Airway diseases such as chronic sinus inflammation and asthma are frequent, the cause of severe sinusitis and asthma is unknown. Staphylococcus aureus could be essential in the development of severe airway disease by producing certain toxins, which create a strong inflammation. We hypothesize that this new mechanism is involved in asthma and sinusitis from early childhood to adult life.

Advanced studies towards knowledge on Lyssavirus Encephalitis Pathogenesis improving options for survival. KU Leuven
The overall aim of ASKLEPIOS is to unravel and increase our understanding of the mechanisms that govern pathogenesis of rabies virus (RABV) infection, in pursuit of the rational identification of novel therapeutic leads for rabies encephalitis. Several studies have been conducted over the past decades attempting to unravel the pathogenesis of this deadly disease, however with limited success. New knowledge on the mechanisms of the RABV ...

PAVING THE ROAD FOR PRECISION MEDICINE: THE ROLE OF STRESS MONITORING AND INFLAMMATION IN DEPRESSION KU Leuven
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), in many patients, takes the form of a chronic, relapsing-remitting disorder. During past decades, it has become clear that biological changes may underlie MDD (1) . These changes do not only suggest a biological base of mood disorders, but may also be used as tool to predict response and relapse and can hence provide valuable information as to the selection of adequate treatment for patients with MDD.
