A case of bovine erythropoietic protoporphyria in a female Limousin calf (2024)
Journal Article
CAPUZZELLO, G., Kaczmarska, A., Gutierrez Quintana, R., Jonsson, N. N., & Viora, L. (2024). A case of bovine erythropoietic protoporphyria in a female Limousin calf. Large Animal Review, 30(5), 223-226

Bovine erythropoietic protoporphyria (BCEPP) is a rare genetic disorder predominantly affecting Limousin and, sporadically, Blonde Aquitaine cattle. It arises from diminished or absent ferrochelatase activity, causing the toxic build up of protoporph... Read More about A case of bovine erythropoietic protoporphyria in a female Limousin calf.

Geometric characteristics of stromal collagen fibres in breast cancer using differential interference contrast microscopy (2024)
Journal Article
Ghannam, S. F., Rutland, C. S., Allegrucci, C., Mather, M. L., Alsaleem, M., Bateman‐Price, T. D., Patke, R., Ball, G., Mongan, N. P., & Rakha, E. (2024). Geometric characteristics of stromal collagen fibres in breast cancer using differential interference contrast microscopy. Journal of Microscopy, https://doi.org/10.1111/jmi.13361

Breast cancer (BC) is characterised by a high level of heterogeneity, which is influenced by the interaction of neoplastic cells with the tumour microenvironment. The diagnostic and prognostic role of the tumour stroma in BC remains to be defined. Di...

The expanding role of cap-adjacent modifications in animals (2024)
Journal Article
Bellows, E., Fray, R. G., Knight, H. M., & Archer, N. (2024). The expanding role of cap-adjacent modifications in animals. Frontiers in RNA Research, 2, Article 1485307. https://doi.org/10.3389/frnar.2024.1485307

Eukaryotic mRNA cap structures directly influence mRNA stability, translation, and immune recognition. While the significance of the mRNA cap itself has been well-established, recent research has revealed the intricate modifications to the nucleotide...

Isolation of phage-antibodies against Eimeria species that infect chickens (2024)
Journal Article
Angani, M. T., Owen, J. P., Maddison, B. C., & Gough, K. C. (2024). Isolation of phage-antibodies against Eimeria species that infect chickens. Journal of Immunological Methods, 534, Article 113759. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jim.2024.113759

Eimeria is one of the most economically important pathogens in poultry production. Diagnosis of infection has the potential to inform treatment and prevention strategies. Here, phage display technology was used to isolate single chain antibodies (scF... Read More about Isolation of phage-antibodies against Eimeria species that infect chickens.

Core and accessory genomic traits of Vibrio cholerae O1 drive lineage transmission and disease severity (2024)
Journal Article
Maciel-Guerra, A., Babaarslan, K., Baker, M., Rahman, A., Hossain, M., Sadique, A., Alam, J., Uzzaman, S., Ferdous, M., Sarker, R., Sultana, N., Khan, A. I., Begum, Y.

Nature Communications, 15, Article 8231. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-52238-0

In Bangladesh, Vibrio cholerae lineages are undergoing genomic evolution, with increased virulence and spreading ability. However, our understanding of the genomic determinants influencing lineage transmission and disease severity remains incomplete....

Investigative power of Genomic Informational Field Theory (GIFT) relative to GWAS for genotype-phenotype mapping. (2024)
Journal Article
Kyratzi, P., Matika, O., Brassington, A. H., Clare, C. E., Xu, J., Barrett, D. A., Emes, R. D., Archibald, A. L., Paldi, A., Sinclair, K. D., Wattis, J., & Rauch, C. (in press). Investigative power of Genomic Informational Field Theory (GIFT) relative to GWAS for genotype-phenotype mapping. Physiological Genomics, https://doi.org/10.1152/physiolgenomics.00049.2024

Identifying associations between phenotype and genotype is the fundamental basis of genetic analyses. Inspired by frequentist probability and the work of R.A. Fisher, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) extract information using averages and varia...

High prevalence and risk factors of feline leukemia virus infection in Chilean urban cats (Felis catus). (2024)
Journal Article
Castillo-Aliaga, C., Castro-Seriche, S., Jerez-Morales, A., & Tarlinton, R. (2024). High prevalence and risk factors of feline leukemia virus infection in Chilean urban cats (Felis catus). Research in Veterinary Science, 180, Article 105403. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rvsc.2024.105403

Feline Leukemia Virus is a retrovirus causing fatal disease in domestic cats. While FeLV has been controlled in many countries, it remains a major concern in Latin American countries. This study conducted an epidemiological survey of FeLV in 182 Chil... Read More about High prevalence and risk factors of feline leukemia virus infection in Chilean urban cats (Felis catus)..

The Conflicting Prognostic Role of the Stroma–Tumor Ratio in Breast Cancer Molecular Subtypes (2024)
Journal Article
Ghannam, S. F., Makhlouf, S., Alsaleem, M., Rutland, C. S., Allegrucci, C., Mongan, N. P., & Rakha, E. (2024). The Conflicting Prognostic Role of the Stroma–Tumor Ratio in Breast Cancer Molecular Subtypes. Modern Pathology, 37(12), Article 100607. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.modpat.2024.100607

The tumor microenvironment plays a key role in tumor progression. The proportion of the stroma-to-tumor cells (stroma-tumor ratio [STR]) has a variable prognostic significance in breast cancer (BC) molecular classes. In this study, we evaluated the m...
