Gene editing restores dystrophin expression in a canine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (2018)
Journal Article
Amoasii, L., Hildyard, J. C. W., Li, H., Sanchez-Ortiz, E., Mireault, A., Caballero, D., …Olson, E. N. (2018). Gene editing restores dystrophin expression in a canine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Science, 362(6410), 86-91. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aau1549

Mutations in the gene encoding dystrophin, a protein that maintains muscle integrity and function, cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The deltaE50-MD dog model of DMD harbors a mutation corresponding to a mutational “hotspot” in the human DMD g...

Aldosterone-producing adrenocortical carcinoma with myxoid differentiation in a cat (2018)
Journal Article
Attipa, C., Beck, S., Lipscomb, V. J., English, K., Carvalho, S., Kiupel, M., …Peters, L. M. (2018). Aldosterone-producing adrenocortical carcinoma with myxoid differentiation in a cat. Veterinary Clinical Pathology, 47(4), 660-664. https://doi.org/10.1111/vcp.12658

A 10‐year‐old male neutered Persian cat was presented with an abdominal mass and history of weakness. Blood smear examination found marked elliptocytosis, and serum biochemical analysis revealed hypokalemia, hypochloremia, increased creatine kinase a...

The scaling or ontogeny of human gait kinetics and walk-run transition: The implications of work vs. peak power minimization (2018)
Journal Article
Usherwood, J. R., Hubel, T. Y., Smith, B. J. H., Self Davies, Z. T., & Sobota, G. (2018). The scaling or ontogeny of human gait kinetics and walk-run transition: The implications of work vs. peak power minimization. Journal of Biomechanics, 81, 12-21. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2018.09.004

A simple model is developed to find vertical force profiles and stance durations that minimize either limb mechanical work or peak power demands during bipedal locomotion. The model predicts that work minimization is achieved with a symmetrical verti...
