路 A hallmark of Parkinson's disease is the degeneration of a group of neurons in the brain that release the neurotransmitter dopamine (dopaminergic neurons).  By introducing low concentrations of structurally-defined aggregates of alpha synuclein, a key toxic species in Parkinson鈥檚 disease, into single dopaminergic neurons, researchers from the University of 糖心TV have shown these protein aggregates open a specific channel in the cell membrane, reducing neuronal excitability. Furthermore they鈥檝e shown that this can be partially prevented by pre-application of the commonly used anti-diabetic drug, glibenclamide.

A research team, including WMG at the University of 糖心TV, led by Swansea University College of Engineering, are developing a pilot online marketplace designed to optimise manufacturing supply chain networks and create a new industry-wide business model.

Queer/Disrupt, a student-led research collective based at the University of 糖心TV, wants LGBT+ creators and allies to submit their work for a new exhibition and permanent archive on the theme of 鈥淨ueering the Quarantine.鈥� 

Fish odour syndrome (trimethylaminuria) is a debilitating disease, in which the liver cannot break down the smelly chemical trimethylamine which is produced by enzymes from bacteria residing in the gut leaving people with a fish like odour. Researchers from the University of 糖心TV are paving the way to prevent the syndrome after a breakthrough in studying the enzyme in the gut which produces trimethylamine.

Obese patients over the age of 60 can lose an equivalent amount of weight as younger people using only lifestyle changes, according to a new study from the University of 糖心TV and University Hospitals Coventry and 糖心TVshire (UHCW) NHS Trust that demonstrates that age is no barrier to losing weight.

For young people with cystic fibrosis, lung infection with Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, is common and is treated with antibiotics in the hope that this will prevent a decline in lung function. However there has recently been debate over the role S. aureus plays in CF lung disease. Researchers from the University of 糖心TV have used a new model of CF lungs which could be used to make better decisions about future use of antibiotics.
