研究领域
Dr Lisa Lione is an in vivo behavioural neuropharmacologist with 10 years drug discovery expertise in biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, including co-founding a private held biotechnological company (Cambridge Biotechnology Ltd, CBT). In industry, Lisa directed in vivo research in pain, obesity and cognition providing decision making data to deliver novel patented candidate drugs into clinical development, including the gold standard treatment Pregbalin (Lyrica®) for diabetic neuropathic pain.
Lisa joined UH in 2008 managing the in vivo diabetes research projects as the Home Office project licence holder (PPL70/7732, Diabetes mechanisms and treatment, 2013-2018). At UH Lisa currently supervises 6 PhD students, 4 of whom are working under her licence.
Lisa's research aims include:
1. Investigating the involvement of TRPV ion channels, PPARβδ, glucose metabolites and natural plant products in glucose sensing, vascular dysfunction and neuropathic pain (in collaboration with the IPHAMETRA Institute, Gabon, Africa, Prof Alain DeSouza, 2014-2017, £48,450 funded PhD studentship)
2. Providing consultation studies for the discovery and development of novel analgesics for diabetic neuropathic pain in collaboration with the CRO, Transpharmation Ltd (Dr Neil Upton).
3. Improving the predictive validity and animal welfare of models of diabetes by investigating novel 'non-evoked' naturalistic behaviours (cognitive, burrowing).
4. Identifying biomarkers of neuropathic pain and improve responder rates to analgesia in diabetes using behaviour and transcriptomics (with Transpharmation Ltd, requires funding)
5. Understanding the pharmacological mechanisms underlying ketamine and novel psychoactive substances induced bladder hypersensitivity (in collaboration with Dr Stair, Dr Fergus at UH)
