The health of cloned animals generated by somatic-cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) has been of concern since its inception; however, there are no detailed assessments of late-onset, non-communicable diseases. Here we report that SCNT has no obvious detri... Read More about Healthy ageing of cloned sheep.

Epigenetics and developmental programming of welfare and production traits in farm animals (2016)
Journal Article

The concept that postnatal health and development can be influenced by events that occur in utero originated from epidemiological studies in humans supported by numerous mechanistic (including epigenetic) studies in a variety of model species. Referr... Read More about Epigenetics and developmental programming of welfare and production traits in farm animals.

Remote effects of acute kidney injury in a porcine model (2016)
Journal Article
Devonald, M. A., O’Sullivan, S. E., Gardner, D. S., De Brot, S., Dunford, L. J., Grau-Roma, L., …Devonald, M. A. J. (2016). Remote effects of acute kidney injury in a porcine model. AJP - Renal Physiology, 310(4), F259-F271. https://doi.org/10.1152/ajprenal.00389.2015

© 2016 the American Physiological Society. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious condition with no specific treatment. An episode of AKI may affect organs distant from the kidney, further increasing the morbidity associated with AKI. The... Read More about Remote effects of acute kidney injury in a porcine model.
