Multiplex analysis of cytokines in the cerebrospinal fluid of dogs after ischemic stroke reveals elevations in chemokines CXCL1 and MCP-1 Open
Introduction Neuroinflammation that occurs in the brain after stroke has been shown to be important to disease pathogenesis and outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate a large number of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in dogs …

Immunogenicity and protective efficacy of a pan-fungal vaccine in preclinical models of aspergillosis, candidiasis, and pneumocystosis Open
Invasive fungal infections cause over 1.5 million deaths worldwide. Despite increases in fungal infections as well as the numbers of individuals at risk, there are no clinically approved fungal vaccines. We produced a “pan-fungal” peptide,…

Differential T-cell responses in dogs with meningoencephalomyelitis of unknown origin compared to healthy controls Open
Meningoencephalomyelitis of unknown origin (MUO) is a common disorder in dogs that results in mononuclear inflammation in the brain and/or spinal cord. MUO is presumed to be autoimmune but specific immunological aberrations have not been i…

Platelet number and function in response to a single intravenous dose of vincristine Open
Background Vincristine might increase circulating platelet numbers but the functional capacity of these newly released platelets is unknown. Objective To evaluate and compare the functionality of mature and immature (reticulated) platelets…

Solar-driven water-splitting provides a solution to the energy problem underpinning climate change Open
The emergence of the oxygen-evolving photosystem two complex over 2.6 billion years ago represented the ‘big bang of evolution’ on planet Earth. It allowed phototrophic organisms to use sun light as an energy source to extract electrons an…

Intrastriatal injection of preformed alpha-synuclein fibrils alters central and peripheral immune cell profiles in non-transgenic mice Open
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the accumulation of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) inclusions, the major component of Lewy bodies. Extracellular α-syn aggregates act as a damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) and the presence of…

Sheep breed and shearing influences attraction and blood-feeding behaviour of Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) on a UK farm Open
Both breed and shearing were shown to influence Culicoides biting rate on sheep. These data are useful in a direct context in understanding the likely impact of control measures against arboviruses including BTV and SBV and additionally in…
View article: Synergistic Effect of Porosity and Gradient Doping in Efficient Solar Water Oxidation of Catalyst-Free Gradient Mo:BiVO<sub>4</sub>
Synergistic Effect of Porosity and Gradient Doping in Efficient Solar Water Oxidation of Catalyst-Free Gradient Mo:BiVO<sub>4</sub> Open
In this paper, the synergistic effect of porosity and gradient of Mo doping in BiVO4 photoanodes for improving charge separation and solar water oxidation performance is reported. A simple solution-based, three-step fabrication route was a…
