Regulation of the Y-secretase complex and Aß generation during AD by GPR3 KU Leuven
The orphan G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) GPR3 regulates activity of the γ-secretase complex in the absence of an effect on Notch proteolysis, providing a potential therapeutic target for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, given the vast resources required to develop and evaluate any new therapy for AD and the multiple failures involved in translational research, demonstration of the pathophysiological relevance of research findings in ...
Unraveling the role of Candida albicans and its G-protein coupled receptor, Gpr1, in the gastrointestinal tract microbiome KU Leuven
Modulating GPCR signaling through development of β-arrestin peptidomimetics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
central role in modern medicine. Their signaling represents a complex process involving both G
protein- and arrestin-dependent pathways. However, the molecular bases and functional
consequences of this signaling pleiotropy mostly remain to be elucidated and this requires innovative
pharmacological tools that would selectively ...

Sabbatical Johan Leemans: Greek Patristic Sermons (GPS KU Leuven
In this period I would like to achieve four things: 1. Finishing publications for which a lot of preliminary research has already been done: a Sources Chrétiennes volume with 6 martyr panegyrics by Gregory van Nyssa (in collaboration with M. Cassin, IRHT) and the translation and commentary of 45 Ascension and Pentecost sermons from Late Antiquity (in collaboration with R. Bishop, free collaborator). Under contract with resp. Cerf and Mohr ...
