PBS Program Name:
ARC 18/19 Discovery
Grant Program:
Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Mechanisms of itch - from endosomal signalling to neural circuits
Purpose:
This project aims to investigate the cellular and circuit mechanisms of itch transmission in the spinal cord by defining the activation and propagation of itch-specific signals. This project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of neuronal signalling and circuitry using novel electrophysiological approaches that target and manipulate specific nerves and cellular components. The project will characterise signalling within specific spinal subcircuits in order to understand the mechanisms of receptor activation and signalling, and investigate how circuit activity is regulated. This project expects to advance fundamental understanding of itch signalling in the nervous system and provide avenues for future therapeutics.
