Projects

1. INVESTIGATING THE EFFECT OF IL-21R DEFICIENCY ON ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE FORMATION AND STABILITY

University of Glasgow (Mar 2024 to Aug 2024) 

This project aims to investigate the effect of IL-21R deficiency on plaque formation and stability. It was hypothesized that the IL-21/IL-21R axis plays a pivotal role in atherosclerosis. In summary, atherosclerosis has been induced in both wild-type and IL-21R KO mice by gene transfer of PCSK9 through injection into the tail. These mice were subjected to 14 weeks of high-fat diet and the samples were collected and aortic root was incised for assessing plaque composition using oil red O staining for the lipids and picrosirus red staining for collagen. The quantification involves plaque area, necrotic core area, and collagen deposition. 

2. AGEING CHANGES IN IMMUNITY FOR OVER 65 YEARS UK POPULATION

University of Glasgow (Sep 2022 to June 2023) 

The main purpose of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of COVID-19 on the 65 years and older population and their immunity, along with strategies to improve their immunity. The studies found that there is a waning of immunity after a few months of interval post-vaccination due to the effect of ageing. The effect of ageing on the elderly's immunity should be investigated to develop possible vaccines and drugs for the elderly to boost their immunity in future research.
