Although mouse models of DMD provide insight into the potential of a corrective therapy, data from genetically homologous large animals, such as the dystrophin-deficient golden retriever muscular dystrophy (GRMD) model, may more readily translate to humans. To evaluate the clinical translatability of an adeno-associated virus serotype 9 vector (AAV9)–microdystrophin (μDys5) construct, we performed a blinded, placebo-controlled study in which 12 GRMD dogs were divided among four dose groups [control, 1 × 1013 vector genomes per kilogram (vg/kg), 1 × 1014 vg/kg, and 2 × 1014 vg/kg; n = 3 each], treated intravenously at 3 months of age with a canine codon-optimized microdystrophin construct, rAAV9-CK8e-c-μDys5, and followed for 90 days after dosing. All dogs received prednisone (1 milligram/kilogram) for a total of 5 weeks from day −7 through day 28. We observed dose-dependent increases in tissue vector genome copy numbers; μDys5 protein in multiple appendicular muscles, the diaphragm, and heart; limb and respiratory muscle functional improvement; and reduction of histopathologic lesions. As expected, given that a truncated dystrophin protein was generated, phenotypic test results and histopathologic lesions did not fully normalize. All administrations were well tolerated, and adverse events were not seen. These data suggest that systemically administered AAV-microdystrophin may be dosed safely and could provide therapeutic benefit for patients with DMD. Description AAV9-microdystrophin gene therapy results in molecular, histopathologic, and functional benefits in a canine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Microdystrophin for dystrophic dogs Gene therapy is a potential treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), but the large size of the DMD gene limits delivery. Microdystrophin transgenes are shortened but still contain the elements necessary for protein function and are small enough to fit within a typical adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector. Here, Birch and colleagues conducted a blinded, placebo-controlled 90-day study of systemic administration of an AAV9 vector carrying a canine microdystrophin-5 transgene in golden retrievers with muscular dystrophy, a large animal model of DMD. The gene therapy led to dose-dependent increases in microdystrophin-5 protein in muscles, including the heart and diaphragm. Functional changes, including less impairment of respiratory muscles, were noted by the end of the study, highlighting the translational potential of this approach. —MN}, number={677}, journal={SCIENCE TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE}, author={Birch, Sharla M. and Lawlor, Michael W. and Conlon, Thomas J. and Guo, Lee-Jae and Crudele, Julie M. and Hawkins, Eleanor C. and Nghiem, Peter P. and Ahn, Mihye and Meng, Hui and Beatka, Margaret J. and et al.}, year={2023}, month={Jan} } @article{gregory_livingston_hawkins_loyola_cave_vaden_deresienski_breen_riofrio-lazo_lewbart_et al._2023, title={Dirofilaria immitis Identified in Galapagos Sea Lions (Zalophus wollebaeki): A Wildlife Health and Conservation Concern}, volume={59}, ISSN={["1943-3700"]}, DOI={10.7589/JWD-D-22-00119}, abstractNote={Abstract: The Galapagos sea lion (Zalophus wollebaeki), an endemic and endangered pinniped, faces an increasing threat due to infectious diseases related to domestic animals. Dirofilaria immitis, the parasite responsible for canine heartworm disease, is one such threat, as canine infections on the archipelago have been documented. We used a canine heartworm antigen test kit to analyze the blood from 25 juvenile Galapagos sea lions for D. immitis. Two (8%) sea lions tested positive for D. immitis antigen. Using morphologic and genetic assessments, we evaluated 20 filarial-like worms collected from within the heart of an adult male Galapagos sea lion during a previous routine postmortem examination. The intracardiac worms were morphologically consistent with adult D. immitis, and sequence analysis of targeted PCR amplicons confirmed their identity. This is the first report of D. immitis infection in Galapagos sea lions, which could become a major health problem for these pinnipeds. Further studies are necessary to confirm the level of threat from this parasite; however, widespread adoption of routine heartworm testing, prevention, and treatment in the canine population, and the control of mosquitos, could potentially reduce the disease impact on this endangered pinniped species.}, number={3}, journal={JOURNAL OF WILDLIFE DISEASES}, author={Gregory, Taylor M. and Livingston, Isabella and Hawkins, Eleanor C. and Loyola, Andrea and Cave, Ashley and Vaden, Shelly L. and Deresienski, Diane and Breen, Matthew and Riofrio-Lazo, Marjorie and Lewbart, Gregory A. and et al.}, year={2023}, month={Jul}, pages={487–494} } @article{mccool_marks_hawkins_2021, title={Endoscopy Training in Small Animal Internal Medicine: A Survey of Residency Training Programs in North America}, volume={6}, ISSN={["1943-7218"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.3138/jvme-2020-0165}, DOI={10.3138/jvme-2020-0165}, abstractNote={Competency in multiple endoscopic techniques is a major goal of small animal internal medicine (SAIM) residency programs.

Fifteen programs provided residents with the opportunity to attend external endoscopy workshops. Only three programs required any training prior to residents performing procedures on patients. There was considerable variability in training between programs, precluding statistical comparisons. The survey identified topics for classroom sessions and several inexpensive physical models, rated very or extremely helpful, that would be suitable for programs with limited budgets.

