Overview
Our research uses mass spectrometry to discover and characterise new lipids (fats) made by circulating vascular cells that regulate immune defence and blood clotting.
Recently we showed that human blood platelets generate a large number of oxidized phospholipids several of which help clotting factors in plasma work more effectively. We also uncovered a new role for phospholipases in providing energy to the cell and how lipids in different people respond individually to aspirin (http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/news/view/264589-understanding-the-bodys-response-to-aspirin)
In 2016, the Wellcome Trust funded a £1.3M 5 yr initiative led by our group jointly with Babraham Institute, Cambridge, and University of California San Diego to fund continuation and further development of LIPID MAPS, the global online database and resource for lipid research (http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/news/view/380752-new-funding-boosts-lipidomics-research).
Our current research is focused on understanding the role of new lipids in vascular inflammation including cardiovascular disease, dementia and wound healing. Some lipids we discovered are being developed as the basis of new treatments for bleeding excess.
Research in our group is funded by grants from the European Research Council, Wellcome Trust, British Heart Foundation and Medical Research Council.
