Effects of the cannabinoid CB1 agonist ACEA on salicylate ototoxicity, hyperacusis and tinnitus in guinea pigs (2017)
Journal Article
Berger, J. I., Coomber, B., Hill, S., Alexander, S., Owen, W., Palmer, A. R., & Wallace, M. N. (in press). Effects of the cannabinoid CB1 agonist ACEA on salicylate ototoxicity, hyperacusis and tinnitus in guinea pigs. Hearing Research, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.heares.2017.10.012

Cannabinoids have been suggested as a therapeutic target for a variety of brain disorders. Despite the presence of their receptors throughout the auditory system, little is known about how cannabinoids affect auditory function. We sought to determine...

A critical role for cystathionine-?-synthase in hydrogen sulfide-mediated hypoxic relaxation of the coronary artery (2017)
Journal Article
Donovan, J., Wong, P., Roberts, R. E., Garle, M., Alexander, S. P., Dunn, W. R., & Ralevic, V. (2017). A critical role for cystathionine-?-synthase in hydrogen sulfide-mediated hypoxic relaxation of the coronary artery. Vascular Pharmacology, 93-95, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vph.2017.05.004

Hypoxia-induced coronary artery vasodilatation protects the heart by increasing blood flow under ischemic conditions, however its mechanism is not fully elucidated. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is reported to be an oxygen sensor/transducer in the vasculatu...
