S1P in the development of atherosclerosis: roles of haemodynamic wall shear stress and endothelial permeability (2021)
Journal Article
Warboys, C. M., & Weinberg, P. D. (2021). S1P in the development of atherosclerosis: roles of haemodynamic wall shear stress and endothelial permeability. Tissue Barriers, https://doi.org/10.1080/21688370.2021.1959243

Atherosclerosis is characterised by focal accumulations of lipid within the arterial wall, thought to arise from effects of haemodynamic wall shear stress (WSS) on endothelial permeability. Identifying pathways that mediate effects of shear on permea... Read More about S1P in the development of atherosclerosis: roles of haemodynamic wall shear stress and endothelial permeability.

Leucine-Rich α-2-Glycoprotein 1 Suppresses Endothelial Cell Activation Through ADAM10-Mediated Shedding of TNF-α Receptor (2021)
Journal Article
Pang, K. T., Ghim, M., Liu, C., Tay, H. M., Fhu, C. W., Chia, R. N., …Wang, X. (2021). Leucine-Rich α-2-Glycoprotein 1 Suppresses Endothelial Cell Activation Through ADAM10-Mediated Shedding of TNF-α Receptor. Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 9, https://doi.org/10.3389/fcell.2021.706143

Elevated serum concentrations of leucine-rich α-2-glycoprotein (LRG1) have been reported in patients with inflammatory, autoimmune, and cardiovascular diseases. This study aims to investigate the role of LRG1 in endothelial activation. LRG1 in endoth...

The zebrafish cardiac endothelial cell – roles in development and regeneration (2021)
Journal Article
Pellet-Many, C., Lowe, V., & Wisniewski, L. (2021). The zebrafish cardiac endothelial cell – roles in development and regeneration. Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease,

In zebrafish, the spatiotemporal development of the vascular system is well described due to its stereotypical nature. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms orchestrating post embryonic vascular development, the maintenance of vascular homeo...

The role of mitochondria in cocaine addiction (2021)
Journal Article
Thornton, C., Grad, E., & Yaka, R. (in press). The role of mitochondria in cocaine addiction. Biochemical Journal,

The incidence of cocaine abuse is increasing especially in the UK where the rates are among the highest in Europe. In addition to its role as a psychostimulant, cocaine has profound effect on brain metabolism, impacting glycolysis and impairing oxida...
