Characterization of inflammatory pseudotumors in a large animal model of liver cancer

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
CT images in arterial and portal venous phases of liver lesions in Oncopig. Abstract Background The development of relevant and robust large animal models of hepatocellular carcinoma is needed to test new therapeutic strategies for this disease. Transgenic approaches hold promise in addressing this complex problem. One such model, the Oncopig, has been

Multimorbidity and animal models

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Multimorbidity, defined as the coexistence of ≥2 chronic conditions, is associated with aging, genetics, and environmental factors. Animal models in multimorbidity research span three tiers: simple organisms for initial screening → rodents for mechanistic analysis → large mammals for clinical prediction.

Morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve: New insights for comparative studies in mammals

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.
