Kidney: Urine Proteins – Proteinuria
Differentiation between Glomerular and Tubular Nephropathies Proteinuria means an elevated amount of proteins that are excreted within the urine. An early differentiation between high and low molecular weight urine proteins is important for diagnosis and therapy. High molecular weight proteins appear in the urine when glomeruli in the kidney are not functioning properly. Low molecular…

Graded Implants for Tendon-Bone Connections
DFG-Funded Research Unit RU 2180 Tissue transitions have a particular importance in the musculoskeletal system. They are frequently impaired by pathological processes. Current treatment modalities are hardly able to restore original functionality and largely fail within the long run. Implants might provide solutions to this challenge but implants for tissue transitions are still lacking. We…

Project funding by Erwin Röver-Stiftung: ‘A biomarker for aseptic implant loosening?’
In aseptic loosening of arthoplasties (hip, knee), inflammation – not caused by external triggers such as bacteria – leads to dissolution of the bone and progressive implant loosening. These processes are the main cause of follow-up surgery. The triggering factors of the inflammation have not yet been clarified. While abrasion or corrosion (‘particle disease’) of…
