intro
Our research group seeks to delve into the cellular and molecular bases of pulmonary vascular dysfunction, the gateway to the body for a multitude of agents capable of compromising people's health. Our research places a special focus on understanding endothelial damage and its connection with vascular smooth muscle and the immune system, all of which are very present in the development of cardiovascular diseases. We go from rare or infrequent diseases such as pulmonary arterial hypertension to other cardiopulmonary disorders resulting from exposure to various environmental factors, such as hypoxia, certain pollutants, drugs or respiratory infections. All these cardiopulmonary diseases affect both the lung vasculature and the heart in one way or another. The ultimate goal of our research is to find new targets, biomarkers and therapeutic strategies that contribute, from basic biology and experimental pharmacology, to solving the health challenges of our society.
