Intestinal Preparation Techniques for Histological Analysis in the Mouse (2016)
Journal Article
Williams, J. M., Duckworth, C. A., Vowell, K., Burkitt, M. D., & Pritchard, D. M. (2016). Intestinal Preparation Techniques for Histological Analysis in the Mouse. https://doi.org/10.1002/cpmo.2

The murine intestinal tract represents a difficult organ system to study due to its long convoluted tubular structure, narrow diameter, and delicate mucosa which undergoes rapid changes after sampling prior to fixation. These features do not make for... Read More about Intestinal Preparation Techniques for Histological Analysis in the Mouse.

BVDV alters uterine prostaglandin production during pregnancy recognition in cows (2016)
Journal Article
Cheng, Z. R., Abudureyimu, A., Oguejiofor, C. F., Ellis, R., Barry, A. T., Chen, X., Anstaett, O. L., Brownlie, J., & Wathes, D. C. (2016). BVDV alters uterine prostaglandin production during pregnancy recognition in cows. Reproduction, 151(6), 605-614. https://doi.org/10.1530/REP-15-0583

Embryonic mortality in cows is at least in part caused by failure of pregnancy recognition (PR). Evidence has shown that bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) infection can disrupt pregnancy. Prostaglandins (PG) play important roles in many reproductiv... Read More about BVDV alters uterine prostaglandin production during pregnancy recognition in cows.

Inferring muscle functional roles of the ostrich pelvic limb during walking and running using computer optimization (2016)
Journal Article
Rankin, J. W., Rubenson, J., & Hutchinson, J. R. (2016). Inferring muscle functional roles of the ostrich pelvic limb during walking and running using computer optimization. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2016.0035

Owing to their cursorial background, ostriches (Struthio camelus) walk and run with high metabolic economy, can reach very fast running speeds and quickly execute cutting manoeuvres. These capabilities are believed to be a result of their ability to...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Intracranial Inflammatory Conditions in Dogs: Sensitivity of Subtraction Images versus Pre- and Post-Gadolinium T1-Weighted Image Pairs (2016)
Journal Article
Dirrig, H., & Lamb, C. R. (2016). Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Intracranial Inflammatory Conditions in Dogs: Sensitivity of Subtraction Images versus Pre- and Post-Gadolinium T1-Weighted Image Pairs. https://doi.org/10.1111/vru.12371

Ante mortem diagnosis of canine meningoencephalitis is usually based on the results of neurologic examination, cerebrospinal fluid analysis and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. It has been hypothesized that subtraction MR imaging may increase the sen...

Equine atypical myopathy associated with sycamore seed ingestion in a Przewalski foal (2016)
Journal Article
Molenaar, F. M., Piercy, R. J., Dunkel, B., Manning, N., English, K., Stidworthy, M., & Masters, N. J. (2016). Equine atypical myopathy associated with sycamore seed ingestion in a Przewalski foal. https://doi.org/10.19227/jzar.v4i2.156

One of the 172 UK cases of equine atypical myopathy (EAM) reported to the Atypical Myopathy Alert Group (AMAG) in 2014 was that of a five-month old male Przewalski horse (Equus ferus przewalskii), resident at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, UK. The foal presented... Read More about Equine atypical myopathy associated with sycamore seed ingestion in a Przewalski foal.

Combinatorial Analysis of Growth Factors Reveals the Contribution of Bone Morphogenetic Proteins to Chondrogenic Differentiation of Human Periosteal Cells (2016)
Journal Article
Mendes, L. F., Tam, W. L., Chai, Y. C., Geris, L., Luyten, F. P., & Roberts, S. J. (2016). Combinatorial Analysis of Growth Factors Reveals the Contribution of Bone Morphogenetic Proteins to Chondrogenic Differentiation of Human Periosteal Cells. https://doi.org/10.1089/ten.TEC.2015.0436

Successful application of cell-based strategies in cartilage and bone tissue engineering has been hampered by the lack of robust protocols to efficiently differentiate mesenchymal stem cells into the chondrogenic lineage. The development of chemicall...
