β-catenin negatively regulates expression of the prostaglandin transporter PGT in the normal intestinal epithelium and colorectal tumour cells: A role in the chemopreventive efficacy of aspirin (2012)
Journal Article

Background: Levels of the pro-tumorigenic prostaglandin PGE 2 are increased in colorectal cancer, previously attributed to increased synthesis through COX-2 upregulation and, more recently, to decreased catabolism. The functionally linked genes 15-pr...

The effect of a clinically effective and non-effective dose of lorazepam on 7.5% CO2-induced anxiety (2012)
Journal Article

Symptoms of anxiety induced by 7.5% CO2 inhalation can be attenuated by acute administration of GABAA receptor anxiolytics such as lorazepam and alprazolam. This study investigated if these effects are dose-related, by comparing a 0.5 mg dose (consid...

Revealing and quantifying the impaired phonological analysis underpinning impaired comprehension in Wernicke's aphasia (2012)
Journal Article

Wernicke's aphasia is a condition which results in severely disrupted language comprehension following a lesion to the left temporo-parietal region. A phonological analysis deficit has traditionally been held to be at the root of the comprehension im...
