Funded Activity Summary

The mode of action of the haem protein neuroglobin in protecting nerve cells. Outcomes from this project will assist in developing new treatments for stroke and chronic degenerative brain disorders by characterising how the haem protein neuroglobin protects neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system from oxidative damage. This project will also develop pharmacological strategies to boost the concentration of neuroglobin in neurons.
