DOI: 10.1016/j.cimid.2021.101641
Abstract: Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae is a respiratory pathogen that impacts domestic sheep (Ovis aries; DS) and bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis; BHS). BHS are reported to be more susceptible than DS to developing polymicrobial pneumonia associated with M.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jaridenv.2018.04.009
Abstract: Abstract Although corridors have been the subject of extensive research in the recent years, the probable correlation between structural and functional corridors have not been addressed to date. To fill this scientific gap, we compared… read more here.

Increased plasma melatonin in presymptomatic Huntington disease sheep (Ovis aries): Compensatory neuroprotection in a neurodegenerative disease?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of Pineal Research"
DOI: 10.1111/jpi.12624
Abstract: Melatonin is a pleiotrophic hormone, synthesised primarily by the pineal gland under the control of the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN). It not only provides a hormonal signal of darkness but also has neuroprotective properties. Huntington's disease… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjm-2021-0338
Abstract: Anaerobic cellulolytic microbes in gastrointestinal tract (GT) of ruminants have been well-documented, however, knowledge of aerobic microbes with cellulolytic activities in ruminant GT is comparably limited. Here, we unraveled aerobic cultivable cellulolytic microbes in GT… read more here.

DOI: 10.1638/2022-0019
Abstract: Abstract: Chemical immobilization of wildlife, required for many biological studies and management events, often induces hypoxemia and respiratory depression. Laryngeal mask airways (LMAs) have shown promise as an efficient method of airway protection during anesthesia.… read more here.
