Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 11, https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2024.1454342

Introduction Quinidine (QND) sulfate is an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) in horses, and several dosage regimens have been proposed to address its wide variability in response and potential adverse effects. The purpose of this study... Read More about Rational quinidine dosage regimen for atrial fibrillation in Thoroughbred racehorses based on population pharmacokinetics.

Immunohistochemical expression of CYP11A1, CYP11B, CYP17, and HSD3B2 in functional and nonfunctional canine adrenocortical tumors (2024)
Journal Article
Allan, F., Watson, A., & Syme, H. (2024). Immunohistochemical expression of CYP11A1, CYP11B, CYP17, and HSD3B2 in functional and nonfunctional canine adrenocortical tumors. Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, https://doi.org/10.1111/jvim.17212

Background: Functionality of human adrenal tumors is inferred by CYP11B1 (cortisol synthase) expression, CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase) expression, or both. Hypothesis/Objectives: Nonfunctional canine adrenal tumors have low expression of steroidogen...
