We wish our colleague Cristina Bauset a productive and happy stay in Dublin, at the Conway Institute of Biomolecular and Biomedical Research, University College Dublin, where she will be under the supervision of Dr. Mario Manresa. During her stay, Cristina will carry out research to identify the fibroblast-related mediators and molecular mechanisms involved in the development of intestinal fibrosis in IBD.

In our article published recentlyin the British Journal of Pharmacology, “Abacavir causes leukocyte/platelet crosstalk by neutrophil P2X7 receptor release of sLOX” we analyze the role of neutrophils–and specifically the secretomereleased by abacavir-treatedneutrophils – in the platelet activation that precedes thrombosis. We have observed that neutrophils are target cells in abacavir-induced thrombosis and that sLOX-1 could be the missing link in abacavir-associated cardiovascular risk.

Our group has been recognized as a research group of excellence for the fourth consecutive time by the Department of Education, Culture and Sports (Conselleria d’Educació, Cultura i Esport ) of the Valencian regional government (Generalitat Valenciana) as part of its Prometeo programme for research groups of excellence. We have received a 4-year grant for the project “Pharmacology of the hepato-gastrointestinal tract: analysis of cellular and molecular targets for the treatment of fibrosis”.

Who has recently returned from a 3-month stay at ETH Zurich in the laboratory of Prof. Cornelia Halin Winter (Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences, Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences). Mariam has been investigating the functional relevance of neutrophil extracellular traps on neutrophil entry into lymph nodes and their effects on adaptive immune response. Welcome Mariam on Facebook!
