Journal Article
Lewis, J. E., Samms, R. J., Cooper, S., Luckett, J. C., Perkins, A. C., Dunbar, J. D., …Tsintzas, K. (2017). Antibody mediated targeting of the FGFR1c isoform increases glucose uptake in white and brown adipose tissue in male mice. Endocrinology, 158(10), 3090–3096. https://doi.org/10.1210/en.2017-00591

The increased prevalence of obesity and its cardiometabolic implications demonstrates the imperative to identify novel therapeutic targets able to effect meaningful metabolic changes in this population. Antibody-mediated targeting of fibroblast growt... Read More about Antibody mediated targeting of the FGFR1c isoform increases glucose uptake in white and brown adipose tissue in male mice.

Reduced adiposity attenuates FGF21 mediated metabolic improvements in the Siberian hamster (2017)
Journal Article
Lewis, J. E., Samms, R. J., Cooper, S., Luckett, J. C., Perkins, A. C., Adams, A. C., …Ebling, F. J. (in press). Reduced adiposity attenuates FGF21 mediated metabolic improvements in the Siberian hamster. Scientific Reports, 7(1), Article 4238. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-03607-x

FGF21 exerts profound metabolic effects in Siberian hamsters exposed to long day (LD) photoperiods that increase appetite and adiposity, however these effects are attenuated in short day (SD) animals that display hypophagia and reduced adiposity. The... Read More about Reduced adiposity attenuates FGF21 mediated metabolic improvements in the Siberian hamster.

Combinatorial discovery of polymers resistant to bacterial attachment (2012)
Journal Article
Hook, A. L., Chang, C., Yang, J., Luckett, J., Cockayne, A., Atkinson, S., …Alexander, M. R. (2012). Combinatorial discovery of polymers resistant to bacterial attachment. Nature Biotechnology, 30(9), 868-875. https://doi.org/10.1038/nbt.2316

Bacterial attachment and subsequent biofilm formation pose key challenges to the optimal performance of medical devices. In this study, we determined the attachment of selected bacterial species to hundreds of polymeric materials in a high-throughput...
