Network Synergies in Tissue Homeostasis and Stromal Prevention of Inflammatory Disease.
Inflammation has evolved to protect us from the outside world. However, in doing so, it consumes large amounts of energy and causes collateral damage, thus requiring strict control on multiple levels. While the mechanisms that govern inflammation once ongoing are well defined, we lack basic knowledge of the processes that regulate its actual onset in vivo. Only by understanding the mechanisms that orchestrate tissue stress responses and defend against unwanted inflammation will we pave the way for new therapeutic approaches in future precision medicine: Not only treating inflammation once it is active, but preventing inflammatory disease from developing in the first place. I hypothesise…
