Tumour necrosis factor alpha, Interleukin 1 beta and Interferon gamma have detrimental effects on equine tenocytes that cannot be rescued by IL-1RA or mesenchymal stromal cell-derived factors (2022)
Journal Article
Guest, D., Smith, E., Beaumont, R., McClellan, A., Sze, C., Palomino Lago, E., …Smith, R. (in press). Tumour necrosis factor alpha, Interleukin 1 beta and Interferon gamma have detrimental effects on equine tenocytes that cannot be rescued by IL-1RA or mesenchymal stromal cell-derived factors. Cell and Tissue Research, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00441-022-03726-6

Tendon injuries occur commonly in both human and equine athletes, and poor tendon regeneration leads to functionally deficient scar tissue and an increased frequency of re-injury. Despite evidence suggesting inadequate resolution of inflammation le...

Changes in Head, Withers, and Pelvis Movement Asymmetry in Lame Horses as a Function of Diagnostic Anesthesia Outcome, Surface and Direction (2022)
Journal Article
Marunova, E., Hoenecke, K., Fiske-Jackson, A., Smith, R., Bolt, D., Perrier, M., …Pfau, T. (2022). Changes in Head, Withers, and Pelvis Movement Asymmetry in Lame Horses as a Function of Diagnostic Anesthesia Outcome, Surface and Direction. Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 118, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2022.104136

Evaluation of diagnostic anesthesia during equine lameness examination requires comparison of com-plex movement patterns and can be influenced by expectation bias. There is limited research about how changes in movement asymmetries after successful a...

Computed tomographic arthrography, gross anatomy and histology demonstrate a communication between synovial invaginations in the proximal aspect of the third interosseous muscle and the carpometacarpal joint in horses (2022)
Journal Article
Gerdes, C., Morgan, R., Terry, R., Foote, A., & Smith, R. (2022). Computed tomographic arthrography, gross anatomy and histology demonstrate a communication between synovial invaginations in the proximal aspect of the third interosseous muscle and the carpometacarpal joint in horses. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 9, https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2022.958598

This descriptive anatomical study investigates the relationship between the third interosseous muscle, also known as the suspensory ligament, and the carpometacarpal joint in forelimbs of horses, with the hypothesis that there was a direct synovial c...

Position Statement: Minimal criteria for reporting veterinary and animal medicine research for mesenchymal stromal/stem cells in orthopaedic applications. (2022)
Journal Article
Guest, D. J., Dudhia, J., Smith, R. K., Roberts, S., Conzemius, M., Innes, J. F., …Meeson, R. L. (2022). Position Statement: Minimal criteria for reporting veterinary and animal medicine research for mesenchymal stromal/stem cells in orthopaedic applications. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2022.817041

Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) are being used in an increasingly broad range of clinical applications in horses, dogs and cats. In this position statement, we aim to provide guidelines to improve reporting research involving the use of MSCs in...
