Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neuro-psychiatric disorder which is characterized by the formation of senile plaques (SPs), extracellular deposits of amyloid beta-peptides (Aβ) following intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) of the microtubule-associated protein tau. Both cause neuronal degeneration, extensive loss of neurons and synaptic loss...
January 2017 is a great month for all the Syncrosome Laboratory and Commercial team. On Sunday 29th of January, all the team will be leaving for the French Alpes on a 2-day Team building experience. Our goal is to summarize Syncrosome’s 2016 life and events to...
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare cardiopulmonary disorder characterized by progressive obliteration of small pulmonary arterioles that leads to increased pulmonary vascular resistance. Because of impaired blood flow inpulmonary arteries, right ventricular pressure (RVSP) rises, ultimately leading toright ventricular failure and premature death. This...
To characterize the expression in skin nerves of native (n-syn) and misfolded phosphorylated (p-syn) α-synucleins in pure autonomic failure (PAF) and idiopathic Parkinson disease (IPD). The specific aims were to (1) define the importance of n-syn and p-syn as disease biomarkers and (2) ascertain differences...
Temperature sensitive anti-inflammatory Novel therapeuthic target against IBD Ulcerative colitis (UC) together with Crohn’s disease (CD), are Inflammatory bowel diseases (mouse IBD). The chronic and relapsing inflammation of all or part of the digestive tract causes severe diarrhea, pain, fatigue and weight loss. Researchers currently...
The end of 2016 is near, and with the closure of this year comes the joy of Christmas, holidays and celebrations, but before we head off to spend time with our families, we would like to thank you for your devotion throughout 2016. Let’s remember...
Myocardial infarction (MI) results from a biphasic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury to the heart. The disease is linked to cardiomyocyte apoptosis and further along to inflammation-based tissue damage. Despite considerable effort, therapeutic interventions to disrupt this injury pattern are not optimal. Indeed, the inflammation's multifactorial nature complicates...
For more than 6 years now, Syncrosome has worked as a preclinical CRO accredited by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research for Research Tax Credits (CIR). Our recognition procures a significant financial benefit for French companies wishing to pursue their R & D work in Cardiovascular, Central...
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), consisting of Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), involves chronic inflammation of all or part of the digestive tract and millions are affected around the world. Researchers currently believe that an unregulated immune response to resident intestinal bacteria, influenced by...
