NaCl-mediated programming of macrophage core functions (P13)

Subject Area Immunology
Cell Biology
Term since 2021
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 432325352
 
We could show that elevated sodium levels perturb macrophage migration, phagocytosis, and efferocytosis. However, the precise signalling pathways influenced by sodium intake and the resulting impact on macrophage functions and overall organismal health remain elusive. We now aim to investigate the effects of high-salt diet (HSD) on organ-specific immunity, focusing on the gut-liver axis.
