The potential value of cytokine, cortisol and vitamin D profiles in foals from birth to weaning for respiratory disease prediction on a farm endemic for Rhodococcus equi pneumonia

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Rhodococcus equi causes pneumonia in young foals, but disease susceptibility and severity vary. Cortisol and vitamin D modulate immune responses and cytokine production during bacterial infection, and altered concentrations are associated with sepsis in neonatal foals. We hypothesised an age and disease effect on circulating steroid

Exploring the Role of Kisspeptin in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Its Associated Pregnancy Complications

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder with a complex pathogenesis that includes disordered follicle development, hypothalamic–pituitary–ovarian (HPO) axis dysfunction, hyperandrogenemia, and insulin resistance. The risk of complications during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and preeclampsia (PE)

Disintegrin‐Like and Metalloprotease With Thrombospondin Type 1 Repeat Motifs 13 (ADAMTS13) Activity in 40 Healthy Dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In humans, deficiency of a disintegrin‐like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motifs, number 13 (ADAMTS13), a von Willebrand factor (vWF) cleaving protease, is an underlying mechanism for thrombosis. The role of ADAMTS13 in canine thromboembolic disease is largely unknown.

The contribution of age and sex hormones to female neuromuscular function across the adult lifespan

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study mapped the age‐related trajectory of neuromuscular deterioration in 88 healthy females aged 18–80 years old. An accelerated reduction in neuromuscular function, primarily of peripheral muscular origin, coincided with the age of menopause onset.

Acid‐sensing ion channel 1a deficiency drives endocrine hypertension in male mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Acid‐sensing ion channel 1a deficiency drives endocrine hypertension in aged male mice. Global deletion of ASIC1a (Asic1a−/−) in adult male mice (6 months old) elevates corticosterone, leading to hypokalaemia, volume expansion, increased pulse pressure and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.
