Our research
Chronic inflammatory diseases
Chronic inflammation damages any part of the human body and is a cause of diverse diseases. RDCE currently focuses on creating a new concept by clarifying the pathophysiology of chronic inflammatory diseases by protein assay such as cytokines and chemokines. Inflammatory endotype could predict severe disease and support correct drug selection, monitoring, and treatment decision. Through collaboration with academia, institutions, and companies in Europe, we create unique clinical value of potential biomarkers and deliver the research seeds to the IVD products.
Disease area
- Respiratory (Asthma, COPD, ILD)
- Allergy (including Atopic dermatitis)
- Kidney diseases
- Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer‘s disease, Multiple Sclerosis)
- Thrombosis
We are interested in discovering new disease areas for the application.

Regenerative cell medicine
Since 1968, Sysmex has provided IVD testing in the fields of health management, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis, which require diagnostic systems of a high standard. Recently we start applying our technologies to the pharmaceutical manufacturing process in regenerative cell therapy. Sysmex has three leading measurement platforms and know-how in the gene, cell, and protein analysis. We believe that our platforms contribute to your quality control process by measuring biological components in your interest.
Technology
Main Sysmex technologies in our laboratory are Immunochemistry and Haematology. These IVD devices have the strong advantage of transforming your research into a diagnostic test.
