The group aims to significantly contribute to the understanding of the molecular mechanisms
involved in neurologic and psychiatric diseases, in particular, chronic pain, Alzheimer's and
Lesch-Nyhan diseases and schizophrenia. An integrative multidisciplinary approach is applied
including in silico, in vitro, animal models, and human research. In this context, G proteincoupled receptors, in particular, the mu-, delta-, and kappa-opioid receptors, cannabinoid CB1
and CB2 and dopamine D2 receptor, as well as ion channels, such as TRPV, are used as
therapeutic targets. In addition, colloidal systems that incorporate complexed metals which
allow the release of CO for pain modulation are included. The investigations also incorporate
brain delivery of Alzheimer’s antiamyloidogenic agents in the form of encapsulated dendrimers
using nano-vehicles that can be extended to other pathologies. Functional studies are
complemented by synchrotron-based imaging techniques on human brain samples.
