Journal Article
Qvortrup, K., ARKILL, K., Starborg, T., Mantell, J., Knupp, C., Michel, C., …Neal, C. (2014). Resolution of the three dimensional structure of components of the glomerular filtration barrier. BMC Nephrology, 15(1), Article 24. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2369-15-24

Background: The human glomerulus is the primary filtration unit of the kidney, and contains the Glomerular Filtration Barrier (GFB). The GFB had been thought to comprise 3 layers - the endothelium, the basement membrane and the podocyte foot processe...

VEGF-A165b Is an Endogenous Neuroprotective Splice Isoform of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A inVivo and inVitro (2013)
Journal Article

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) A is generated as two isoform families by alternative RNA splicing, represented by VEGF-A165a and VEGF-A165b. These isoforms have opposing actions on vascular permeability, angiogenesis, and vasodilatation. T...
