The role of primary cilia in the development and disease of the retina (2013)
Journal Article
Parry, D. A., Johnson, C. A., Wheway, G., Parry, D. A., & Johnson, C. A. (2014). The role of primary cilia in the development and disease of the retina. Organogenesis, 10(1), 69-85. https://doi.org/10.4161/org.26710

The normal development and function of photoreceptors is essential for eye health and visual acuity in vertebrates. Mutations in genes encoding proteins involved in photoreceptor development and function are associated with a suite of inherited retin...

Examining the intersections between child maltreatment and intimate partner violence (2013)
Journal Article
Guedes, A., & Mikton, C. (2013). Examining the intersections between child maltreatment and intimate partner violence. Western Journal of Emergency Medicine, 14(4), 377-379. https://doi.org/10.5811/westjem.2013.2.16249

Intimate partner violence (IPV) against women and child maltreatment (CM) have been traditionally addressed in isolation by researchers, policy makers and programs. In recent years, however, a growing body of research suggests that these types of vio... Read More about Examining the intersections between child maltreatment and intimate partner violence.

The evolution of selective analyses of HDL and LDL cholesterol in clinical and point of care testing (2013)
Journal Article
Killard, A. J., Ahmadraji, T., & Killard, A. (2013). The evolution of selective analyses of HDL and LDL cholesterol in clinical and point of care testing. Analytical Methods, 5(15), 3612-3625. https://doi.org/10.1039/c3ay40715b

Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death worldwide and is caused by the build up of atherosclerotic plaques in the vasculature. It is now well established that the formation of these plaques is closely related to levels of both high density...

The importance of methane breath testing: A review (2013)
Journal Article
Ratcliffe, N. M., De Lacy Costello, B. P., de Lacy Costello, B., Ledochowski, M., & Ratcliffe, N. M. (2013). The importance of methane breath testing: A review. Journal of Breath Research, 7(2), https://doi.org/10.1088/1752-7155/7/2/024001

Sugar malabsorption in the bowel can lead to bloating, cramps, diarrhea and other symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome as well as affecting absorption of other nutrients. The hydrogen breath test is now a well established noninvasive test for assessi... Read More about The importance of methane breath testing: A review.

The SYSCILIA gold standard (SCGSv1) of known ciliary components and its applications within a systems biology consortium (2013)
Journal Article
Giles, R. H., Slaats, G. G., Van Dam, T. J., Huynen, M. A., van Dam, T. J., Wheway, G., …Giles, R. H. (2013). The SYSCILIA gold standard (SCGSv1) of known ciliary components and its applications within a systems biology consortium. Cilia, 2(1), 7. https://doi.org/10.1186/2046-2530-2-7

The multinational SYSCILIA consortium aims to gain a mechanistic understanding of the cilium. We utilize multiple parallel high-throughput (HTP) initiatives to develop predictive models of relationships between complex genotypes and variable phenotyp...

Multiple myeloma: The bone marrow microenvironment and its relation to treatment (2013)
Journal Article
Andrews, S. W., Kabrah, S., May, J. E., Donaldson, C., & Morse, H. R. (2013). Multiple myeloma: The bone marrow microenvironment and its relation to treatment. British Journal of Biomedical Science, 70(3), 110-120. https://doi.org/10.1080/09674845.2013.11669945

Multiple myeloma is the most common haematological malignancy yet currently it remains incurable. For decades the mainstay in therapy has been non-targeted approaches including genotoxic agents and immunosuppressants. With myeloma predominantly affec...
