Bone biomarkers and risk of fracture in two- and three-year-old Thoroughbreds
Journal Article
Jackson, B. F., Dyson, P. K., Lonnell, C., Verheyen, K. L. P., Pfeiffer, D. U., & Price, J. S. Bone biomarkers and risk of fracture in two- and three-year-old Thoroughbreds. Equine Veterinary Journal, 41(4), 410-413. https://doi.org/10.2746/042516409x416206

The aim of this study was to determine whether bone biomarkers (osteocalcin, PICP, ICTP and CTX-I) could be used to identify 2- and 3-year-olds at increased risk of fracture in the subsequent flat racing season. It was concluded that these bone bioma... Read More about Bone biomarkers and risk of fracture in two- and three-year-old Thoroughbreds.

Subclinical hyperthyroidism in cats: A spontaneous model of subclinical toxic nodular goiter in humans?
Journal Article
Wakeling, J., Smith, K. C., Scase, T., Kirkby, R., Elliott, J., & Syme, H. M. Subclinical hyperthyroidism in cats: A spontaneous model of subclinical toxic nodular goiter in humans?. https://doi.org/10.1089/thy.2007.0225

Introduction and Objectives: Hyperthyroidism in cats, caused by nodular hyperplasia or adenomas, is clinically and histologically similar to toxic nodular goiter in humans. Subclinical hyperthyroidism in humans is defined as low thyrotropin (TSH) in...

Squalestatin alters the intracellular trafficking of a neurotoxic prion peptide
Journal Article
Wilson, R., Bate, C., Boshuizen, R., Williams, A., & Brewer, J. Squalestatin alters the intracellular trafficking of a neurotoxic prion peptide. BMC Neuroscience, 8,

Background: Neurotoxic peptides derived from the protease-resistant core of the prion protein are used to model the pathogenesis of prion diseases. The current study characterised the ingestion, internalization and intracellular trafficking of a neur...
