The GLYCOCALYX project investigates the role of glycocalyces in cellular functions and disease. It trains doctoral candidates in physics, chemistry, and biology to develop tools for studying glycocalyx dynamics and their implications in health and disease.
Virtually all mammalian cells are covered with a dense and complex coat of sugar chains (glycans) known as the glycocalyx, which is essential for multicellular life.
Interfacing the cell surface with the cellular environment, glycocalyces accomplish critical functions in signalling and communication between cells, controlling tissue development, homeostasis and repair, inflammatory and immune responses, neuronal connectivity, and symbiosis with gastrointestinal bacteria.
However, when dysregulat…
