Anticancer Activity of Pyrimethamine via Ubiquitin Mediated Degradation of AIMP2-DX2
While aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase-interacting multifunctional protein 2 (AIMP2) is a tumor suppressor, its exon 2-depleted splice variant (AIMP2-DX2 or shortly DX2) is highly expressed in human lung cancer, and the ratio of DX2 to AIMP2 increases according

Successful Management of Presumed Reactivation of Neospora caninum Following Immunosuppression for Immune Thrombocytopenia in an Adult Doberman. [PDF]
Positive serology titres for Neospora caninum in the absence of appropriate clinical signs is not diagnostic for protozoal disease. Acute deterioration while immunosuppressed should raise concerns over reactivation of encysted protozoa, particularly in dogs with a history of raw feeding. Successful management of N. caninum appears possible but requires
