IMI Participants: Mirta Milić, Marko Gerić, Goran Gajski
Programme: Erasmus+
Action Type: KA220-HED – Cooperation partnerships in higher education
Field: Higher Education
Duration: 31.1.2022. – 31.1.2025.
Objectives: The Erasmus ToxLearn4EU project was built by a consortium of 7 HEIs and 3 research centres and laboratory. It aims to modernize of Toxicology and Ecotoxicology teaching in Europe and has several objectives and target audiences:
develop and use innovative and free educational resources interactive courses, online PBL) in order to develop high quality digital education
provide innovative content on current hot topics in the field of Toxicology/Ecotoxicology to fit with recent evolution of European Policy (Action Plan: ‘Towards Zero Pollution’) and with job market needs
stimulate interest of students for those fields and limit school dropout by putting students back at the centre of teaching through the use of active pedagogies adapted to digital practice to recreate interactions between students, between students and teachers, and by stimulating their motivation through playful approaches.
The project meets the needs of:
students by stimulating their interest and limiting school dropout, putting them back at the centre of teaching through the use of active pedagogies adapted to digital practice to recreate interactions between students, between students and teachers, and by stimulating their motivation through playful approaches.
teachers by proposing stimulating online courses which can be integrated in their own courses, or by motivating them to design and create their own new innovative courses.
partners by modernizing part of their curricula.
stakeholders of toxicology and ecotoxicology by developing student and lifelong learner competencies adapted to job market and up-to-date to recent changes at the European Level (Green Deal)
European Commission by modifying curricula and developing courses adapted to the Green Deal. This will contribute to reach the ambitious objectives of EU Action Plan Towards Zero Pollution.

Sažetak
Cilj ovog projekta je odrediti da li novosintetizirani oksimski spojevi sprječavaju unos glukoze i samim time rast ljudskih stanica raka prostate te se kao takvi mogu razmatrati kandidatima za antitumorske lijekove. Većina novosintetiziranih oksima koja ćemo ispitati ili su konstantno pozitivno nabijeni kvartarni amini, ili sadrže amino skupine koje bi mogle biti snažno protonirane u fiziološkim uvjetima.
Sažetak: The network aims at fueling urgently needed collaborations in the field of correlated multimodal imaging (CMI), promoting and disseminating its benefits through showcase pipelines, and paving the way for its technological advancement and implementation as a versatile tool in biological and preclinical research. CMI combines two or more imaging modalities to gather information about the same specimen. It creates a composite view of the sample with multidimensional information about its macro-, meso- and microscopic structure, dynamics, function and chemical composition. Since no single imaging technique can reveal all these details, CMI is the only way to understand biomedical processes and diseases mechanistically and holistically. CMI relies on the joint multidisciplinary expertise from biologists, physicists, chemists, clinicians and computer scientists, and depends on coordinated activities and knowledge transfer between academia and industry, and instrument developers and users. Due to its inherently multidisciplinary and cross-functional nature, an interdisciplinary network such as this Action is indispensable for the success of CMI. Nevertheless, there is currently no European network in the field. Existing scattered efforts focus on correlated light and electron microscopy or (pre)clinical hybrid imaging. This Action will consolidate these efforts, establish commonly-accepted protocols and quality standards for existing CMI approaches, identify and showcase novel CMI pipelines, bridge the gap between preclinical and biological imaging, and foster correlation software through networking, workshops and open databases. The network will raise awareness for CMI, train researchers in multimodal approaches, and work towards a scientific mindset that is enthusiastic about interdisciplinary imaging approaches in life sciences.

Bez obzira što su poliaromatski ugljikovodici (PAU) i postojana organska zagađivala (engl. Persistent Organic Pollutants; POPs) intenzivno istraživani tijekom posljednjih nekoliko desetljeća, oni su i dalje s jednakim intenzitetom prisutni u znanstvenim istraživanjima širom svijeta s ciljem određivanja njihove raspodjele u okolišu i procjene utjecaja na ljudsko zdravlje. PAU su složena skupina onečišćujućih tvari koje nastaju nepotpunim izgaranjem organskog materijala. Mnoge zemlje širom svijeta, uključujući Hrvatsku, prate kvalitetu vanjskog zraka putem svojih mreža za praćenje, te se podaci o PAU u zraku koriste za mjere smanjenja emisija. POPs su spojevi čija su zajednička svojstva postojanost, bioakumulacija, otrovnost, i prijenos zračnim masama na velike udaljenosti. S ciljem prestanka ili smanjenja ispuštanja POPs-ova u okoliš, uvedena je Stockholmska konvencija o postojanim organskim zagađivalima. Konvencija je stupila na snagu 2004. god., a 2006. godine Sabor RH proglasio je Zakon o potvrđivanju Stockholmske konvencije o postojanim organskim onečišćujućim tvarima (NN – MU 11/2006). Između ostalog, Konvencijom je propisano pratiti postojeće razine u biotičkom i abiotičkom okolišu.
Na ovom projektu započeta je suradnja sa JU AQUATIKA, koja se nadovezuje na višegodišnju suradnju grupe istraživača iz Hrvatske (Odjel za zdravstvene studije Sveučilišta u Zadru i IMI, Zagreb) i iz Srbije (Institut za fiziku, Hemijski fakultet i Institut za nuklearne znanosti Vinča Univerziteta u Beogradu).

Cilj je ovog projekta optimiranje uvjeta za ekstrakciju potpomognutu mikrovalovima (MAE) 7 kongenera polibromiranih difenil etera (PBDE) iz uzoraka ljudskog mlijeka odabirom pogodne smjese otapala i temperature, te vremena potrebnog za ekstrakciju. Poseban naglasak stavljen je na utjecaj predobrade uzorka ljudskog mlijeka na učinkovitost tehnike MAE. Radi se o prvoj primjeni tehnike MAE za ekstrakciju spojeva PBDE iz uzoraka ljudskog mlijeka u svijetu, a dobiveni rezultati dat će preliminarne podatke o masenim udjelima spojeva PBDE u mlijeku rodilja iz Hrvatske koji će omogućiti i procjenu izloženosti hrvatske populacije spojevima PBDE, a na temelju čega će se moći procijeniti potencijalni rizik za zdravlje ljudi.
Cilj ovdje predloženog istraživanja je odrediti terapijski potencijal novo sintetiziranih spojeva oksimskih derivata piridoksala. Piridoksal je jedan od šest spojeva iz skupine B6 vitamina (piridoksin, piridoksal, piridoksamin i njihovi 5′-fosfati). Pridioksal ima ulogu u metabolizmu aminokiselina, sintezi proteina, živčanih prijenosnika, eritrocita i prostaglanida koji su bitni za homeostazu organizma. Manjak piridoksala uzrokuje anemiju, dermatitis i oštećenje živaca (neuropatija) što je jedna i od posljedica dugoročne izloženosti organofosfatima. Obuhvaćeno istraživanje bit će stoga usmjereno utvrđivanju kinetičkih konstanti relevantnih za istraživanja oksimskih protuotrova te provjere toksičnosti na živčanim stanicama (SH-SY5Y) ciljnih organa djelovanja oksima.
