Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) continues to be one of the most widely distributed chronic infectious diseases of zoonotic importance, which causes a significant economic loss in animal production. A cross-sectional study was conducted to estimate the prev... Read More about Epidemiology of Bovine Tuberculosis and Its Zoonotic Implication in Addis Ababa Milkshed, Central Ethiopia.

Background Haematopoietic stem cells expressing the CD34 surface marker have been posited as a niche for Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex bacilli during latent tuberculosis infection. Our aim was to determine whether M tuberculosis complex DNA is d...

Use of precision-cut tissue slices as a translational model to study host-pathogen and vaccine assessment (2021)
Journal Article
Majorova, D., Atkins, E., Martineau, H., Vokral, I., Oosterhuis, D., Olinga, P., Wren, B., Cuccui, J., Wren, B., & Werling, D. Use of precision-cut tissue slices as a translational model to study host-pathogen and vaccine assessment. Manuscript submitted for publication

The recent increase in new technologies to analyse host-pathogen interaction has fostered a race to develop new methodologies to assess these not only on the cellular level, but also on the tissue level. Due to mouse-other mammal differences, there i... Read More about Use of precision-cut tissue slices as a translational model to study host-pathogen and vaccine assessment.
