Официальное название
Western Sweden Systemic Sclerosis Project - A Study on Underlying Mechanisms for Disease Development and Predictors of Disease Activity and Treatment Response in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis
Обзор
The main aim of the project is to identify key-factors involved in the development and progression of Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), a chronic invalidating rheumatic disease characterized by high mortality and insufficient treatment options. A cohort of patients with SSc will be collected at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg, Skaraborg Hospital in Skövde, and Södra Älvsborg Hospital in Borås (Sweden). Thanks to a holistic approach including integrated analysis of blood, and skin samples as well as DNA, and with the use of state-of-the-art methods, this project aims to identify factors (e.g. genes, proteins, metabolites, and immune cell types) associated with the development of SSc and with the progression to a more aggressive phenotype. Functional studies using in vitro model systems and patient specimens will be also implemented. The findings of the current project could lead to the identification of possible diagnostic and prognostic markers for the disease as well as potential drug targets. This cohort will be also linked to the European Scleroderma Trial and Research (EUSTAR), which is an international SSc research network aiming to coordinate research activities on SSc from groups all over Europe in order to improve treatment, quality of life and mortality of patients with SSc.
