Heart failure is common in diabetic cats : findings from a retrospective case-controlled study in first-opinionpractice [PDF]

, 2007
Diabetes mellitus is common in the cat and the prevalence of this condition appears to be increasing (Peterson 1998,Rand and Marshall 2004, Rand and others 2004). The prognosis for cats with diabetes mellitus in first opinion practice has received little

Cats and dogs

2012 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2012
We investigate the fine grained object categorization problem of determining the breed of animal from an image. To this end we introduce a new annotated dataset of pets covering 37 different breeds of cats and dogs. The visual problem is very challenging as these animals, particularly cats, are very deformable and there can be quite subtle differences ...

The Best Model for a Cat is the Same Cat … or is It? [PDF]

Epilepsy Currents, 2007
Effect of Antiepileptic Drugs on Spontaneous Seizures in Epileptic Rats. Nissinen J, Pitkänen A. Epilepsy Res 2007;73:181–191. The present study investigated whether spontaneously seizing animals are a valid model for evaluating antiepileptic compounds in the treatment of human epilepsy.

Vitamin E requirements of adult domestic cats (Felis catus) fed diets containing high levels of fish oil : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Nutritional Sciences at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 1999
The vitamin E (α-tocopherol) requirement of adult cats fed diets containing high levels of fish oil was investigated. Thirty-two (16 male, 16 female) adult domestic cats (Felis catus) were randomly allocated to four groups according to sex and fed one of

Feline infectious peritonitis: role of the feline coronavirus 3c gene in intestinal tropism and pathogenicity based upon isolates from resident and adopted shelter cats. [PDF]

, 2012
Feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) was presumed to arise from mutations in the 3c of a ubiquitous and largely nonpathogenic feline enteric coronavirus (FECV).

A bioinformatics screen identifies TCF19 as an aggressiveness‐sustaining gene in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Gene expression meta‐analysis in multiple prostate cancer patient cohorts identifies Transcription factor 19 (TCF19) as an aggressiveness‐sustaining gene with prognostic potential. TCF19 is a gene repressed by androgen signaling that sustains core cancer‐related processes such as vascular permeability or tumor growth and metastasis.

Pasireotide for the Medical Management of Feline Hypersomatotropism [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Feline hypersomatotropism (HST) is a cause of diabetes mellitus in cats. Pasireotide is a novel multireceptor ligand somatostatin analog that improves biochemical control of humans with HST.

PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells enhances bortezomib sensitivity in multiple myeloma cells by altering their metabolism

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study investigated how PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) indirectly affects multiple myeloma (MM) cell metabolism and viability. Culturing MM cells in conditioned medium from PYCR1‐silenced BMSCs impaired oxidative phosphorylation and increased sensitivity to bortezomib.

Characterization of an Inherited Neurologic Syndrome in Toyger Cats with Forebrain Commissural Malformations, Ventriculomegaly and Interhemispheric Cysts. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundIn children, frequent congenital malformations with concomitant agenesis of the corpus callosum are diagnosed by neuroimaging in association with other cerebral malformations, including interhemispheric cysts and ventriculomegaly.

Co‐overexpression of the caloric restriction‐induced mitochondrial factors PGC‐1α and MIPEP upregulates Phospho1 expression in adipocytes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caloric restriction that extends lifespan induces the expression of PGC‐1α and MIPEP in white adipose tissue. In this study, co‐overexpression of Pgc‐1α and Mipep upregulated the gene expression of PHOSPHO1. These findings provide new insights into mitochondria‐related mechanisms underlying the effects of caloric restriction in adipocytes.
