Reduced FXR Target Gene Expression in Copper-Laden Livers of COMMD1-Deficient Dogs
Veterinary Sciences, 2019 Wilson’s disease (WD), an autosomal recessive disorder, results in copper accumulation in the liver as a consequence of mutations in the gene ATPase copper transporting beta (ATP7B). The disease is characterized by chronic hepatitis, eventually resulting

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Markers of Gut Health in Small Animals: Focus on Fatty Acids and Amino Acids as Indicators of Intestinal Functionality and Microbiome Activity [PDF]
Chronic inflammatory enteropathies (CIEs) in companion animals represent a group of idiopathic, immune-mediated gastrointestinal disorders in which the intestinal epithelium can be altered, affecting intestinal functionality, nutrient absorption, and ...

Forgotten, But Not Lost—Alloparental Behavior and Pup–Adult Interactions in Companion Dogs [PDF]
, 2019 Socialization with humans is known to be a pivotal factor in the development of appropriate adult dog behavior, but the role and extent of dog–dog interactions in the first two months of life is rarely studied.

Comparative proteomic profiling of the ovine and human PBMC inflammatory response
Scientific ReportsUnderstanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of inflammation requires robust animal models. Sheep are commonly used in immune-related studies, yet the validity of sheep as animal models for immune and inflammatory diseases remains to be ...

Metastatic Cardiac Hemangiosarcoma in a 6 Year Old Wheaten Terrier Mix
Veterinary Sciences, 2019 A 6 year old Wheaten Terrier mix with a history of collapse and lethargy was referred for evaluation of pericardial effusion. The echocardiogram identified pericardial effusion and a right auricular mass.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Considerations for the Retirement of Therapy Animals [PDF]
, 2019 With the growth of animal-assisted interventions, the number of animals designated to work as therapy animals continues to increase. These animals participate in this work in varying capacities during life, but there will be a point in time when the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
