Exploring the use of Arginine Methylation Inhibitors Against Brain Tumours in an ex vivo Perfusion System (2025)
Thesis
Barry, A. (2025). Exploring the use of Arginine Methylation Inhibitors Against Brain Tumours in an ex vivo Perfusion System. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/5133792

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary malignancy in the central nervous system and the most devastating, with a median survival of 18 months from diagnosis. The development of models to research and understand GBM tumourigenesis and progressi...

The Role of Environmentally Relevant Concentrations of SSRIs in Human Wound Healing (2025)
Thesis
Rodriguez-Barucg, Q. (2025). The Role of Environmentally Relevant Concentrations of SSRIs in Human Wound Healing. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/5126336

This thesis investigates the role of environmentally relevant concentrations of fluoxetine, a commonly prescribed selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), in wound healing. While SSRIs are effective in treating psychiatric conditions, their inc... Read More about The Role of Environmentally Relevant Concentrations of SSRIs in Human Wound Healing.

Investigating protein arginine methylation in platelets and hair (2023)
Thesis
Marsden, A. J. Investigating protein arginine methylation in platelets and hair. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4386508

Post-translational modification (PTM) of platelet proteins has long been known to have an effect on their ability to aggregate and form a thrombus. Arginine methylation (ArgMe) is catalysed by protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) which... Read More about Investigating protein arginine methylation in platelets and hair.

The language of abiotic stress in aquatic animals : molecular characterisation of stress metabolite-mediated stress communication (2022)
Thesis
Feugère, L. The language of abiotic stress in aquatic animals : molecular characterisation of stress metabolite-mediated stress communication. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4311814

It is well established that aquatic animals inform their neighbours of predation risk through chemical cues. In this thesis, I tested the hypothesis that stress propagation is a widespread mechanism also activated by abiotic stressors – such as those...

Investigating the role of arginine methylation in glioblastoma using biomicrofluidics (2021)
Thesis
Samuel, S. F. Investigating the role of arginine methylation in glioblastoma using biomicrofluidics. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223865

Despite intense research, the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma (GBM) remains extremely poor, with a median survival of 1.5 years after diagnosis. The need for new therapeutic options is therefore a vital step towards securing a better outlook...
