Journal Article
Bhattacharjee, S., Davies, D. C., Mcgonnell, I. M., Holmes, J. M., Kilroy, D., Holland, J. C., & Reynolds, A. L. (2022). On the importance of integrating comparative anatomy and One Health perspectives in anatomy education. Journal of Anatomy, 240(3), 429-446. https://doi.org/10.1111/joa

As a result of many factors, including climate change, unrestricted population growth, widespread deforestation and intensive agriculture, a new pattern of diseases in humans is emerging. With increasing encroachment by human societies into wild doma... Read More about On the importance of integrating comparative anatomy and One Health perspectives in anatomy education.

Early life exposure to air pollution impacts neuronal and glial cell function leading to impaired neurodevelopment (2021)
Journal Article
Morris, R. H., Counsell, S. J., McGonnell, I. M., & Thornton, C. (in press). Early life exposure to air pollution impacts neuronal and glial cell function leading to impaired neurodevelopment. BioEssays, 2000288. https://doi.org/10.1002/bies.202000288

The World Health Organisation recently listed air pollution as the most significant threat to human health. Air pollution comprises particulate matter (PM), metals, black carbon and gases such as ozone (O3), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and carbon monoxide...

Sensitivity of the Natriuretic Peptide/cGMP System to Hyperammonaemia in Rat C6 Glioma Cells and GPNT Brain Endothelial Cells (2021)
Journal Article
Regan, J., Mirczuk, S., Scudder, C., Stacey, E., Khan, S., Powles, T., …Fowkes, R. (2021). Sensitivity of the Natriuretic Peptide/cGMP System to Hyperammonaemia in Rat C6 Glioma Cells and GPNT Brain Endothelial Cells. Cells, https://doi.org/10.3390/cells10020398

C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is the major natriuretic peptide of the central nervous system and acts via its selective guanylyl cyclase-B (GC-B) receptor to regulate cGMP production in neurons, astrocytes and endothelial cells. CNP is implicated... Read More about Sensitivity of the Natriuretic Peptide/cGMP System to Hyperammonaemia in Rat C6 Glioma Cells and GPNT Brain Endothelial Cells.

Natriuretic peptide expression and function in GH3 somatolactotropes and feline somatotrope pituitary tumors (2021)
Journal Article
Mirczuk, S., Scudder, C., Read, J., Crossley, V., Regan, J., Richardson, K., …Fowkes, R. (2021). Natriuretic peptide expression and function in GH3 somatolactotropes and feline somatotrope pituitary tumors. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, -. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms22031076

Patients harbouring mutations in genes encoding C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP; NPPC) or its receptor guanylyl cyclase B (GC-B, NPR2) suffer from severe growth phenotypes; loss-of-function mutations cause achondroplasia, whereas gain-of-function mut...
