Researched adenosine A1 receptor and KATP-channel pharmacology in cardioprotection from ischaemia-reperfusion injury and myocardial energy substrate metabolism.
研究领域
My research interests are spread across three main areas with common threads running through each area. Historically my background has been in cardiovascular pharmacology and more specifically in myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury. I have studied the how the rennin-angiotensin system affects short- and long-term recovery from myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury. More recently, I am engaged in investigating cardiovascular responses to endocannabinoids and trace amines. I am also involved in pulmonary research where we are studying the effects of modifying components of the inflammatory response (including the use of endocannabinoids) to reduce inflammation and allergen-induced bronchoconstriction. Study of the endocannainoid system also forms the basis of a new collaboration with Norgine to study inflammatory bowel disease.
