Ion channel signalling in cancer cells

University of York York Biomedical Research Institute

Our cells constantly sense and transport ions present in their environment. From embryonic development to epilepsy to heart disease to cancer, our cells’ ability to respond to changes in the ionic microenvironment is essential for healthy ageing. Read more

Dissecting the interplay of extracellular vesicle signalling and tryptophan metabolism in schizophrenia pathogenesis

University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology

L-kynurenine (KYN) and kynurenic acid (KYNA) are metabolites of the kynurenine pathway (KP) of tryptophan degradation and have been found to be increased in the brains of patients with schizophrenia. Read more

In silico modelling of endocannabinoid evolution

University of Worcester Research School

In the brain, the endocannabinoid (eCB) system maintains adequate neurotransmission (Lu and Mackie 2016). Indeed, the eCB system provides a negative feedback mechanism, preventing over-activation of synaptic transmission. Read more
