Bone apparent and material densities examined by cone beam computed tomography and the Archimedes technique: comparison of the two methods and their results (2018)
Journal Article
Adams, G. J., Cook, R. B., Hutchinson, J. R., & Ziopos, P. (2018). Bone apparent and material densities examined by cone beam computed tomography and the Archimedes technique: comparison of the two methods and their results. Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 3(23), https://doi.org/10.3389/fmech.2017.00023

An understanding of bone apparent and material densities and how they vary within bone at the organ level is of great interest in the understanding of degenerative bone conditions and for biomedical engineering applications. The densities of bone tis...

Structure and collagen crimp patterns of functionally distinct equine tendons, revealed by quantitative polarised light microscopy (qPLM) (2018)
Journal Article
Spiesz, E. M., Thorpe, C. T., Thurner, P. J., & Screen, H. R. C. (2018). Structure and collagen crimp patterns of functionally distinct equine tendons, revealed by quantitative polarised light microscopy (qPLM). Acta Biomaterialia, 70, 281-292. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2018.01.034

Structure-function relationships in tendons are directly influenced by the arrangement of collagen fibres. However, the details of such arrangements in functionally distinct tendons remain obscure. This study demonstrates the use of quantitative pola...

Pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic integration and modelling of oxytetracycline for the calf pathogens Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella multocida (2018)
Journal Article
Lees, P., Potter, T., Pelligand, L., & Toutain, P. L. (2018). Pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic integration and modelling of oxytetracycline for the calf pathogens Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella multocida. Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 41(1), 28-38. https://doi.org/10.1111/jvp.12439

A calf tissue cage model was used to study the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of oxytetracycline in serum, inflamed (exudate) and noninflamed (transudate) tissue cage fluids. After intramuscular administration, the PK was characteriz...

The availability of genomic resources including linkage information for camelids has been very limited. Here, we describe the construction of a set of two radiation hybrid (RH) panels (5000RAD and 15000RAD) for the dromedary (Camelus dromedarius) as...

Anatomical network analysis of the musculoskeletal system reveals integration loss and parcellation boost during the fins-to-limbs transition (2018)
Journal Article
Esteve-Altava, B., Molnar, J. L., Johnston, P., Hutchinson, J. R., & Diogo, R. (2018). Anatomical network analysis of the musculoskeletal system reveals integration loss and parcellation boost during the fins-to-limbs transition. Evolution, https://doi.org/10.1111/evo.13430

Tetrapods evolved from within the lobe-finned fishes around 370 Ma. The evolution of limbs from lobe-fins entailed a major re-organization of the skeletal and muscular anatomy of appendages in early tetrapods. Concurrently, a degree of similarity bet...

FGF-2 promotes osteocyte differentiation through increased E11/podoplanin expression (2018)
Journal Article
Ikpegbu, E., Basta, L., Clements, D. N., Fleming, R., Vincent, T. L., Buttle, D. J., Pitsillides, A. A., Staines, K. A., & Farquharson, C. (2018). FGF-2 promotes osteocyte differentiation through increased E11/podoplanin expression. Journal of Cellular Physiology, 233(7), 5334-5347. https://doi.org/10.1002/jcp.26345

E11/podoplanin is critical in the early stages of osteoblast-to-osteocyte transitions (osteocytogenesis), however, the upstream events which regulate E11 expression are unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of FGF-2 on E11-mediate... Read More about FGF-2 promotes osteocyte differentiation through increased E11/podoplanin expression.
