A nice followup to our paper on sex differences in #Alzheimers. @K_S_Abdelrahman & @TheDrShaar show there is a drug which can slow the disease's progression in female mice. @BrJPharmacol @uOttawaMed @uOttawaBMRI @OttawaCmm @uOttawa @uOttawaResearch https://t.co/02GTok0yt4

@Krm_Ib latest paper from his PhD! We are so proud of how far you came and all the hard work you put into this research!

#HuntingtonsDisease is a devastating, inherited #Brain disorder. There are no drugs to slow the progression of this #RareDisease.

New #Research led by Dr. Stephen Ferguson's lab @uOttawaMed could help pave the way for #DrugTargets & treatment approaches👉 https://t.co/6R3OpN9E7I

#JNeurosci: @Krm_Ib @elmestikawy @K_S_Abdelrahman & @FergusonottawaS @LabFerguson @uOttawaBMRI @OttawaCmm showed that a subtype of glutamate transporters, VGLUT3, plays an important role in modulating the development of #HuntingtonsDisease in a mouse model
