Optogenetic Inhibition of Striatal GABAergic Neuronal Activity Improves Outcomes After Ischemic Brain Injury
Published in Stroke, 2017
After ischemic stroke, optogenetic inhibition of GABAergic neurons upregulated bFGF expression by endothelial cells and promoted neurobehavioral recovery, possibly orchestrated by astrocytes. Optogenetically inhibiting neuronal activity provides a novel approach to promote neurological recovery.

Stalled Blood Flow in Brain Capillaries Is Responsible for Reduced Cortical Perfusion and Impacts Cognitive Function in Mouse Models of Alzheimer’s Disease
Published in Alzheimer’s and Dementia, 2018
In this study we uncovered leukocyte adhesion in brain capillaries as a mechanism contributing to reduced CBF in AD mouse models and showed that blocking this adhesion leads to immediate cognitive benefits even in advanced stages of disease development.
