• The effect of fingolimod on regulatory T cells in a mouse model of brain ischaemia 

  Malone, Kyle; Diaz Diaz, Andrea C.; Shearer, Jennifer A.; Moore, Anne C.; Waeber, Christian (BioMed Central Ltd, 2021)

  Background: The role of the immune system in stroke is well-recognised. Fingolimod, an immunomodulatory agent licensed for the management of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, has been shown to provide benefit in ...
• Ethanolamine: A potential promoiety with additional effects in the brain [Mini review] 

  Gwanyanya, Asfree; Godsmark, Christie Nicole; Kelly-Laubscher, Roisin (Bentham Science, 2020-12-11)

  Ethanolamine is a bioactive molecule found in several cells, including those in the central nervous system (CNS). In the brain, ethanolamine and ethanolamine-related molecules have emerged as prodrug moieties that can ...

  Hamshire, Claire; Forsyth, Rachel; Bell, Amani; Benton, Matthew; Kelly-Laubscher, Roisin; Paxton, Moragh; Wolfgramm-Foliaki, `Ema (Taylor & Francis, 2017-04-10)

  University policies are increasingly developed with reference to students’ learning experiences, with a focus on the concept of the ‘student voice’. Yet the ‘student voice’ is difficult to define and emphasis is often ...
• Cardioprotective effect of fingolimod against calcium paradox-induced myocardial injury in the isolated rat heart 

  Alatrag, Fatma; Amoni, Matthew; Kelly-Laubscher, Roisin; Gwanyanya, Asfree (Canadian Science Publishing, 2021-09-24)

  Fingolimod (FTY720) inhibits Ca2+-permeable, Mg2+-sensitive channels called transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7), but its effects on Ca2+ paradox (CP)-induced myocardial damage have not been evaluated. We ...
• Cardioprotective and anti-arrhythmic effects of magnesium pretreatment against ischaemia/reperfusion injury in isoprenaline-induced hypertrophic rat heart 

  Amoni, Matthew; Kelly-Laubscher, Roisin; Petersen, Morea; Gwanyanya, Asfree (Springer, 2015-12-22)

  The effects of magnesium (Mg2+) on ischaemic complications of pathological cardiac hypertrophy are unclear. In this study, we investigated effects of Mg2+ pretreatment on ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in isoprenaline ...
