Unravelling Molecular Mechanisms of ALS: Characterizing the in vitro and in vivo effects of biometals on the ALS-linked proteins TDP-43, SOD1, PGRN, and MFSD8
Aperçu du projet
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons, typically resulting from gene mutations that facilitate abnormal protein aggregation. Studies suggest that mutations in several proteins including TDP-43, SOD1, PGRN, and MFSD8, are linked to familial and sporadic cases of ALS (fALS/sALS). In…

Aperçu du projet
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders in the world. PD can manifest and develop in a variety of ways for different patients, and it is currently not possible to reliably determine, for a given patient, which subtype of PD they have and what course their…

Voir le projet et les chercheursThe effects of different types of exercise on sleep quality and architecture in people with Parkinson’s disease
Aperçu du projet
Most people with Parkinson's Disease (PD) suffer from sleep problems and show marked alterations in sleep architecture (i.e., the basic structural organization of normal sleep). These alterations are clinically relevant because they increase the risk of developing age-related cognitive problems and dementia and can accelerate the motor deterioration of the…

Aperçu du projet
Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive brain tumour in adults. Current treatment includes surgical resection, chemotherapy, and radiation. However, since GBM is fastgrowing and highly invasive, existing therapies often result in tumour recurrence and poor survival outcomes, emphasizing the importance of the development of novel therapeutic targets.…

Aperçu du projet
Melanoma brain metastases (MBMs) are a serious issue affecting up to half of all patients with stage IV melanoma, typically leading to a poor outlook. While immune therapy using anti-PD-1 can help, it only works for about 20% of MBM patients, which is much lower than the response seen in…
