EASTBIO-Investigating the role of senescence in ageing and cardio-renal disease in dogs
Research Group:
Centre for Inflammation Research
Cells can become old or ‘senescent’ with age and disease. These senescent ‘zombie’ cells are long-lived, metabolically active and release chemicals that drive inflammation and scarring as well as limiting tissue healing. Read more
Determination of the non-coding RNAs in the knee joint tissues of dogs at differing risk to cranial cruciate ligament rupture.
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
Background. The cranial cruciate ligment (CCL) is the most frequently damaged ligament of the canine knee joint following injuries and age-related ligament breakdown, leading to the development of osteoarthritis (OA). Read more
GENOMICS: Gene Expression in Oral Melanoma for Integrated Cross-Species Stratification
Oronasal mucosal melanoma (OMM) is a highly aggressive cancer with poor survival outcomes, affecting both humans and dogs. Median survival is ~1 year in dogs and only ~15% of human patients survive 5 years. Read more
Disease transmission, mitigation and management scenarios in Afroalpine carnivores
Canid diseases are a particular and growing concern for the conservation of many wildlife populations, as free-ranging domestic dogs act increasingly as vectors of rabies and canine distemper viruses. Read more
