Keeping an open mind: highlights and controversies of the breast cancer stem cell theory (2012)
Journal Article
Shah, M., & Allegrucci, C. (2012). Keeping an open mind: highlights and controversies of the breast cancer stem cell theory. Breast Cancer: Targets and Therapy, 2012(4), https://doi.org/10.2147/BCTT.S26434

The discovery that breast cancers contain stem-like cells has fuelled exciting research in the last few years. These cells are referred to as breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) and are thought to be involved in tumor initiation, progression, and metast...

The challenge of Schmallenberg virus emergence in Europe (2012)
Journal Article
Tarlinton, R., Daly, J. M., Dunham, S. P., & Kydd, J. M. (2012). The challenge of Schmallenberg virus emergence in Europe. Veterinary Journal, 194(1), 10-18. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2012.08.017

The large-scale outbreak of disease across Northern Europe caused by a new orthobunyavirus known as
Schmallenberg virus has caused considerable disruption to lambing and calving. Although advances in
technology and collaboration between veterinary... Read More about The challenge of Schmallenberg virus emergence in Europe.

Reliability of quantitative echocardiography in adult sheep and goats (2012)
Journal Article
Hallowell, G. D., Potter, T. J., & Bowen, I. M. (2012). Reliability of quantitative echocardiography in adult sheep and goats. BMC Veterinary Research, 8(Septem), Article 11. https://doi.org/10.1186/1746-6148-8-181

Background
Echocardiography is a non-invasive method for assessment of the ovine and caprine heart. Complete reference ranges for cardiac dimensions and time indices for both species are not currently available and reliability of these measurements...

Regulation of Anopheles gambiae male accessory gland genes influences postmating response in female (2012)
Journal Article
Dottorini, T., Persampieri, T., Palladino, P., Baker, D. A., Spaccapelo, R., Senin, N., & Crisanti, A. (2013). Regulation of Anopheles gambiae male accessory gland genes influences postmating response in female. FASEB Journal, 27(1), 86-97. https://doi.org/10.1096/fj.12-219444

In Drosophila, the accessory gland proteins (Acps) secreted from the male accessory glands (MAGs) and transferred along with sperm into the female reproductive tract have been implicated in triggering postmating behavioral changes, including refracto...

Oxygen concentration modulates the differentiation of muscle stem cells toward myogenic and adipogenic fates (2012)
Journal Article
Redshaw, Z., & Loughna, P. T. (2012). Oxygen concentration modulates the differentiation of muscle stem cells toward myogenic and adipogenic fates. Differentiation, 84(2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.diff.2012.06.001

The physiological oxygen concentration of many tissues is far lower than that in which cells are typically cultured in vitro and this may inadvertently influence the proliferation and differentiation potential of many cell types. Muscle derived stem... Read More about Oxygen concentration modulates the differentiation of muscle stem cells toward myogenic and adipogenic fates.
