Analysis of the role of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells in methotrexate-induced liver toxicity

Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) comprise approximately 50% of the non-parenchymal hepatic cells. They play a vital role in hepatic microcirculation and provide a physiological barrier to the movement of xenobiotics from the bloodstream to hepatic tissue. Read more

Investigating the role of Aquaporins in age related diseases

Physical frailty, with its associated immobility and disability, is a major factor limiting independence among older people. A key contributor to frailty is a decline in muscle mass and strength (sarcopenia) and the burden of sarcopenia is substantial, with a cost to the NHS of ~£2.5bn/pa. Read more

Cardiac Harmony: Modelling Heart Beats with Stem Cells and Code

Despite significant advancements in cardiac research, heart disease remains a leading cause of mortality globally. Unexpected cardiac events can occur even in young, fit individuals engaged in routine activities. Read more

The effect of low protein diet on the development of the neuromuscular system

Age-related sarcopenia is characterised by reduction in the number of myofibres and motor neurons and an additional weakening of the remaining fibres, causing reduction in muscle mass and function. Read more

Comparative Effects of Mediterranean-Style and Carnivore Diets on LDL Aggregation Susceptibility

Heart disease affects almost 8 million people in the UK and results in 27% of all deaths. Atherosclerosis is a form of heart disease whereby plaque builds up in the arteries, reducing blood flow to the heart and potentially leading to cardiac events like heart attacks. Read more

Investigating local invasion in primary and secondary brain tumours

Brain tumours are highly invasive and carry a poor prognosis. Secondary brain tumours or brain metastases (BM) are the most common tumours found in the brain affecting up to one third of patients with solid organ cancer. Read more
