4-Phenylpyridin-2-one Derivatives: A Novel Class of Positive Allosteric Modulator of the M1 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor (2015)
Journal Article

Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M1 mAChR) are a promising strategy for the treatment of the cognitive deficits associated with diseases including Alzheimer’s and schizophrenia. Herein, we report the... Read More about 4-Phenylpyridin-2-one Derivatives: A Novel Class of Positive Allosteric Modulator of the M1 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor.

Au(I) N-heterocyclic carbenes from bisimidazolium amphiphiles: synthesis, cytotoxicity and incorporation onto gold nanoparticles (2015)
Journal Article

A gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbene 4 from a bis-imidazolium-amphiphile was synthesized and characterized. The cytotoxicity against HT-29 colon carcinoma and MDA-MB-231 breast adenocarcinoma cells was assessed for the NHC complex 4, the imidazolium salt...

Economic Evaluation of a General Hospital Unit for Older People with Delirium and Dementia (TEAM Randomised Controlled Trial) (2015)
Journal Article

Background One in three hospital acute medical admissions is of an older person with cognitive impairment. Their outcomes are poor and the quality of their care in hospital has been criticised. A specialist unit to care for older people with delir...

Thermoresponsive magnetic colloidal gels via surface-initiated polymerisation from functional microparticles (2015)
Journal Article

Novel magnetothermally responsive core-shell microparticles have been synthesized. The aqueous suspensions of these particles exhibit fast thermoreversible fluid-to-gel transitions and retain good magnetic properties. Rheological measurements demonst...

Supporting adherence for people starting a new medication for a long-term condition through community pharmacies: a pragmatic randomised controlled trial of the New Medicine Service (2015)
Journal Article

Objective: To examine the effectiveness of the New Medicine Service (NMS), a national community pharmacy service to support medicines-taking in people starting a new medicine for a long-term condition, compared with normal practice. Methods: Pragm...

Receptor crosslinking: a general method to trigger internalization and lysosomal targeting of therapeutic receptor: ligand complexes (2015)
Journal Article

A major unmet clinical need is a universal method for subcellular targeting of bioactive molecules to lysosomes. Delivery to this organelle enables either degradation of oncogenic receptors that are overexpressed in cancers, or release of prodrugs fr...

Multivariate analysis of 3D ToF-SIMS images: method validation and application to cultured neuronal networks (2015)
Journal Article

Advanced data analysis tools are crucial for the application of ToF-SIMS analysis to biological samples. Here, we demonstrate that by using a training set approach principal components analysis (PCA) can be performed on large 3D ToF-SIMS images of ne...

Fast, ultrasensitive detection of reactive oxygen species using a carbon nanotube based-electrocatalytic intracellular sensor (2015)
Journal Article

Herein, we report a highly sensitive electrocatalytic sensor-cell construct that can electrochemically communicate with the internal environment of immune cells (e.g., macrophages) via the selective monitoring of a particular reactive oxygen species...
