Edwin J. A. Veldhuizen - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Edwin J. A. Veldhuizen is affiliated with the Department of Infectious Diseases and Immunology, Division Molecular Host Defence, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Utrecht University in Utrecht, The Netherlands. As an expert in infectious diseases, Edwin Veldhuizen's research primarily focuses on host-defense peptides, their roles in immune responses, and their potential applications in treating infections. His work contributes significantly to understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying host-pathogen interactions.

Research Contributions

Edwin J. A. Veldhuizen has made substantial contributions to the field of infectious diseases, particularly in the study of host defense peptides such as cathelicidins. His research explores their antimicrobial properties and mechanisms by which they modulate immune responses. Notable studies include the enhancement of macrophage responses against Streptococcus suis, the antiviral activity of cathelicidins against infectious bronchitis virus, and the modulation of immune responses via outer membrane vesicles. His work also delves into the potential therapeutic applications of synthetic antibiotics and host defense peptides against biofilm-forming pathogens.
