Overview

Jürgen Bernhagen is affiliated with Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München in Germany and has a research focus spanning immunology, microbiology, and medicine.

Their work involves multiple subfields, including immunology, cellular and molecular neuroscience, molecular biology, oncology, and pharmacology. They have contributed extensively to topics such as macrophage migration inhibitory factor, nuclear receptors and signaling, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases, galectins and cancer biology, apelin-related biomedical research, chemokine receptors and signaling, and immune cells in cancer.

Bernhagen's recent papers include the following publications:

  • Neuroimmune cardiovascular interfaces control atherosclerosis (2022, Nature)
  • Targeting the CCL2-CCR2 axis for atheroprotection (2022, European Heart Journal)
  • Histone Deacetylase 9 Activates IKK to Regulate Atherosclerotic Plaque Vulnerability (2020, Circulation Research)
  • Macrophage migration inhibitory factor exerts pro-proliferative and anti-apoptotic effects via CD74 in murine hepatocellular carcinoma (2021, British Journal of Pharmacology)
  • Designed CXCR4 mimic acts as a soluble chemokine receptor that blocks atherogenic inflammation by agonist-specific targeting (2020, Nature Communications)

The scientist frequently collaborates with others, with key co-authors including Martin Dichgans, Omar El Bounkari, Christian Weber, Markus Brandhofer, and Aphrodite Kapurniotu.

Bernhagen regularly publishes in several venues, notably bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), The FASEB Journal, Nature Communications, Atherosclerosis, and Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences.
