E070 – Experimental surgery

Objectives and lines of research

Objectives

The main objectives are:

a) To study the mediators of the inflammatory response associated with surgical trauma and analyze the compartmentalization of this response in the pericardial cavity and pleural cavity.

b) To study the association between the periaortic fat phenotype and the processes of apoptosis of the arterial tunica media.

c) Proteomic analysis of subcutaneous, epicardial-visceral and perivascular fat and its response to different stimuli

Lines of research

1.Inflammatory mediators in subcutaneous fat tissue and visceral fat

2. Inflammatory response secondary to surgical trauma

3. Tissue degeneration of prosthetic material and material resistance
