Novel Immuno-Metabolism Pathways to Combat Obesity and Insulin Resistance
Nutritional unbalance develops the obesity led to diabetes and accompanied by insulin resistance is being the epidemics of the 21st century. Inflammation of adipose tissue serves one notable pathway that is driving the development of dysfunctional metabolic state, leading to hyperglycaemia and other pathophysiology complications. Within the adipose tissue, a pivotal role in modulating interactions […] Read More >
SK4 K+ channel blockers: a new treatment for cardiac atrial fibrillation
We discovered a previously unidentified target in the heart, namely the SK4 calcium-activated K+ channels, which are functionally expressed in pacemaker cells as well as in atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes. They are crucial for proper cardiac function and represent a completely new therapeutic target for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. SK4 channel blockers successfully prevented […] Read More >

MULTI SENSOR – Multi Modal Recording System for Behavioral Tracking
It is clear today that brain activity of a restrained (or sedated) animal is completely different from that of a freely behaving animal.That is why neuroscientists are seeking to find ways to study animals freely behaving on their natural grounds.TAU’s interdisciplinary research has led to the development of the MULTI SENSOR – Multi Modal Recording […] Read More >
The Cohen Rosenthal Diabetic Hypertensive Rat (CRDH) model
The construction of the Cohen Rosenthal Diabetic Hypertensive Rat (CRDH) model was initiated nearly a decade ago by cross-breeding between the Cohen Diabetic rat (CDR) and the SHR. The CDR is a rodent model that expresses the following phenotypes: when fed regular diet, it is non-diabetic; when fed a diabetogenic diet, it invariably develops diabetes […] Read More >
