Lower Resting and Exercise-Induced Circulating Angiogenic Progenitors and Angiogenic T-Cells in Older Men (2017)
Journal Article
Ross, M. D., Malone, E. M., Simpson, R., Cranston, I., Ingram, L., Wright, G. P., …Florida-James, G. D. (2018). Lower Resting and Exercise-Induced Circulating Angiogenic Progenitors and Angiogenic T-Cells in Older Men. American journal of physiology. He

Ageing is associated with a dysfunctional endothelial phenotype, as well as reduced angiogenic capabilities. Exercise exerts beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system, possibly by increasing/maintaining the number and/or function of circulating...

Engineering Specificity and Function of Therapeutic Regulatory T Cells (2017)
Journal Article
McGovern, J. L., Wright, G. P., & Stauss, H. J. (2017). Engineering Specificity and Function of Therapeutic Regulatory T Cells. Frontiers in Immunology, 8, Article 1517. https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2017.01517

Adoptive therapy with polyclonal regulatory T cells (Tregs) has shown efficacy in suppressing detrimental immune responses in experimental models of autoimmunity and transplantation. The lack of specificity is a potential limitation of Treg therapy,... Read More about Engineering Specificity and Function of Therapeutic Regulatory T Cells.

Remote ischaemic preconditioning in orthotopic liver transplantation (RIPCOLT trial): a pilot randomized controlled feasibility study (2017)
Journal Article
Robertson, F. P., Goswami, R., Wright, G. P., Imber, C., Sharma, D., Malago, M., …Davidson, B. R. (2017). Remote ischaemic preconditioning in orthotopic liver transplantation (RIPCOLT trial): a pilot randomized controlled feasibility study. HPB, 19(9), 757-767. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.hpb.2017.05.005

Background Ischaemia Reperfusion (IR) injury is a major cause of morbidity, mortality and graft loss following Orthotopic Liver Transplantation (OLT). Utilising marginal grafts, which are more susceptible to IR injury, makes this a key research goal...

Recruitment of inflammatory monocytes after liver transplantation and correlation with clinical outcome (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Robertson, F., Male, V., Wright, G., Fuller, B., & Davidson, B. (2017, February). Recruitment of inflammatory monocytes after liver transplantation and correlation with clinical outcome

Background Ischaemia reperfusion injury is a key cause of mortality and graft loss after liver transplantation. After tissue injury, monocytes are rapidly mobilised and recruited to injured tissue by monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1). Eleva...
