SGIP1 binding to the α-helical H9 domain of cannabinoid receptor 1 promotes axonal surface expression (2024)
Journal Article

Endocannabinoid signalling mediated by cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R, also known as CNR1) is critical for homeostatic neuromodulation of both excitatory and inhibitory synapses. This requires highly polarised axonal surface expression of CB1R, but how... Read More about SGIP1 binding to the α-helical H9 domain of cannabinoid receptor 1 promotes axonal surface expression.

IL-6 knockdown in a model of the human bone marrow, abrogates DNA damage induction in bystander cells post-chemotherapy induced cytokine release syndrome (2024)
Journal Article

Following infection or exposure to therapeutic agents, an aggressive immune response may result, termed cytokine storm (CS) or cytokine release syndrome. Here the innate immune system becomes uncontrolled, leading to serious consequences including po...
