Arterial medial calcification (AMC) is the deposition of calcium phosphate mineral, often as hydroxyapatite, in the medial layer of the arteries. AMC shares some similarities to skeletal mineralisation and has been associated with the transdifferenti...

Veterinary Pathology, 56(6), 868-877. https://doi.org/10.1177/0300985819854435

Nonocular melanocytic neoplasia is considered uncommon in cats yet is routinely encountered in diagnostic pathology and recognized to exhibit a wide variation in biological behavior. Accurate prediction of clinical outcomes is challenging with no wid...

Retrospective evaluation of the association between admission blood glucose and l-lactate concentrations in ponies and horses with gastrointestinal disease (2008-2016): 545 cases (2019)
Journal Article
Dunkel, B., Mason, C. J., & Chang, Y. M. (2019). Retrospective evaluation of the association between admission blood glucose and l-lactate concentrations in ponies and horses with gastrointestinal disease (2008-2016): 545 cases. Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, https://doi.org/10.1111/vec.12851

A recent study described increased l‐lactate concentrations in ponies with gastrointestinal disease compared to horses, but blood glucose (BG) concentrations were not considered. The study tested the hypothesis that BG and l‐lactate concentrations ar...

Targeting Drp1 and mitochondrial fission for therapeutic immune modulation (2019)
Journal Article
Simula, L., Campanella, M., & Campello, S. (2019). Targeting Drp1 and mitochondrial fission for therapeutic immune modulation. Pharmacological Research, 146, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.phrs.2019.104317

Mitochondria are dynamic organelles whose processes of fusion and fission are tightly regulated by specialized proteins, known as mitochondria-shaping proteins. Among them, Drp1 is the main pro-fission protein and its activity is tightly regulated to... Read More about Targeting Drp1 and mitochondrial fission for therapeutic immune modulation.

Semi-Mechanistic Modeling of Florfenicol Time-Kill Curves and in silico Dose Fractionation for Calf Respiratory Pathogens (2019)
Journal Article

An important application of time-kill curve (TKC) assays is determination of the nature of the best PK/PD index (fAUC/MIC or fT% > MIC) and its target value for predicting clinical efficacy in vivo. VetCAST (the veterinary subcommittee of EUCAST) her... Read More about Semi-Mechanistic Modeling of Florfenicol Time-Kill Curves and in silico Dose Fractionation for Calf Respiratory Pathogens.
