Aperçu du projet

Regular cannabis use is indisputably linked to schizophrenia. However, the causal nature and direction of this link is contentious and the biological mechanisms underpinning their relationship are poorly understood. Regular cannabis use is on the rise in Canada, so elucidating this relationship is timely and important. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs),…

Aperçu du projet

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the first inherited cause of intellectual disability and one of the most prevalent causes of autism spectrum disorders. Individuals with FXS do not produce a protein named FMRP. The absence of FMRP results in abnormal brain development and impaired synaptic transmission, which is the mechanism…

Aperçu du projet

Thanks to advances in cancer treatments, more than 80% of children treated for brain tumors now survive at least five years after their diagnosis. However, these treatments can often harm the brain, affecting both its structure and function. The brain's structure, particularly the white matter pathways that connect different regions,…

Aperçu du projet

By profiling the protein expression signatures of multiple patient-derived glioblastoma cell lines, we recently identified a major signalling pathway involved in glioblastoma cell migration. Excitingly, we showed that chemical inhibition of a key protein involved in regulating this pathway significantly reduced the infiltration of three glioblastoma cell lines. While inhibiting…
