Optimisation and validation of immunohistochemical axonal markers for morphological and functional characterisation of equine peripheral nerves. Equine Veterinary Journal, 53(6), 1188-1198. https://doi.org/10.1111/evj.13403

Background: Horses are affected by various peripheral nerve disorders but defining their aetiology and pathophysiology is hampered by limited understanding of associated morphological and pathological changes and involvement of specific axonal types....

Human-relevant near-organ neuromodulation of the immune via the nerve (2021)
Journal Article
Donega, M., Fjordbakk, C., Kirk, J., Sokal, D., Gupta, I., Hunsberger, G., …Perkins, J. (2021). Human-relevant near-organ neuromodulation of the immune via the nerve. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 118(20), https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2025428118

Neuromodulation of immune function by stimulating the autonomic connections to the spleen has been demonstrated in rodent models. Consequently, neuroimmune modulation has been proposed as a new therapeutic strategy for the treatment of inflammatory c...
