Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common orthopaedic condition in dogs, characterised as chronic, painful end-point of a synovial joint with limited therapeutic options other than palliative pain control or surgical salvage. Since the 1970s, radiograph... Read More about Moving beyond the limits of detection: the past, the present, and the future of diagnostic imaging in canine osteoarthritis.

Polymorphisms in the canine IL7R 3 ' UTR are associated with thymic output in Labrador retriever dogs and influence post-transcriptional regulation by microRNA 185 (2018)
Journal Article
Holder, A. L., Jones, G., Soutter, F., Palmer, D. B., Aspinall, R., & Catchpole, B. (2018). Polymorphisms in the canine IL7R 3 ' UTR are associated with thymic output in Labrador retriever dogs and influence post-transcriptional regulation by microRNA 185.

Interleukin-7 (IL-7) and its receptor (IL-7R) are essential for T cell development in the thymus, and changes in the IL-7/IL-7R pathway have been implicated in age-associated thymic involution which results in a reduction of naïve T cell output. The... Read More about Polymorphisms in the canine IL7R 3 ' UTR are associated with thymic output in Labrador retriever dogs and influence post-transcriptional regulation by microRNA 185.
