Type I and III interferons disrupt lung epithelial repair during recovery from viral infection (2020)
Journal Article
Major, J., Crotta, S., Llorian, M., McCabe, T. M., Gad, H. H., Priestnall, S. L., Hartmann, R., & Wack, A. (2020). Type I and III interferons disrupt lung epithelial repair during recovery from viral infection. Science, 369(6504), 712-717. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.abc2061

Interferons (IFNs) are central to antiviral immunity. Viral recognition elicits IFN production, which in turn triggers the transcription of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), which engage in various antiviral functions. Type I IFNs (IFN-α and IFN-β) are wi...

Equine penile squamous cell carcinoma: expression of biomarker proteins and EcPV2 (2020)
Journal Article
Arthurs, C., Suarez-Bonnet, A., Willis, C., Xie, B., Machulla, N., Mair, T. S., Cao, K., Millar, M., Thrasivoulou, C., Priestnall, S. L., & Ahmed, A. (2020). Equine penile squamous cell carcinoma: expression of biomarker proteins and EcPV2. Scientific Reports, 10(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-64014-3

Equine penile squamous cell carcinoma (EpSCC) is a relatively common cutaneous neoplasm with a poor prognosis. In this study, we aimed to determine the protein expression and colocalisation of FRA1, c-Myc, Cyclin D1, and MMP7 in normal (NT), tumour (...

Although mouse infection models have been extensively used to study the host response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, their validity in revealing determinants of human tuberculosis (TB) resistance and disease progression has been heavily debated. Here... Read More about Mouse transcriptome reveals potential signatures of protection and pathogenesis in human tuberculosis.
