    Intestinal bacteria and human gut types

    The type of bacteria that colonize the human gut does not just influence our digestion and well-being. Metagenome sequencing has provided an international consortium involving scientists from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory at the University Hospital of Heidelberg with evidence that certain individuals have different gut types with different types of bacteria. Such individuals not only differ in their predisposition to disease, but also…

    Kathrin Thedieck – the art of deciphering signalling

    The molecule mTOR is one of the most important cellular switch centres it controls cellular growth in relation to the availability of nutrients and also plays a key role in the pathogenesis of cancer neurodegenerative diseases and ageing. Dr. Kathrin Thedieck from the Institute of Biology III at the University of Freiburg is interested in solving the question as to how insulin growth factors or nutrients such as amino acids influence the complex…

    Interactions between the genome and the environment

    Parental neglect appears to lead to epigenetic changes in children, which result in behavioural problems in later years. This is one issue amongst the many that were addressed at the colloquium “Gene und Umwelt – Wie wir werden, was wir sind” (Genes and the environment – how we become what we are) recently organized by the Daimler and Benz Foundation in Berlin.

    Vascular grafts: biomolecules to prevent blood vessels from reclosing

    Obstructed blood vessels can be operated on and adequate blood flow restored. However, stents and bypasses are often subject to high reclosure rates. Excessive immune reactions close to where the intervention took place might prevent the regeneration of adjacent vessel walls and even lead to reclosure. New interventions involving RNA interference seem to be a way out of this dilemma.

    How a natural antibiotic found in sweat affects microorganisms

    The skin creates a barrier between the body and its environment. Natural antibiotics that can kill potential pathogens such as bacteria or fungi represent an additional level of protection by the immune system. Dermcidin one such antibiotic produced in human sweat glands is active against a number of microorganisms on the skin. A team of scientists from the University Hospital Tübingen and the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology were…

    Klaus Pfizenmaier: bridging the fields between immunology and biomedicine

    Prof. Dr. Klaus Pfizenmaier has been focusing on cytokines, and in particular on the tumour necrosis factor TNF, for the last 25 years. Pfizenmaier and his team of researchers at the Institute of Cell Biology and Immunology at the University of Stuttgart have unravelled numerous facets of TNF, which is a key and versatile signalling molecule. These discoveries have led to the development of groundbreaking therapy concepts and drug candidates for…

    Alexander Titz: molecular design to combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria

    Pseudomonas aeruginosa has become an important cause of infection, and is often picked up in hospitals, especially by patients with weakened immune systems. It can cause respiratory and urinary tract infections, as well as lead to infections on implants and wounds. P. aeruginosa lives in a gel-like matrix, a so-called biofilm that is highly resistant to antibiotics, making it very difficult to eradicate. Dr. Alexander Titz and his team at the…

    Gundram Jung – a pioneer in antibody-mediated cancer immunotherapy

    Physicist, medical doctor, researcher and now also a founder of a company – Professor Dr. Gundram Jung’s career has never gone in a completely straight line although his goal has always been the same: to develop innovative immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer. Jung’s genetically modified antitumour antibodies are now close to clinical application.

    Depression, rheumatism, sickle cell anaemia – elevated levels of substance P in blood plasma might be an alarm signal. The molecule plays an important role in generating an inflammatory response. Commercially available tests involving microtitre plates are time-consuming and expensive.

    Researchers are challenging a common model of immunology

    Up to now, scientists have assumed that mast cells, a certain type of immune cells, play a central role in the development of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Current studies conducted at the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ) have now provided evidence to refute this assumption. Now it is only the mast cells’ central function in allergies that remains undisputed.

    Papillomaviruses as cancer-causing agents and how they can be fought off

    Studies presented at the recent International Papillomavirus Conference in Berlin demonstrate that vaccination can prevent infection with the types of HPV that cause the majority of cervical cancers. New improved vaccines to prevent HPV infections as well as therapeutic vaccines that are effective in people that are already infected are currently being developed. In addition, research has shown that other cancers can also be caused by infective…

    Autoimmune Diseases Affect Cancer Risk

    In a recently published study, scientists of the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ) have calculated the interrelations between autoimmune diseases and cancer of the digestive tract. They discovered that many autoimmune diseases increase the cancer risk, while others, such as rheumatism, are associated with a significantly lower bowel cancer risk. These differing impacts on cancer risk may be attributable to the…

    Dioxin-like Chemical Messenger Makes Brain Tumors More Aggressive

    Scientists from German Cancer Research Center and Heidelberg University have discovered a new dioxin receptor-coupled metabolic pathway which weakens the immune system and promotes the growth of malignant gliomas. Glioma is the most frequent and most malignant brain tumor in adults. In Germany, about 4,500 people are newly diagnosed with glioma every year.

    Astonishing discovery: iron-overloading of macrophages is the cause of venous leg ulcers

    Around three to five per cent of people in industrial nations suffer from chronic venous leg ulcers. Elderly people are particularly prone to developing these chronic wounds. A dermatologist from Ulm has now discovered the reason why chronic venous leg ulcers fail to heal even after months or years. The scientific community is astonished by the new findings.

    Ute Schepers – the therapeutic potential of small RNAs and molecular transporters

    Small RNAs can specifically interfere with cellular mechanisms; or more precisely, with the cells’ protein biosynthesis machinery. Scientists have therefore decided to exploit this potential by using small RNAs against cancer cells or cells damaged in other ways. But the question arises as to how the small RNAs can reach the site where their role is to prevent the generation of dangerous proteins. Dr. Ute Schepers and her team from the Karlsruhe…

    In the future, when you walk into a doctor’s surgery or hospital, you could be asked not just about your allergies and blood group, but also about your gut type. Scientists at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, Germany, and collaborators in the international MetaHIT consortium, have found that humans have three different gut types.

Many of the antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections have become ineffective as a great many bacteria have become resistant to them. Freiburg-based FreiBiotics GmbH is looking for completely new classes of antimicrobial substances. A screening method that has been developed over the last few years based on biosensors makes the identification of new substance classes more…
