Inflamed phenotype of the mesenteric microcirculation of melanocortin type 3 receptor-null mice after ischemia-reperfusion

The author made a substantial contribution to carrying out the study (including acquisition of study data); to analysis and interpretation of study data. The author helped critique the output for important intellectual content. The paper was based on a multi-centre research project arising from a BHF PhD studentship award. The project required expertise in in vivo and in vitro techniques resulting in identification of a tonic inhibitory signal provided by the MC3 receptor in the mesenteric microcirculation of the mouse. Dr Murray was responsible for the immunohistochemical results presented in the paper: from the preparation of the tissue, the immunostaining, image capturing, figure preparation and interpreting the images. Dr Murray also participated in the writing of the relevant methods and results sections, and contributed to the overall discussion in the paper.
