Bn2DT3A, a Chelator for 68Ga Positron Emission Tomography: Hydroxide Coordination Increases Biological Stability of [68Ga][Ga(Bn2DT3A)(OH)]− (2022)
Journal Article
Price, T. W., Renard, I., Prior, T. J., Kubíček, V., Benoit, D. M., Archibald, S. J., …Stasiuk, G. J. (2022). Bn2DT3A, a Chelator for 68Ga Positron Emission Tomography: Hydroxide Coordination Increases Biological Stability of [68Ga][Ga(Bn2DT3A)(OH)]−. Inorganic chemistry, 61(43), 17059–17067. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.inorgchem.2c01992

The chelator Bn2DT3A was used to produce a novel 68Ga complex for positron emission tomography (PET). Unusually, this system is stabilized by a coordinated hydroxide in aqueous solutions above pH 5, which confers sufficient stability for it to be use...

Measurement of Glutathione as a Tool for Oxidative Stress Studies by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (2020)
Journal Article
Nuhu, F., Gordon, A., Sturmey, R., Seymour, A. M., & Bhandari, S. (2020). Measurement of Glutathione as a Tool for Oxidative Stress Studies by High Performance Liquid Chromatography. Molecules, 25(18), Article 4196. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules25184196

Background: Maintenance of the ratio of glutathione in the reduced (GSH) and oxidised (GSSG) state in cells is important in redox control, signal transduction and gene regulation, factors that are altered in many diseases. The accurate and reliable d... Read More about Measurement of Glutathione as a Tool for Oxidative Stress Studies by High Performance Liquid Chromatography.

Differential induction of cellular proliferation, hypertrophy and apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes by exogenous tissue factor (2010)
Journal Article
Alkistis Frentzou, G., Collier, M. E. W., Ettelaie, C., & Seymour, A.-M. L. (2010). Differential induction of cellular proliferation, hypertrophy and apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes by exogenous tissue factor. Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 345(1-2), 119-130. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11010-010-0565-8

Recent evidence has shown that prolonged exposure to exogenous tissue factor (TF) can alter the cellular functions of cardiomyocytes resulting in cardiac dysfunction. The effect of TF may arise from local inflammation within or in the vicinity of the...
