Studies on the role of the endocannabinoid anandamide, as a possible modulator of events during neointimal formation. (2010)
Thesis
SKENE, K.E. 2010. Studies on the role of the endocannabinoid anandamide, as a possible modulator of events during neointimal formation. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

Neointimal formation is a complex process that occurs due to the over compensatory healing response produced by the vessel following injury. Three key events, SMC proliferation, SMC migration and the inflammatory response, occur in unison to drive th...

Investigation of hypoxia and hyperglycaemia mediated DNA damage in human endothelial cells. (2008)
Thesis
WEIDMANN, A.E. 2008. Investigation of hypoxia and hyperglycaemia mediated DNA damage in human endothelial cells. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

Chronic complications of diabetes mellitus are a pathological consequence of unregulated levels of blood glucose leading to disorders of the vascular system. When investigating the vascular complications the changes in the endothelium are of particul...
