Profile Google scholar 

Patricia Lemarchand has long been recognized and awarded for her work on respiratory and cardiovascular gene and cell therapy. She pioneered cardiovascular (Lemarchand et al, PNAS 1992; Circulation Research 1993) and respiratory (Danel et al, Human Gene Therapy 1998) gene therapy. She developed several approaches using adenovirus vectors (Foretz et al, Mol Cell Biol 1999; Tralhao et al, FASEB 2003).

Her research is currently based on translational research, from human stem-cell biology (MESSAGE study, NCT00836732) to cell therapy clinical trials (BONAMI clinical trial, NCT00200707, Roncalli et al, Eur Heart J 2011), including rodent and large animal models of gene and cell therapy (Ferrnandes et al, Cardiovasc Res 2006; Brazza et al, Stem Cells 2016).

Stimulated by the development of iPSC technologies, she has recently developed projects including iPSCs, considering their strong potential to develop new strategies in cell therapy and relevant models for cardiovascular diseases (Jouni et al, J Am Heart Assoc 2015; Si-Tayeb K et al, Disease Models & Mechanisms 2016). Together with Laurent David (scientific director), she coordinates the new iPSC core facility of Nantes, that prepares iPSCs for academic and industrial research projects. The iPSC core facility mainly focuses on human iPSCs from healthy individuals and patients with complex genetic diseases, to use these iPSCs to establish physiopathology models, and on rodent iPSCs dedicated to regenerative medicine and pre-clinical trials.
