Early life origins of lung ageing: early life exposures and lung function decline in adulthood in two European cohorts aged 28-73 years (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: Early life environment is essential for lung growth and maximally attained lung function. Whether early life exposures impact on lung function decline in adulthood, an indicator of lung ag
Sex-specific associations of cardiovascular risk factors with carotid stiffness - results from the SAPALDIA cohort study (Publications)
OBJECTIVE: Manifestation of cardiovascular disease (CVD) occurs with clear sex differences. Carotid stiffness (CS) parameters are increasingly used for CVD risk assessment but the sex-specific associa
Reproducibility of oscillometrically measured arterial stiffness indices: results of the SAPALDIA 3 cohort study (Publications)
Background. There is an increasing interest in oscillometric arterial stiffness measurement for cardiovascular risk stratification. We assessed reproducibility of the cuff-based arterial stiffness mea

Inhibitors of PEX14 disrupt protein import into glycosomes and kill <em>Trypanosoma</em> parasites (Publications)
The parasitic protists of the Trypanosoma genus infect humans and domestic mammals, causing severe mortality and huge economic losses. The most threatening trypanosomiasis is Chagas disease, affecting
