Drug Targets.
By using the insights previously gained from our omics analyses, functional tests and imaging experiments, we aim to identify potential drug targets for treating immune dysregulation and severe inflammatory complications triggered by viral infections. This process involves screening for molecules or existing drugs in an effort to perturb pathways that modulate immune responses or viral replication. Through target validation studies in cellular and animal models, we are able to study both the pathways involved and also the efficacy of potential drug candidates. This integrated approach aims to accelerate the development of targeted therapies for improving outcomes in patients with inborn errors of immunodeficiency.

Modulating the Immune Response as a Potential Treatment for HLH
Through targeted manipulation of immune cells, we try to modulate the altered immune response of patients with HLH. Find out more on our advancements in Tommaso's paper on BioRxiv here→.
