CX3C chemokine signalling in the olfactory epithelium and its role in the self regeneration of the olfactory system

目前的提案将探索成人神经干细胞研究的新领域，并为西澳大利亚和澳大利亚分子生物学和神经科学研究的进一步发展做出贡献。神经干细胞的使用为治疗包括神经创伤和中风在内的各种神经系统疾病提供了治疗前景。拟议的研究将提供关于触发成人神经系统中新神经元的诞生、分化和生长条件所需的基本细胞和分子事件的新数据。这种见解的产生对于任何转化研究都是至关重要的。

The current proposal will explore new venues in adult neural stem cell research and contribute to the further development of molecular biology and neuroscience research in Western Australia and Australia. The use of neural stem cells holds therapeutic promise for the treatment of a wide variety of neurological conditions, including neurotrauma and stroke. The proposed research will provide new data on the fundamental cellular and molecular events that are required to trigger the birth, differentiation and conditions for growth of new neurons in the adult nervous system. The generation of such insights will be critical for any translational research.
