Wound healing of experimental equine skin wounds and concurrent microbiota in wound dressings following topical propylene glycol gel treatment Open
Introduction Topical wound treatments rely on carrier formulations with little to no biological impact. The potential for a common vehicle, a propylene glycol (PG) gel, to affect wound healing measures including microbiota is not known. Mi…

Supplementation of Nucleotides to Enhance Performance and Immune Responses of Asian Seabass Open
Supplementation of nucleotides into fish diets can be an alternative method to manage disease problems in aquaculture, since it was reported could improve the growth rate and immunity of some aquaculture species. The present study assessed…

ERBB3: A potential serum biomarker for early detection and therapeutic target for devil facial tumour 1 (DFT1) Open
Devil Facial Tumour 1 (DFT1) is one of two transmissible neoplasms of Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus harrisii) predominantly affecting their facial regions. DFT1's cellular origin is that of Schwann cell lineage where lesions are evident ma…

Devil Facial Tumor Disease, A Potential Model of the Cancer Stem-Cell Process? Open
Tasmanian devil facial tumor disease ( DFTD ) is a naturally occurring contagious cancer which is transmitted as a clonal cell line between devils. The malignant cell line evolved from a Schwann cell or precursor prior to 1996 and since th…
