Stroke impacts approximately 15 million people globally and is the leading cause of death in upper income countries as well as the third leading cause of death and leading cause of morbidity worldwide. Treatment for stroke, once it has occurred, has been limited with only one therapeutic agent available clinically that can treat 1-3% of stroke victims. Sulforaphane (SFN), is a naturally available isothiocyanate found in many cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage and appears to have potential anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and pro-resolving properties. This project will therefore investigate the potential neuroprotective efficacy and downstream cellular and molecular pathways of SFN in a human cell-culture model of stroke known as Oxygen-Glucose Deprivation.
These PhD opportunities will include comprehensive personal and professional development training and a mentoring programme from the University of Westminster Graduate School. The researchers will join a School firmly committed to decolonising and diversifying policies, practices, and cultures within, and beyond, Higher Education.
