The Crandell-Rees Feline Kidney Cell (CRFK) is an immortalised cell line derived from the feline kidney that is utilised for the growth of certain vaccinal viruses. Confusion exists as to whether CRFK are epithelial or mesenchymal in phenotype. The a... Read More about Characterisation of Crandell-Rees Feline Kidney (CRFK) cells as mesenchymal in phenotype.

The Genetic Architecture of Bovine Telomere Length in Early Life and Association With Animal Fitness (2019)
Journal Article

Health and survival are key goals for selective breeding in farm animals. Progress, however, is often limited by the low heritability of these animal fitness traits in addition to measurement difficulties. In this respect, relevant early-life biomark...

PLoS ONE, 14, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0224524

Exercise induced intermittent dorsal displacement of the soft palate (DDSP) is a common cause of airway obstruction and poor performance in racehorses. The definite etiology is still unclear, but through an experimental model, a role in the developme...

A review of hyperfibrinolysis in cats and dogs (2019)
Journal Article
Birkbeck, R. N., Cortellini, S., & Humm, K. R. (2019). A review of hyperfibrinolysis in cats and dogs. Journal of Small Animal Practice, 60(11), 641-655. https://doi.org/10.1111/jsap.13068

The fibrinolytic system is activated concurrently with coagulation; it regulates haemostasis and prevents thrombosis by restricting clot formation to the area of vascular injury and dismantling the clot as healing occurs. Dysregulation of the fibrino... Read More about A review of hyperfibrinolysis in cats and dogs.

Preliminary insight into horse owners' perceptions of, and attitudes towards, exotic diseases in the United Kingdom (2019)
Journal Article
Spence, K. L., Cardwell, J. M., Slater, J. D., & Rosanowski, S. M. (2019). Preliminary insight into horse owners' perceptions of, and attitudes towards, exotic diseases in the United Kingdom. BMC Veterinary Research, 15(338), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-019-2120-5

The potential for an exotic disease incursion is a significant concern for the United Kingdom (UK) equine industry. Horse owners’ perceptions of, and attitudes towards, exotic diseases can influence decisions to adopt disease preparedness strategies....
