Renal fibrosis in feline chronic kidney disease: known mediators and mechanisms of injury (2015)
Journal Article
Lawson, J. S., Elliott, J., Wheeler-Jones, C. P. D., Syme, H. M., & Jepson, R. E. (2015). Renal fibrosis in feline chronic kidney disease: known mediators and mechanisms of injury. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2014.10.009

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common medical condition of ageing cats. In most cases the underlying aetiology is unknown, but the most frequently reported pathological diagnosis is renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Renal fibrosis, characterised...

Urinary and faecal N-methylhistamine concentrations do not serve as markers for mast cell activation or clinical disease activity in dogs with chronic enteropathies (2014)
Journal Article
Anfinsen, K. P., Berghoff, N., Priestnall, S. L., Suchodolski, J. S., Steiner, J. M., & Allenspach, K. (2014). Urinary and faecal N-methylhistamine concentrations do not serve as markers for mast cell activation or clinical disease activity in dogs with chronic enteropathies. Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 56(90), https://doi.org/10.1186/s13028-014-0090-y

This study sought to correlate faecal and urinary N-methylhistamine (NMH) concentrations with resting versus degranulated duodenal mast cell numbers in dogs with chronic enteropathies (CE), and investigate correlations between intestinal mast cell ac...

Increasing antimicrobial resistance in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus intermedius group bacteria and emergence of MRSP in the UK (2014)
Journal Article
Beever, L. J., Bond, R., Graham, P. A., Jackson, B. F., Lloyd, D. H., & Loeffler, A. (2014). Increasing antimicrobial resistance in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus intermedius group bacteria and emergence of MRSP in the UK. Veterinary Record, 176(7), 172+. https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.102651

Frequencies of antimicrobial resistance were determined amongst 14,555 clinical Staphylococcus intermedius group (SIG) isolates from UK dogs and cats to estimate resistance trends and quantify the occurrence of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus pse...

Extensive Horizontal Gene Transfer during Staphylococcus aureus Co-colonization In Vivo (2014)
Journal Article
McCarthy, A. J., Loeffler, A., Witney, A. A., Gould, K. A., Lloyd, D. H., & Lindsay, J. A. (2014). Extensive Horizontal Gene Transfer during Staphylococcus aureus Co-colonization In Vivo. Genome Biology and Evolution, 6(10), 2697-2708. https://doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evu214

Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal and major pathogen of humans and animals. Comparative genomics of S. aureus populations suggests that colonization of different host species is associated with carriage of mobile genetic elements (MGE), particular...
