Research Activity:
The research projects have been focused on the pathogenesis of systemic autoimmune diseases, in particular on the link between infections and autoimmune responce, gene expression profiling and epigentic aspects in autoimmune diseases including systemic sclerosis, seronegative spondiloarthropaties. Gene expression profiling has been performed also before and after biotechnologic therapy. Another project deals with primary immunodeficiencies and autoimmunity.

Topic Description Research area
The autoinflammatory diseases are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by a genetic mutation able to modify the immune response and in particular innate immunity cells function. The clinical onset is characterized by the appearance of a continuous or sub-continuous inflammatory picture and is represented by fever, articular and/or cutaneous and/or serological involvement usually in the first years of life. Immunology
Immunodeficienze primitive Le immunodeficienze primitive sono caratterizzate da un difetto dell'immunità innata o adattativa dovuto nella maggioranza dei casi ad una mutazione genetica. Sono caratterizzate da infezioni frequenti, maggiore suscettibilità a neoplasie e possono presentarsi con malattie autoimmuni, autoinfiammatorie o allergiche. Immunology
Autoimmune diseases are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by a common triad represented by genetic predisposition, environmental influence, dysregulation of the immune system with different clinical presentation according to the different pathology. Immunology
