Cell Biology Of Gastric Acid Secretion

Abstract

This research will result in a better understanding of the membrane structures in cells. In turn, this information could be exploited to manipulate ion transport, uptake, secretion of biological molecules, signal transduction events and the delivery and uptake of drugs in a number of disease situations thus leading to more effective therapies. Furthermore, this work will utilise and develop state-of-the-art technologies, contributing to national competitiveness in this area. A number of students and postdoctoral fellows will be trained as a consequence of working on this project
