Oxidation of chylomicron remnants and vascular dysfunction
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Botham, K. M. Oxidation of chylomicron remnants and vascular dysfunction. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atherosclerosissup.2008.05.009

Recent evidence suggests that chylomicron remnants (CMRs), the lipoproteins which carry dietary lipids in the blood, may play a direct role in the initiation of atherosclerosis by influencing vascular function. Unlike low-density lipoprotein (LDL), C... Read More about Oxidation of chylomicron remnants and vascular dysfunction.

Physical activity: does long-term, high-intensity exercise in horses result in tendon degeneration?
Journal Article
Birch, H. L., Wilson, A. M., & Goodship, A. E. Physical activity: does long-term, high-intensity exercise in horses result in tendon degeneration?. Journal of Applied Physiology, 105(6), 1927-1933. https://doi.org/10.1152/japplphysiol.00717.2007

This study explores the hypothesis that high-intensity exercise induces degenerative changes in the injury-prone equine superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT), but not in the rarely injured common digital extensor tendon (CDET). The horse represent... Read More about Physical activity: does long-term, high-intensity exercise in horses result in tendon degeneration?.

Brain asymmetry is encoded at the level of axon terminal morphology
Journal Article
Bianco, I. H., Carl, M., Russell, C., Clarke, J. D. W., & Wilson, S. W. Brain asymmetry is encoded at the level of axon terminal morphology. Neural Development, 3, 9. https://doi.org/10.1186/1749-8104-3-9

Background: Functional lateralization is a conserved feature of the central nervous system (CNS). However, underlying left-right asymmetries within neural circuitry and the mechanisms by which they develop are poorly described. Results: In this study...
