Journal Article
Menzies-Gow, N. J., Bailey, S. R., Berhane, Y., Brooks, A. C., & Elliott, J. Evaluation of the induction of vasoactive mediators from equine digital vein endothelial cells by endotoxin. American Journal of Veterinary Research, 69(3), 349-355

Objective - To determine the effect of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide [LPS]) on vasoactive mediator production by cultured equine digital vein endothelial cells (EDVECs). Sample Population - EDVECs obtained from forelimb digital veins of 7 healthy adu...

Laminitis in horses
Journal Article
Menzies-Gow, N. J. (in press). Laminitis in horses. Veterinary Record, 183(16), 505-506. https://doi.org/10.1136/inp.k4485

Laminitis is a common and painful condition of adult equids that often results in permanent lameness or euthanasia. In recent years, our knowledge of the condition has developed and this article discusses the current understanding of laminitis and ap... Read More about Laminitis in horses.
