Wong, S., Brown, A. D., Abrahams, A. B., Nurzak, A. N., Eltaher, H. M., Sykes, D. A., Veprintsev, D. B., Fone, K. C. F., Dixon, J. E., & King, M. V. (2024). A Modified Cell-Penetrating Peptide Enhances Insulin and Oxytocin Delivery across an RPMI 2650 Nasal Epithelial Cell Barrier In Vitro. Pharmaceutics, 16(10), Article 1267. https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics16101267

Background/Objectives: Peptide-based treatments represent an expanding area and require innovative approaches to enhance bioavailability. Combination with cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) is an attractive strategy to improve non-invasive delivery acr...

GABAergic and inflammatory changes in the frontal cortex following neonatal PCP plus isolation rearing, as a dual-hit neurodevelopmental model for schizophrenia (2024)
Journal Article
Cale, J. A., Chauhan, E. J., Cleaver, J. J., Fusciardi, A. R., McCann, S., Waters, H. C., Žavbi, J., & King, M. V. (2024). GABAergic and inflammatory changes in the frontal cortex following neonatal PCP plus isolation rearing, as a dual-hit neurodevelopmental model for schizophrenia. Molecular Neurobiology, 61, 6968-6983. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12035-024-03987-y

The pathogenesis of schizophrenia begins in early neurodevelopment and leads to excitatory-inhibitory imbalance. It is therefore essential that preclinical models used to understand disease, select drug targets and evaluate novel therapeutics encompa...
