A U(H)PLC–MS/MS method is described for the analysis of acetaminophen and its sulphate, glucuronide, glutathione, cysteinyl and N-acetylcysteinyl metabolites in plasma using stable isotope-labeled internal standards. P-Aminophenol glucuronide and 3-m... Read More about The analysis of acetaminophen (paracetamol) and seven metabolites in rat, pig and human plasma by U(H)PLC–MS.

Metabolism and Effects on Endogenous Metabolism of Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) in a Porcine Model of Liver Failure (2020)
Journal Article
Dargue, R., Zia, R., Lau, C., Nicholls, A. W., Dare, T. O., Lee, K. C. L., …Wilson, I. D. (2020). Metabolism and Effects on Endogenous Metabolism of Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) in a Porcine Model of Liver Failure. Toxicological Sciences, https://doi.org/10.1093/toxsci/kfaa023

The metabolic fate, toxicity and effects on endogenous metabolism of paracetamol (acetaminophen, APAP) in 22 female Landrace cross large white pigs were evaluated in a model of acute liver failure (ALF). Anaesthetized pigs were initially dosed at 250... Read More about Metabolism and Effects on Endogenous Metabolism of Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) in a Porcine Model of Liver Failure.

Use of subcutaneous ureteral bypass systems as a bridge to definitive ureteral repair in a cat with bilateral ureteral ligation secondary to complicated ovariohysterectomy (2019)
Journal Article
Beer, A., Lipscomb, V. J., Rutherford, L., & Lee, K. C. L. (2019). Use of subcutaneous ureteral bypass systems as a bridge to definitive ureteral repair in a cat with bilateral ureteral ligation secondary to complicated ovariohysterectomy. https://doi.org/10.1136/vetreccr-2018-000758

A kitten presented with acute kidney injury, bilateral hydronephrosis and proximal hydroureter, three?days following bilateral ureteral ligation, during a complicated ovariohysterectomy procedure. Clinical signs were anorexia, lethargy, weakness, hyp...

Hypercoagulability progresses to hypocoagulability during evolution of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury in pigs (2017)
Journal Article
Lee, K. C. L., Baker, L., Mallett, S., Riddell, A., Chowdary, P., Alibhai, H. I. K., …Agarwal, B. (2017). Hypercoagulability progresses to hypocoagulability during evolution of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury in pigs. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-09508-3

Increases in prothrombin time (PT) and international normalised ratio (INR) characterise acute liver injury (ALI) and failure (ALF), yet a wide heterogeneity in clotting abnormalities exists. This study defines evolution of coagulopathy in 10 pigs wi... Read More about Hypercoagulability progresses to hypocoagulability during evolution of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury in pigs.

Circulating microRNAs Reveal Time Course of Organ Injury in a Porcine Model of Acetaminophen-Induced Acute Liver Failure (2015)
Journal Article
