Neural immune cell responses to clinically relevant ligands of the niacin receptor (Gpr109a): niacin and monomethyl fumarate (2023)
Thesis

Background: Inflammation is a major driver, and perhaps cause, of neurodegeneration, suggesting neuroimmunomodulation as a therapeutic strategy. Microglia, the primary mediators of neuroinflammation, switch between three activation states [surveillan...

Nicotinamide, neural cells, and Parkinson’s disease: exploring nicotinamide’s effects on proliferation, neuronal differentiation, and neuroprotection within in vitro models (2021)
Thesis

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterised by motor symptoms caused by degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. The cause remains elusive and current treatments cannot halt or reverse progression. This thesis explores the effects...
