Olfactory ensheathing cell (OEC) transplantation is a promising strategy for treating spinal cord injury (SCI), as has been demonstrated in experimental SCI models and naturally occurring SCI in dogs. However, the presence of chondroitin sulphate pro...

Dogs with macroadenomas have lower body temperature and heart rate than dogs with microadenomas (2017)
Journal Article
Benchekroun, G., Desquilbet, L., Herrtage, M. E., Jeffery, N. D., Rosenberg, D., & Granger, N. (2017). Dogs with macroadenomas have lower body temperature and heart rate than dogs with microadenomas. The Veterinary Journal, 227, 42-45. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2017.08.007

Pituitary macroadenomas compress the hypothalamus, which partly regulates heart rate and body temperature. The aim of this study was to investigate whether heart rate and/or body temperature could aid in clinically differentiating dogs with macroaden...
