Journal Article
Denyer, A. L., Massey, J. P., Davison, L. J., Ollier, W. E. R., Catchpole, B., & Kennedy, L. J. (2020). Dog leucocyte antigen (DLA) class II haplotypes and risk of canine diabetes mellitus in specific dog breeds. Canine Medicine and Genetics, 7(1), 15. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40575-020-00093-9

Abstract: Background: Canine diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common endocrine disease in domestic dogs. A number of pathological mechanisms are thought to contribute to the aetiopathogenesis of relative or absolute insulin deficiency, including immune-me...

Airway delivery of both a BCG prime and adenoviral boost drives CD4 and CD8 T cells into the lung tissue parenchyma (2020)
Journal Article
Kaveh, D. A., Garcia-Pelayo, M. C., Bull, N. C., Sanchez-Cordon, P. J., Spiropoulos, J., & Hogarth, P. J. (2020). Airway delivery of both a BCG prime and adenoviral boost drives CD4 and CD8 T cells into the lung tissue parenchyma. Scientific Reports, 10(1), 18703. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-75734-x

Abstract: Heterologous BCG prime-boost regimens represent a promising strategy for an urgently required improved tuberculosis vaccine. Identifying the mechanisms which underpin the enhanced protection induced by such strategies is one key aim which w...

Reflecting on One Health in Action During the COVID-19 Response (2020)
Journal Article
Häsler, B., Bazeyo, W., Byrne, A. W., Hernandez-Jover, M., More, S. J., Rüegg, S. R., …Yawe, A. (2020). Reflecting on One Health in Action During the COVID-19 Response. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 7, https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2020.578649

The COVID-19 pandemic, a singular disruptive event in recent human history, has required rapid, innovative, coordinated and collaborative approaches to manage and ameliorate its worst impacts. However, the threat remains, and learning from initial ef... Read More about Reflecting on One Health in Action During the COVID-19 Response.

Control of Brucella melitensis in endemic settings: a simulation study in the Nile Delta, Egypt (2020)
Journal Article
Mohammed Hegazy, Y., Schley, D., Ridler, A., Beauvais, W., Musallam, I., & Guitian, J. (2020). Control of Brucella melitensis in endemic settings: a simulation study in the Nile Delta, Egypt. Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, https://doi.org/10.1111/tbed.13897

Small ruminant brucellosis remains endemic in many low and middle‐income countries (LMICs), where it poses a major economic and public health burden. Lack of resources to support long‐term vaccination, inherent characteristics of small ruminant produ...

Towards a unified generic framework to define and observe contacts between livestock and wildlife: a systematic review (2020)
Journal Article
Bacigalupo, S. A., Dixon, L. K., Gubbins, S., Kucharski, A. J., & Drewe, J. A. (2020). Towards a unified generic framework to define and observe contacts between livestock and wildlife: a systematic review. PeerJ, 8, e10221. https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.10221

Wild animals are the source of many pathogens of livestock and humans. Concerns about the potential transmission of economically important and zoonotic diseases from wildlife have led to increased surveillance at the livestock-wildlife interface. Kno...

Force-of-infection of Taenia solium porcine cysticercosis: a modelling analysis to assess global incidence and prevalence trends (2020)
Journal Article
Dixon, M. A., Winskill, P., Harrison, W. E., Whittaker, C., Schmidt, V., Sarti, E., …Basáñez, M. G. (2020). Force-of-infection of Taenia solium porcine cysticercosis: a modelling analysis to assess global incidence and prevalence trends. Scientific Reports, 10(1), 17637

Abstract: The World Health Organization (WHO) called, in 2012, for a validated strategy towards Taenia solium taeniasis/cysticercosis control and elimination. Estimating pig force-of-infection (FoI, the average rate at which susceptible pigs become i...

Unravelling the health status of brachycephalic dogs in the UK using multivariable analysis (2020)
Journal Article
O’Neill, D. G., Pegram, C., Crocker, P., Brodbelt, D. C., Church, D. B., & Packer, R. M. A. (2020). Unravelling the health status of brachycephalic dogs in the UK using multivariable analysis. Scientific Reports, 10(1),

Brachycephalic dog breeds are regularly asserted as being less healthy than non-brachycephalic breeds. Using primary-care veterinary clinical data, this study aimed to identify predispositions and protections in brachycephalic dogs and explore differ...

The Growth of Eimeria tenella: Characterization and Application of Quantitative Methods to Assess Sporozoite Invasion and Endogenous Development in Cell Culture (2020)
Journal Article
Marugan-Hernandez, V., Jeremiah, G., Aguiar-Martins, K., Burrell, A., Vaughan, S., Xia, D., …Tomley, F. (2020). The Growth of Eimeria tenella: Characterization and Application of Quantitative Methods to Assess Sporozoite Invasion and Endogenous Development in Cell Culture. Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 10, 579833

In vitro development of the complete life cycle of Eimeria species has been achieved in primary cultures of avian epithelial cells with low efficiency. The use of immortalized cell lines simplifies procedures but only allows partial development throu...
