Microbiota composition, gene pool and its expression in Gir cattle (Bos indicus) rumen under different forage diets using metagenomic and metatranscriptomic approaches. Systematic and Applied Microbiology, 41(4), 374-385. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.syapm.2018.02.002

Zebu (Bos indicus) is a domestic cattle species originating from the Indian subcontinent and now widely domesticated on several continents. In this study, we were particularly interested in understanding the functionally active rumen microbiota of an...

Characterisation of feline renal cortical fibroblast cultures and their transcriptional response to transforming growth factor beta 1 (2018)
Journal Article
Lawson, J. S., Syme, H. M., Wheeler-Jones, C. P. D., & Elliott, J. (2018). Characterisation of feline renal cortical fibroblast cultures and their transcriptional response to transforming growth factor beta 1. BMC Veterinary Research, 14, 76. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-018-1387-2

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common in geriatric cats, and the most prevalent pathology is chronic tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis. The cell type predominantly responsible for the production of extra-cellular matrix in renal fibrosis...

Evaluation of radiography as a screening method for detection and characterisation of congenital vertebral malformations in dogs (2018)
Journal Article
Brocal, J., De Decker, S., José-López, R., Guevar, J., Ortega, M., Parkin, T., …Gutierrez-Quintana, R. (2018). Evaluation of radiography as a screening method for detection and characterisation of congenital vertebral malformations in dogs. Veterinary Record, 182(573), https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.104388

Congenital vertebral malformations (CVM) are common in brachycephalic ‘screw-tailed’ dogs; they can be associated with neurological deficits and a genetic predisposition has been suggested. The purpose of this study was to evaluate radiography as a s...
