Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic integration and modelling of oxytetracycline for the porcine pneumonia pathogens Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Pasteurella multocida (2017)
Journal Article
Dorey, L., Pelligand, L., Cheng, Z. R., & Lees, P. (2017). Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic integration and modelling of oxytetracycline for the porcine pneumonia pathogens Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Pasteurella multocida. Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 40(5), 505-516. https://doi.org/10.1111/jvp.12385

Pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) integration and modelling were used to predict dosage schedules of oxytetracycline for two pig pneumonia pathogens, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Pasteurella multocida. Minimum inhibitory concentration (M...

Eimeria species occurrence varies between geographic regions and poultry production systems and may influence parasite genetic diversity (2017)
Journal Article
Chengat Prakashbabu, B., Thenmozhi, V., Limon, G., Kundu, K., Kumar, S., Garg, R., …Blake, D. P. (2017). Eimeria species occurrence varies between geographic regions and poultry production systems and may influence parasite genetic diversity. Veterinary Parasitology, 233, 62-72. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vetpar.2016.12.003

Coccidiosis is one of the biggest challenges faced by the global poultry industry. Recent studies have highlighted the ubiquitous distribution of all Eimeria species which can cause this disease in chickens, but intriguingly revealed a regional divid...

A Unique Capsule Locus in the Newly Designated Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Serovar 16 and Development of a Diagnostic PCR Assay (2017)
Journal Article
Bossé, J. T., Li, Y., Sárközi, R., Gottschalk, M., Angen, Ø., Nedbalcova, K., …Langford, P. R. (2017). A Unique Capsule Locus in the Newly Designated Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Serovar 16 and Development of a Diagnostic PCR Assay. Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 55(3), 902-907. https://doi.org/10.1128/JCM.02166-16

Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae causes pleuropneumonia, an economically significant lung disease of pigs. Recently, isolates of A. pleuropneumoniae that were serologically distinct from the previously characterized 15 serovars were described, and a p...

Feline hypersomatotropism and acromegaly tumorigenesis: a potential role for the AIP gene (2017)
Journal Article
Scudder, C. J., Niessen, S. J. M., Catchpole, B., Fowkes, R. C., Church, D. B., & Forcada, Y. (2017). Feline hypersomatotropism and acromegaly tumorigenesis: a potential role for the AIP gene. Domestic Animal Endocrinology, 59, 134-139. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.domaniend.2016.11.005

Acromegaly in humans is usually sporadic, however up to 20% of familial isolated pituitary adenomas are caused by germline sequence variants of the aryl-hydrocarbon-receptor interacting protein (AIP) gene. Feline acromegaly has similarities to human... Read More about Feline hypersomatotropism and acromegaly tumorigenesis: a potential role for the AIP gene.

Antibody responses to avian influenza viruses in wild birds broaden with age (2016)
Journal Article
Hill, S. C., Manvell, R. J., Schulenburg, B., Shell, W., Wikramaratna, P. S., Perrins, C., …Pybus, O. G. (2016). Antibody responses to avian influenza viruses in wild birds broaden with age. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2016.2159

For viruses such as avian influenza, immunity within a host population can drive the emergence of new strains by selecting for viruses with novel antigens that avoid immune recognition. The accumulation of acquired immunity with age is hypothesized t... Read More about Antibody responses to avian influenza viruses in wild birds broaden with age.
