Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

Laser neoureterocystostomy to treat ectopic ureters

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ureteral ectopia is an uncommon but clinically important congenital abnormality in horses. If left untreated, it can lead to persistent dermatitis, urinary tract infections, and failure to thrive. Surgical correction is necessary, but traditional approaches have produced mixed results with high morbidity.

Exploring the impact of age, and body condition score on erythrocytic B1-Dependent transketolase activity in cats: A comprehensive analysis of thiamine status

open access: yesHeliyon
One of the key factors influencing aging and morbidity is the overall antioxidant status and regenerative capacity. In examining contributors to the antioxidant status, we analyzed the thiamine status in felines and the influence of age, gender, and body

Pancreatic α‐cell dysfunction associated with equine insulin dysregulation

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Insulin dysregulation (ID) in horses is characterised by insulin resistance and exaggerated insulin responses, yet the underlying endocrine mechanisms remain incompletely understood. In humans, α‐cell dysfunction characterised by exaggerated glucagon secretion contributes to metabolic disease; however, the role of pancreatic α‐cell ...
