Cellular dysfunction, the fundamental basis of all human diseases, underpins the pathophysiology of numerous disorders. This program presents a overview of research initiatives focused on advancing human health through the development of diagnostic, preventive, and therapeutic strategies. These projects are conducted in collaboration with multiple research institutions and are supported by diverse grant funding mechanisms.
Projects: Study of the molecular mechanisms of familial Mediterranean fever using genetic engineering and functional genomics, Development of induced pluripotent stem cells bank of patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever
Web page: Not specified
The aim of this project is to establish a bank of induced pluripotent stem cells from patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) using cell reprogramming approaches for a more comprehensive study of disease molecular mechanisms. In Armenia, FMF prevalence is about 14-100 per 10,000 inhabitants, depending on the region. For the comprehensive research of the disease, it is necessary to have appropriate cell platforms that will contain pathogenic mutations of the FMF. Created stem cell bank ...
