Astrocyte Activation in Neurovascular Damage and Repair Following Ischaemic Stroke (2021)
Journal Article
Patabendige, A., Singh, A., Jenkins, S., Sen, J., & Chen, R. (2021). Astrocyte Activation in Neurovascular Damage and Repair Following Ischaemic Stroke. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 22(8), https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms22084280

Transient or permanent loss of tissue perfusion due to ischaemic stroke can lead to damage to the neurovasculature, and disrupt brain homeostasis, causing long-term motor and cognitive deficits. Despite promising pre-clinical studies, clinically appr... Read More about Astrocyte Activation in Neurovascular Damage and Repair Following Ischaemic Stroke.

Post-Ischaemic Immunological Response in the Brain: Targeting Microglia in Ischaemic Stroke Therapy. (2020)
Journal Article
Rawlinson, C., Jenkins, S., Thei, L., Dallas, M., & Chen, R. (2020). Post-Ischaemic Immunological Response in the Brain: Targeting Microglia in Ischaemic Stroke Therapy. Brain Sciences, 10(3), https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci10030159

Microglia, the major endogenous immune cells of the central nervous system, mediate critical degenerative and regenerative responses in ischaemic stroke. Microglia become "activated", proliferating, and undergoing changes in morphology, gene and prot...

The Influence of Nicotinamide on Health and Disease in the Central Nervous System (2018)
Journal Article
Fricker, R., Green, E., Jenkins, S., & Griffin, S. (2018). The Influence of Nicotinamide on Health and Disease in the Central Nervous System. International Journal of Tryptophan Research, https://doi.org/10.1177/1178646918776658

Nicotinamide, the amide form of vitamin B3 (niacin), has long been associated with neuronal development, survival, and function in the central nervous system (CNS), being implicated in both neuronal death and neuroprotection. Here, we summarise a bod... Read More about The Influence of Nicotinamide on Health and Disease in the Central Nervous System.
