SUMMARY
From 2014 the group participates in the European project: “Defining the role of xeno-directed and autoimmune events in patients receiving animal-derived bioprosthetic heart valves”-TRANSLINK to investigate the role of immune reactions in the deterioration of implanted biological prosthetic valves (FP7-Health-2013-INNOVATION-1). In this project our group investigates the contribution of oxidative and nitrosative stress as effectors of deterioration of bioprosthesis valve. The results of the TRANSLINK project may strongly impact the treatment of heart valve diseases by extending the duration of the bioprostheses implanted, improving morbid-mortality in patients with heart valves diseases and allowing the indication of bioprosthetic heart valves in younger patients.
