Gunther Marsche is a biochemist and Associate Professor at the
Institute of Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology
of the Medical University of Graz.
Research interests:
A major research topic of his laboratory is to understand the role of inflammation and oxidant stress
in lipid metabolism and the pathogenesis of atherothrombotic diseases. His research group investigates
the molecular basis underlying the loss of protective effects of high-density lipoproteins during
inflammation and disturbed cholesterol homeostasis of leukocytes, platelets and endothelial cells,
using biophysical chemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, and mass spectrometry.
