Exploring Molecular Pathways for Improved Neural Regeneration in Spinal Cord Injury

University of Portsmouth School of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences
In the UK, 50,000 people currently live with spinal cord injury (SCI), and an additional 2,500 new cases are reported annually. SCI results in a permanent loss of sensation and movement, serving as a primary cause of paralysis for which effective treatments are currently unavailable. Read more

Cell-biological mechanisms mediating primary cilium mediated interpretation of Shh signalling during vertebrate neuronal differentiation

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
Newborn neurons undergo extensive morphological changes as they polarise to extend axons. In the developing spinal cord, newborn neurons extend axons towards their targets in response to cues from the surrounding tissues. Read more

Targeting ageing and neurodegenerative diseases using the fruit-fly Drosophila melanogaster

Royal Holloway, University of London School of Biological Sciences
In the last 20 years the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster emerged as a pre-eminent model system for studying changes that occur during both normal and pathological ageing (~75 per cent of the genes that cause disease in humans are also found in the fruit fly!). Read more

Short and long-term genetic and behavioural consequences of traumatic brain injury in fruit flies

University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology
General background . How many fingers am I holding up? What day of the week is it? Follow my finger? These three questions are designed to test your sensory, memory and motor neural abilities following an accident; all three systems are affected by a severe deceleration of your brain. Read more

How GABA neurones in the DVC control glucose metabolism

University of Leeds Faculty of Biological Sciences
The Dorsal Vagal Complex (DVC) of the brain is an important regulator of glucose metabolism and food intake. The Nucleus of the Solitary Tract (NTS) in the DVC senses insulin and triggers a neuronal relay to decrease hepatic glucose production (HPG) in rodents. Read more

Using microRNA inhibitors to boost GABAergic inhibition as a genetic therapy for epilepsy

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disease characterised by recurrent spontaneous seizures and cognitive co-morbidities. Current small molecule approaches to treating epilepsy are ineffective in a significant portion of cases, and are associated with substantial adverse effects. Read more
