Cellular regulation of receptor signalling and cytokine responses [ 2016 - 2019 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Jennifer Stow (Principal investigator) ,  A/Pr Antje Blumenthal

Brief description Cell surface receptors and signalling pathways elicit the release of cytokines, or chemical messengers, to control inflammation, which is the body’s response to infection or danger. We have discovered a new signalling pathway that can turn off inflammation and help prevent inflammatory disease. Our studies will now define the molecular details of this pathway and show how new and existing drugs targeting this pathway can be optimally used to treat inflammation and cancer.
