Survival and Function of Transplanted Islet Cells on an in Vivo, Vascularized Tissue Engineering Platform in the Rat: A Pilot Study 1.

Cell transplantation

Brown DL, Meagher PJ, Knight KR, Keramidaris E, Romeo-Meeuw R, Penington AJ, Morrison WA.
PMID: 28863745
Cell Transplant. 2006 Apr;15(4):319-324. doi: 10.3727/000000006783981909.

As in vivo tissue engineering of complex tissues and organs progresses, there is a need for an independently vascularized, alterable, and recoverable model. Current models of islet cell transplantation (release into the portal venous system, placement under the renal...

How to Synthesise High Purity, Crystalline d-Glucaric Acid Selectively.

European journal of organic chemistry

Armstrong RD, Kariuki BM, Knight DW, Hutchings GJ.
PMID: 29576740
European J Org Chem. 2017 Dec 08;2017(45):6811-6814. doi: 10.1002/ejoc.201701343. Epub 2017 Dec 06.

Glucaric acid has potential applications in food, pharmaceutical and polymer industries yet no methodology exists within the public domain for isolation of this key bio-derived platform molecule as a pure, crystalline solid. Here we demonstrate the difficulties, which arise...

KatharoSeq Enables High-Throughput Microbiome Analysis from Low-Biomass Samples.

mSystems

Minich JJ, Zhu Q, Janssen S, Hendrickson R, Amir A, Vetter R, Hyde J, Doty MM, Stillwell K, Benardini J, Kim JH, Allen EE, Venkateswaran K, Knight R.
PMID: 29577086
mSystems. 2018 Mar 13;3(3). doi: 10.1128/mSystems.00218-17. eCollection 2018.

Microbiome analyses of low-biomass samples are challenging because of contamination and inefficiencies, leading many investigators to employ low-throughput methods with minimal controls. We developed a new automated protocol, KatharoSeq (from the Greek katharos [clean]), that outperforms single-tube extractions while...

Stability of operational taxonomic units: an important but neglected property for analyzing microbial diversity.

Microbiome

He Y, Caporaso JG, Jiang XT, Sheng HF, Huse SM, Rideout JR, Edgar RC, Kopylova E, Walters WA, Knight R, Zhou HW.
PMID: 25995836
Microbiome. 2015 May 20;3:20. doi: 10.1186/s40168-015-0081-x. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: The operational taxonomic unit (OTU) is widely used in microbial ecology. Reproducibility in microbial ecology research depends on the reliability of OTU-based 16S ribosomal subunit RNA (rRNA) analyses.RESULTS: Here, we report that many hierarchical and greedy clustering methods...

Vertebrate Hosts as Islands: Dynamics of Selection, Immigration, Loss, Persistence, and Potential Function of Bacteria on Salamander Skin.

Frontiers in microbiology

Loudon AH, Venkataraman A, Van Treuren W, Woodhams DC, Parfrey LW, McKenzie VJ, Knight R, Schmidt TM, Harris RN.
PMID: 27014249
Front Microbiol. 2016 Mar 16;7:333. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2016.00333. eCollection 2016.

Skin bacterial communities can protect amphibians from a fungal pathogen; however, little is known about how these communities are maintained. We used a neutral model of community ecology to identify bacteria that are maintained on salamanders by selection or...

Diagnosis and assessment of dilated cardiomyopathy: a guideline protocol from the British Society of Echocardiography.

Extramammary Paget disease of the perianal region: the potential role of imiquimod in achieving disease control.

Journal of surgical case reports

Knight SR, Proby C, Ziyaie D, Carey F, Koch S.

PMID: 26379543
Front Aging Neurosci. 2015 Aug 25;7:161. doi: 10.3389/fnagi.2015.00161. eCollection 2015.

Skeletal muscle regeneration in vertebrates occurs by the activation of quiescent progenitor cells that express pax7 to repair and replace damaged myofibers. We have developed a mechanical injury paradigm in zebrafish to determine whether developmental stage and injury size...
