Clinical trials: Genetic Susceptibility
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Responses Induced by Smoking in Individuals Being Susceptible and Non-Susceptible for Development of COPD
COPD is ranked number 3 by the WHO list of important diseases worldwide and is the only disease with increasing mortality. The pathogenesis of cigarette smoke-induced COPD is obscure, therefore more insight is needed to design…

Indirect Inguinal Hernia, Genetic Predisposition to Disease
Gene Expression and DNA Variation Analysis of Sacs to Identify the Pathophysiology of Indirect Inguinal Hernia
The aim of the project is to show that gene expression levels change in at least one of the GATA6 and T-box transcription factor 3 (TBX3) genes in indirect inguinal hernia sacs, thus revealing that this pathway causes an error in…
