X Chromosome Evolution in Cetartiodactyla (2017)
Journal Article
Proskuryakova, A. A., Kulemzina, A. I., Perelman, P. L., Makunin, I. A., Larkin, D. M., Farré, M., …Graphodatsky, S. A. (2017). X Chromosome Evolution in Cetartiodactyla. Genes, 8(9), 216. https://doi.org/10.3390/genes8090216

The phenomenon of a remarkable conservation of the X chromosome in eutherian mammals has been first described by Susumu Ohno in 1964. A notable exception is the cetartiodactyl X chromosome, which varies widely in morphology and G-banding pattern betw... Read More about X Chromosome Evolution in Cetartiodactyla.

Elastin is Localised to the Interfascicular Matrix of Energy Storing Tendons and Becomes Increasingly Disorganised With Ageing (2017)
Journal Article
Godinho, M. S., Thorpe, C. T., Greenwald, S. E., & Screen, H. R. (2017). Elastin is Localised to the Interfascicular Matrix of Energy Storing Tendons and Becomes Increasingly Disorganised With Ageing. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-09995-4

Tendon is composed of fascicles bound together by the interfascicular matrix (IFM). Energy storing tendons are more elastic and extensible than positional tendons; behaviour provided by specialisation of the IFM to enable repeated interfascicular sli...

Hypercoagulability progresses to hypocoagulability during evolution of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury in pigs (2017)
Journal Article
Lee, K. C. L., Baker, L., Mallett, S., Riddell, A., Chowdary, P., Alibhai, H. I. K., …Agarwal, B. (2017). Hypercoagulability progresses to hypocoagulability during evolution of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury in pigs. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-09508-3

Increases in prothrombin time (PT) and international normalised ratio (INR) characterise acute liver injury (ALI) and failure (ALF), yet a wide heterogeneity in clotting abnormalities exists. This study defines evolution of coagulopathy in 10 pigs wi... Read More about Hypercoagulability progresses to hypocoagulability during evolution of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury in pigs.

Comparison of veterinary drugs and veterinary homeopathy: part 2 (2017)
Journal Article
Lees, P., Chambers, D., Pelligand, L., Toutain, P. L., Whiting, M., & Whitehead, M. L. (2017). Comparison of veterinary drugs and veterinary homeopathy: part 2. Veterinary Record, 181, 198-207. https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.104279

Part 2 of this narrative review outlines the theoretical and practical bases for assessing the efficacy and effectiveness of conventional medicines and homeopathic products. Known and postulated mechanisms of action are critically reviewed. The evide... Read More about Comparison of veterinary drugs and veterinary homeopathy: part 2.

Anti-nausea effects and pharmacokinetics of ondansetron, maropitant and metoclopramide in a low-dose cisplatin model of nausea and vomiting in the dog: a blinded crossover study (2017)
Journal Article
Kenward, H., Elliott, J., Lee, T., & Pelligand, L. (2017). Anti-nausea effects and pharmacokinetics of ondansetron, maropitant and metoclopramide in a low-dose cisplatin model of nausea and vomiting in the dog: a blinded crossover study. BMC Veterinary Research, 13(1), 244. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-017-1156-7

Nausea is a subjective sensation which is difficult to measure in non-verbal species. The aims of this study were to determine the efficacy of three classes of antiemetic drugs in a novel low dose cisplatin model of nausea and vomiting and measure ch...

A quantitative evaluation of physical and digital approaches to centre of mass estimation (2017)
Journal Article
Macaulay, S., Hutchinson, J. R., & Bates, K. T. (2017). A quantitative evaluation of physical and digital approaches to centre of mass estimation. Journal of Anatomy, 231(5), 758-775. https://doi.org/10.1111/joa.12667

Centre of mass is a fundamental anatomical and biomechanical parameter. Knowledge of centre of mass is essential to inform studies investigating locomotion and other behaviours, through its implications for segment movements, and on whole body factor...

Comparison of veterinary drugs and veterinary homeopathy: part 1 (2017)
Journal Article
Lees, P., Chambers, D., Pelligand, L., Toutain, P. L., Whiting, M., & Whitehead, M. L. (2017). Comparison of veterinary drugs and veterinary homeopathy: part 1. Veterinary Record, 181(7), 170-176. https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.104278

For many years after its invention around 1796, homeopathy was widely used in people and later in animals. Over the intervening period (1796-2016) pharmacology emerged as a science from Materia Medica (medicinal materials) to become the mainstay of v...

Direct activation of NADPH oxidase 2 by 2-deoxyribose-1-phosphate triggers nuclear factor kappa B-dependent angiogenesis. (2017)
Journal Article
Vara, D., Watt, J. M., Fortunato, T. M., Mellor, H., Burgess, M., Wicks, K., …Pula, G. (2017). Direct activation of NADPH oxidase 2 by 2-deoxyribose-1-phosphate triggers nuclear factor kappa B-dependent angiogenesis. https://doi.org/10.1089/ars.2016.6869

AbstractAims: Deoxyribose-1-phosphate (dRP) is a proangiogenic paracrine stimulus released by cancer cells, platelets, and macrophages and acting on endothelial cells. The objective of this study was to clarify how dRP stimulates angiogenic responses...
