Consortium focused on developing computer and physical models of the airway system for patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Developing accurate models will better predict how asthma and COPD develop, since current methods can only assess the severity of disease. They aim to bridge the gaps in clinical management of airways-based disease by providing reliable models that predict disease progression and the response to treatment for each person with asthma or COPD. A data management platform provides a secure and sustainable infrastructure that semantically integrates the clinical, physiological, genetic, and experimental data produced with existing biomedical knowledge from allied consortia and public databases. This resource will be available for analysis and modeling, and will facilitate sharing, collaboration and publication within AirPROM and with the broader community. Currently the AirPROM knowledge portal is only accessible by AirPROM partners.

Consortium focused on identifying the foundational pathways responsible for the aging of the brain, with a focus on Late Onset Alzheimer's disease. They aim to identify the interactions through which the aging phenotype develops in normal and in disease conditions; modeling novel pathways and their evolutionary properties to design experiments that identify druggable targets. As early steps of neurodegenerative disorders are expected to impact synapse function the project will focus in particular on pre- or postsynaptic protein networks. The concept is to identify subsets of pathways with two unique druggable hallmarks, the validation of interactions occurring locally in subregions of neurons and a human and/or primate accelerated evolutionary signature. The consortium will do this through six approaches: * identification of interacting protein networks from recent Late-Onset Alzheimer Disease-Genome Wide Association Studies (LOAD-GWAS) data, * experimental validation of interconnected networks working in subregion of a neuron (such as dendrites and dendritic spines), * inclusion of these experimentally validated networks in larger networks obtained from available databases to extend possible protein interactions, * identification of human and/or primate positive selection either in coding or in regulatory gene sequences, * manipulation of these human and/or primate accelerated evolutionary interacting proteins in human neurons derived from induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) * modeling predictions in drosophila and novel mouse transgenic models * validation of new druggable targets and markers as a proof-of-concept towards the prevention and cure of aging cognitive defects. The scientists will share results and know-how on Late-Onset Alzheimer Disease-Genome Wide Association Studies (LOAD-GWAS) gene discovery, comparative functional genomics in mouse and drosophila models, in mouse transgenic approaches, research on human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) and their differentiation in vitro and modeling pathways with emphasis on comparative and evolutionary aspects. The four European small to medium size enterprises (SMEs) involved will bring their complementary expertise and will ensure translation of project results to clinical application.

http://www.compact-research.org/

Consortium to reduce delivery and targeting bottlenecks for developing novel innovative biopharmaceutical based medicines. The project aims to shed new light on the obstacles biopharmaceuticals (medicines based on biological molecules such as proteins, peptides or nucleic acids) need to overcome to get to where they are needed in the body. The team will then use this information to develop and validate biopharmaceutical formulations to deliver these novel drugs to their targets. By finding more effective ways of administering these biopharmaceutical drugs, and improving their ability to travel through the body to where they are needed, COMPACT will allow more patients to benefit from biopharmaceuticals. Furthermore, designing less invasive administration routes and reducing the dose (and therefore the side effects) and frequency of administration will help to improve patient compliance with treatments.

Project that aims to develop new treatment strategies based on knowledge of cellular dysfunction in diabetes. They will perform a detailed organelle diagnosis based on both focused and systems biology approaches, which will provide the scientific rationale for the design of specific interventions to boost the capacity of beta cells and brown adipocytes to regain homeostatic control. They propose that only by understanding the complex molecular mechanisms triggering cellular dysfunction in diabetes, and by integrating this knowledge at the systems level, will it be possible to develop interventional therapies that protect and restore beta cell and (Brown adipose tissue) BAT function. The ultimate goal is to offer individual therapeutic choices based on both genetic information and organelle diagnosis.
