Investigating inflammation in the brain Neuroinflammation refers to the inflammatory response within the brain. Our main research focus is to investigate the role of neuroinflammation in the diseased and healthy brain. Microglia are the major immune cells in the brain. Therefore, the majority of our projects aim to explore the function of these cells and to determine how they contribute to health

An inflammatory protein inside the brain Transcriptomic studies strongly support the role of galectin-3 as an important molecule in neuroinflammation. Recently, our group demonstrated the key role of galectin-3 in Alzheimer’s disease pathology. Microglial function depends on the expression of inflammatory proteins. Transcriptomic studies strongly support the role of galectin-3 as an important mole

Understanding the early stages of Alzheimer's disease is important for detecting the disease earlier and for finding effective treatments that can slow or even stop disease progression. Before the presence of plaques and neuronal loss in patient brains, subtle changes are taking place in normal, homeostatic processes, including neuroinflammation. We examine alterations in microglia in the early st

how brain cells interact Cell-to-cell communication is crucial for regulating cellular functions in response to the environment. To understand how this communication works is important if we want to influence the inflammatory response with novel treatments. We investigate the interactions between neurons and glial cells, particularly microglia, before the development of extensive plaque pathology.

For a long time, the brain was believed to be deprived of the peripheral immune cells due to the blood-brain barrier. In recent decades, studies have revealed that peripheral immune cells can enter the brain under certain circumstances. We investigate how systemic inflammation affects neuroinflammation. Our main focus is to compare the phenotypes of brain-resident microglia to monocytes invading t

Cellular waste products need to be cleared from the brain to maintain a healthy environment for neurons. We investigate how inflammation affects this clearance.

Most in vitro research on microglial cells is done using mouse-derived cell lines even though murine microglial cells differ from their human counterparts. To address this limitation, we seek to establish human neuronal and microglial cell lines. The aim is to develop human in vitro model systems and to explore their potential in cell regenerative therapies. Our human neuronal and microglial cell
