Cultured dissociated primary dorsal root ganglion neurons from adult horses enable study of axonal transport (2022)
Journal Article
Adalbert, R., Cahalan, S., Hopkins, E., Almuhanna, A., Loreto, A., Por, E., …Piercy, R. (2022). Cultured dissociated primary dorsal root ganglion neurons from adult horses enable study of axonal transport. Journal of Anatomy, https://doi.org/10.1111/joa.13719

Neurological disorders are prevalent in horses, but their study is challenging due to anatomic constraints and the large body size; very few host-specific in vitro models have been established to study these types of diseases, particularly from adult...

Assessing pathological changes within the nucleus ambiguus of horses with Recurrent Laryngeal Neuropathy: an extreme, length-dependent axonopathy (2019)
Journal Article
Draper, A. C. E., Cahalan, S. D., Goodwin, D., Perkins, J. D. M., & Piercy, R. J. (2019). Assessing pathological changes within the nucleus ambiguus of horses with Recurrent Laryngeal Neuropathy: an extreme, length-dependent axonopathy. Muscle & Nerve, https://doi.org/10.1002/mus.26699

Equine recurrent laryngeal neuropathy (RLN) is a naturally occurring model of length?dependent axonopathy characterised by asymmetrical degeneration of recurrent laryngeal nerve axons (RLn). Distal RLn degeneration is marked, however it is unclear wh...

How to Perform Umbilical Cord Arterial and Venous Blood Sampling in Neonatal Foals (2018)
Journal Article
Jeawon, S. S., Katz, L. M., Galvin, N. P., Cahalan, S. D., & Duggan, V. E. (2018). How to Perform Umbilical Cord Arterial and Venous Blood Sampling in Neonatal Foals. Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2018.11.003

Umbilical cord arterial and venous blood gas analysis is a commonly performed procedure in human neonatal medicine to help ascertain a newborn infant’s oxygenation and acid-base status prior to birth. Defined protocols for performing the procedure ha... Read More about How to Perform Umbilical Cord Arterial and Venous Blood Sampling in Neonatal Foals.
