It was... Read More about SBRC-Nottingham: sustainable routes to platform chemicals from C1 wastes Gases.

Deficits in object-in-place but not relative recency performance in the APPswe/PS1dE9 mouse model of Alzheimer's disease: implications for object recognition (2016)
Journal Article
Bonardi, C., Pardon, M., & Armstrong, P. (2016). Deficits in object-in-place but not relative recency performance in the APPswe/PS1dE9 mouse model of Alzheimer's disease: implications for object recognition. Behavioural Brain Research, 313, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2016.07.008

Performance was examined on three variants of the spontaneous object recognition (SOR) task, in 5-month old APPswe/PS1dE9 mice and wild-type littermate controls. A deficit was observed in an object-in-place (OIP) task, in which mice are preexposed to...

Introduction: Loss of muscle is common in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and contributes to the high morbidity and mortality of this group. The exact mechanisms behind the loss of muscle are unclear. Patients and methods... Read More about Consequences of late-stage non-small cell lung cancer cachexia on muscle metabolic processes.

Uncoupling the Structure–Activity Relationships of β2 Adrenergic Receptor Ligands from Membrane Binding (2016)
Journal Article
Dickson, C. J., Hornak, V., Velez-Vega, C., McKay, D. J., Reilly, J., Sandham, D. A., …Duca, J. S. (2016). Uncoupling the Structure–Activity Relationships of β2 Adrenergic Receptor Ligands from Membrane Binding. Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 59(12), 5780-5789. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jmedchem.6b00358

Ligand binding to membrane proteins may be significantly influenced by the interaction of ligands with the membrane. In particular, the microscopic ligand concentration within the membrane surface solvation layer may exceed that in bulk solvent, resu...

Administration of caffeine with 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) alters the pharmacological properties of MDMA in rats. The current study examined whether caffeine alters the behavioural and neurochemical effects of mephedrone, which has simi...

On the pivotal role of PPARa in adaptation of the heart to hypoxia and why fat in the diet increases hypoxic injury (2016)
Journal Article

The role of peroxisome proliferator activated alpha (PPAR?) -mediated metabolic remodeling in cardiac adaptation to hypoxia has yet to be defined. Here, mice were housed in hypoxia for 3 weeks before in vivo contractile function was measured using c...

Bone regeneration is a complex biological process where major cellular changes take place to support the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal bone progenitors. To characterise these biological changes and better understand the pathways regulatin...

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 458(3), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbrc.2015.01.158

We had previously shown that alcohol consumption can induce cellular isoaspartate protein damage via an impairment of the activity of protein isoaspartyl methyltransferase (PIMT), an enzyme that triggers repair of isoaspartate protein damage. To furt... Read More about Isoaspartate, Carbamoyl phosphate synthase-1, and carbonic anhydrase-III as biomarkers of liver injury.
