Kinematic control of extreme jump angles in the red leg running frog (Kassina maculata) (2017)
Journal Article
Richards, C. T., Porro, L. B., & Collings, A. J. (2017). Kinematic control of extreme jump angles in the red leg running frog (Kassina maculata). Journal of Experimental Biology, 220, 1894-1904. https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.144279

The kinematic flexibility of frog hindlimbs enables multiple locomotor modes within a single species. Prior work has extensively explored maximum performance capacity in frogs; however, the mechanisms by which anurans modulate performance within loco...

Leukocyte Adhesion Under Hemodynamic Flow Conditions (2017)
Journal Article
Lawson, C., Rose, M., & Wolf, S. (2017). Leukocyte Adhesion Under Hemodynamic Flow Conditions. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-6931-9_7

Vascular endothelial cells (ECs) line the luminal side of all blood vessels and act as a selective barrier between blood and tissue. ECs are constantly exposed to biochemical and biomechanical stimuli from the blood and underlying tissue. Fluid shear... Read More about Leukocyte Adhesion Under Hemodynamic Flow Conditions.

Cellular preservation of musculoskeletal specializations in the Cretaceous bird Confuciusornis (2017)
Journal Article
Jiang, B. Y., Zhao, T., Regnault, S., Edwards, N. P., Kohn, S. C., Li, Z. H., Wogelius, R. A., Benton, M. J., & Hutchinson, J. R. (2017). Cellular preservation of musculoskeletal specializations in the Cretaceous bird Confuciusornis. Nature Communications, 8, 14779. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms14779

The hindlimb of theropod dinosaurs changed appreciably in the lineage leading to extant birds, becoming more ‘crouched’ in association with changes to body shape and gait dynamics. This postural evolution included anatomical changes of the foot and a... Read More about Cellular preservation of musculoskeletal specializations in the Cretaceous bird Confuciusornis.

CCL2 and CCR2 regulate pain-related behaviour and early gene expression in post-traumatic murine osteoarthritis but contribute little to chondropathy (2017)

The chromatin remodeling factor CHD7 controls cerebellar development by regulating reelin expression (2017)
Journal Article
Whittaker, D. E., Riegman, K. L. H., Kasah, S., Mohan, C., Yu, T., Sala, B. P., Hebaishi, H., Caruso, A., Marques, A. C., Michetti, C., Smachetti, M. E. S., Shah, A., Sabbioni, M., Kulhanci, O., Tee, W.-W., Reinberg, D., Scattoni, M. L., Volk, H. A., McGonnell, I. M., Wardle, F. C., …Basson, M. A. (2017). The chromatin remodeling factor CHD7 controls cerebellar development by regulating reelin expression. Journal of Clinical Investigation, 127(3), 874-887. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI83408

The mechanisms underlying the neurodevelopmental deficits associated with CHARGE syndrome, which include cerebellar hypoplasia, developmental delay, coordination problems, and autistic features, have not been identified. CHARGE syndrome has been asso... Read More about The chromatin remodeling factor CHD7 controls cerebellar development by regulating reelin expression.

Regional differentiation of felid vertebral column evolution: a study of 3D shape trajectories (2017)
Journal Article
Randau, M., Cuff, A., Hutchinson, J. R., Pierce, S. E., & Goswami, A. R. (2017). Regional differentiation of felid vertebral column evolution: a study of 3D shape trajectories. https://doi.org/10.1007/s13127-016-0304-4

Recent advances in geometric morphometrics provide improved techniques for extraction of biological information from shape and have greatly contributed to the study of ecomorphology and morphological evolution. However, the vertebral column remains a... Read More about Regional differentiation of felid vertebral column evolution: a study of 3D shape trajectories.
