NK Cells: Uncertain Allies against Malaria.

Frontiers in immunology

Wolf AS, Sherratt S, Riley EM.
PMID: 28337195
Front Immunol. 2017 Mar 09;8:212. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.00212. eCollection 2017.

Until recently, studies of natural killer (NK) cells in infection have focused almost entirely on their role in viral infections. However, there is an increasing awareness of the potential for NK cells to contribute to the control of a...

An Outbreak of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Infection Linked to a "Black Friday" Piercing Event.

PLoS currents

MacPherson P, Valentine K, Chadderton V, Dardamissis E, Doig I, Fox A, Ghebrehewet S, Hampton T, Mutton K, Sherratt C, McCann CM.
PMID: 29188131

INTRODUCTION: Outbreaks linked to cosmetic piercing are rare, but can cause significant illness. We report the investigation and management of a point-source outbreak that occurred during a Black Friday promotional event in North West England.METHODS: Outbreak investigation was led...

Age and verbal fluency: the mediating effect of speed of processing.

Canadian geriatrics journal : CGJ

Elgamal SA, Roy EA, Sharratt MT.
PMID: 23251316
Can Geriatr J. 2011 Sep;14(3):66-72. doi: 10.5770/cgj.v14i3.17. Epub 2011 Nov 11.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cognitive decline is a function of normal aging; however, the effect of age on various domains is differential. This study examined the effect of age on verbal fluency and showed how speed of processing modifies fluency...

Anisotropic Quantum Well Electro-Optics in Few-Layer Black Phosphorus.

Nano letters

Sherrott MC, Whitney WS, Jariwala D, Biswas S, Went CM, Wong J, Rossman GR, Atwater HA.
PMID: 30525692
Nano Lett. 2019 Jan 09;19(1):269-276. doi: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.8b03876. Epub 2018 Dec 12.

The incorporation of electrically tunable materials into photonic structures such as waveguides and metasurfaces enables dynamic, electrical control of light propagation at the nanoscale. Few-layer black phosphorus is a promising material for these applications due to its in-plane anisotropic,...

Matrix-Bound Growth Factors are Released upon Cartilage Compression by an Aggrecan-Dependent Sodium Flux that is Lost in Osteoarthritis.

Function (Oxford, England)

Keppie SJ, Mansfield JC, Tang X, Philp CJ, Graham HK, Önnerfjord P, Wall A, McLean C, Winlove CP, Sherratt MJ, Pavlovskaya GE, Vincent TL.
PMID: 34423304
Function (Oxf). 2021 Aug 02;2(5):zqab037. doi: 10.1093/function/zqab037. eCollection 2021.

Articular cartilage is a dense extracellular matrix-rich tissue that degrades following chronic mechanical stress, resulting in osteoarthritis (OA). The tissue has low intrinsic repair especially in aged and osteoarthritic joints. Here, we describe three pro-regenerative factors; fibroblast growth factor...

Comparative assessment of methods for short-term forecasts of COVID-19 admissions in England at the local level.

medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences

Meakin S, Abbott S, Bosse N, Munday J, Gruson H, Hellewell J, Sherratt K, Funk S.
PMID: 34704097
medRxiv. 2022 Jan 06; doi: 10.1101/2021.10.18.21265046.

BACKGROUND: Forecasting healthcare demand is essential in epidemic settings, both to inform situational awareness and facilitate resource planning. Ideally, forecasts should be robust across time and locations. During the COVID-19 pandemic in England, it is an ongoing concern that...

Regional variations in discrete collagen fibre mechanics within intact intervertebral disc resolved using synchrotron computed tomography and digital volume correlation.

Acta biomaterialia

Disney CM, Mo J, Eckersley A, Bodey AJ, Hoyland JA, Sherratt MJ, Pitsillides AA, Lee PD, Bay BK.
PMID: 34644611
Acta Biomater. 2021 Oct 10; doi: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.10.012. Epub 2021 Oct 10.

Many soft tissues, such as the intervertebral disc (IVD), have a hierarchical fibrous composite structure which suffers from regional damage. We hypothesise that these tissue regions have distinct, inherent fibre structure and structural response upon loading. Here we used...

Stakeholder Views on the Idea of Medicines Reuse in the UK.

Pharmacy (Basel, Switzerland)

Donyai P, McCrindle R, Hui TKL, Sherratt RS.
PMID: 33923745
Pharmacy (Basel). 2021 Apr 16;9(2). doi: 10.3390/pharmacy9020085.

People's views about medicines reuse are being examined in a handful of qualitative studies and this commentary adds to that work by drawing on our own discussions with groups of stakeholders in the UK in the past two years....

Profiling Kinase Activity during Hepatitis C Virus Replication Using a Wortmannin Probe.

ACS infectious diseases

Desrochers GF, Sherratt AR, Blais DR, Nasheri N, Ning Z, Figeys D, Goto NK, Pezacki JP.
