About Stroke Medicine, PhD - at University of Nottingham

The main interests of the Division are in the treatment of acute stroke, enhancing recovery and stroke prevention. Acute interventions are tested in the Stroke Trials Unit including investigation of blood-pressure control (MRC ENOS trial of glyceryl trinitrate, BHF telmisartan trial), and mobilisation of endogenous stem cells (MRC STEMS II tri al of granulocyte colony stimulating factor. Other studies focus on the effect of PC-based visual field training in stroke rehabilitation. The NIH ARUBA study is assessing stroke prevention in patients with unruptured brain arteriovenous malformations. The Division of Stroke Medicine hosts the mid Trent part of the UK Stroke Research Network.

The translational research in the Division focuses on the relative contributions of protein kinase C b, vascular growth factors e.g. VEGF, small GTP-binding proteins such as Rho and Rac as well as oxidative stress associated with excessive generation and/or reduced metabolism of reactive oxygen species to ischaemic stroke-related blood-brain barrier leakage and diabetic cerebrovascular damage.