Objective To compare cytology and culture of endotracheal and transtracheal washes and identify factors associated with discordancy and bacterial growth. Animals Two hundred forty‐five dogs with respiratory disease. Methods Retrospective study. Tracheal wash submissions were included if cellularity was sufficient for cytologic interpretation and aerobic cultures were performed. Collection technique, cytology, bacterial growth, and antibiotic history were analyzed. Results Fewer transtracheal specimens (9/144, 6.3%) were excluded for hypocellularity than endotracheal (28/174, 16.1%); otherwise, results were similar and were combined. Of 281 specimens with cellularity sufficient for interpretation, 97 (34.5%) had bacteria on cytology and 191 (68.0%) had bacterial growth. Cytology positive/culture negative discordancy was uncommon (8/97, 8%). Cytology negative/culture positive discordancy was frequent (102/184, 55.4%), but occurred less often (28/184, 14.2%) when only 1+ growth or greater was considered positive. Oropharyngeal contamination was associated with bacterial growth, but not discordancy. No association was found between antibiotic administration and bacterial growth. Conclusions and Clinical Importance Endotracheal wash fluid, in particular, should be screened for gross mucus or turbidity to maximize the likelihood of an adequate specimen. Otherwise, endotracheal and transtracheal specimens were similar. Presence of bacteria on cytology was a good predictor of any growth, while their absence was a good predictor of the absence of growth of 1+ or more.

We have previously shown that adult GRMD dogs have elevated expiratory flow as measured non-invasively during tidal breathing. This abnormality likely results from increased chest and diaphragmatic recoil associated with fibrosis and remodeling. Treatments must reverse pathologic effects on the diaphragm and other respiratory muscles to maximally reduce disease morbidity and mortality. Here, we extended our work in adults to younger GRMD dogs to define parameters that would be helpful in preclinical trials. Tidal breathing spirometry and respiratory inductance plethysmography were performed in GRMD dogs at approximately 3 and 6 months of age, corresponding to approximately 5–10 years in DMD, when clinical trials are often conducted. Expiratory flows were markedly elevated in GRMD versus normal dogs at 6 months. Values increased in GRMD dogs between 3 and 6 months, providing a 3-month window to assess treatment efficacy. These changes in breathing mechanics have not been previously identified at such an early age. Expiratory flow measured during tidal breathing of unsedated young GRMD dogs could be a valuable marker of respiratory mechanics during preclinical trials.}, number={11}, journal={NEUROMUSCULAR DISORDERS}, author={Hawkins, Eleanor C. and Bettis, Amanda K. and Kornegay, Joe N.}, year={2020}, month={Nov}, pages={930–937} } @article{mccool_bissett_hill_degernes_hawkins_2019, title={Evaluation of a Human Virtual-Reality Endoscopy Trainer for Teaching Early Endoscopy Skills to Veterinarians}, volume={47}, ISSN={0748-321X 1943-7218}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.3138/jvme.0418-037r}, DOI={10.3138/jvme.0418-037r}, abstractNote={Competency in flexible endoscopy is a major goal of small animal internal medicine residency training programs.

However, there are currently no commercially available veterinary endoscopy simulators. The purpose of the study was to determine whether a human VRET can be a reasonable alternative to a LDL for teaching early veterinary endoscopy skills. Twelve veterinarians with limited or no endoscopy experience underwent training with a VRET (n = 6) or a LDL (n = 6), performed two recorded esophagogastroduodenoscopies (EGD) on anesthetized dogs for evaluation purposes (outcomes laboratory), and then underwent training with the alternative method.

Animals Twenty‐two dogs with histopathologically confirmed chronic rhinitis and 72 healthy dogs. Methods In this prospective study, an online questionnaire was created based on literature review and feedback from veterinarians, veterinary internists with respiratory expertise, and owners of dogs with rhinitis. Owners of affected dogs completed the questionnaire twice, 1 week apart, to test reliability. Healthy dogs were assessed once. Data were analyzed using the Rasch Rating Scale Model, and results were interpreted using Messick's framework for evaluating construct validity evidence.

MARCKS also plays a key role in regulating the adhesion, migration, and degranulation of neutrophils. Moreover, given its biological role in epithelial and immune cells, we hypothesized that MARCKS may play an integral role in cytokine secretion by neutrophils. Because the amino terminus of MARCKS is highly conserved across vertebrate species, we successfully applied the well-characterized human MARCKS inhibitory peptide, myristoylated N-terminal sequence (MANS), to attenuate the function of MARCKS in isolated canine neutrophils. Pretreatment of canine neutrophils with MANS peptide significantly reduced both mRNA and protein expression in a broad range of LPS-induced cytokines, including IL-8, a chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand-1 orthologue, and TNF-α, in comparison with untreated cells or those treated with a control peptide. This reduction in cytokine expression was observed even when neutrophils were treated with MANS 2 hours after LPS exposure. The observed reduction in cytokine secretion was not attributable to protein retention or cell death, but was associated with reduced cytokine transcript synthesis. These observations identify MARCKS protein as a promising therapeutic target in the treatment of inflammatory diseases or syndromes attributed to neutrophil influx and inflammatory cytokine production, such as sepsis, acute lung injury, and acute respiratory distress syndrome.}, number={3}, journal={American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology}, publisher={American Thoracic Society}, author={Li, Jingjing and D’Annibale-Tolhurst, Melissa A. and Adler, Kenneth B. and Fang, Shijing and Yin, Qui and Birkenheuer, Adam J. and Levy, Michael G. and Jones, Samuel L. and Sung, Eui Jae and Hawkins, Eleanor C. and et al.}, year={2013}, month={Mar}, pages={314–321} } @article{nafe_robertson_hawkins_2013, title={Cervical lung lobe herniation in dogs identified by fluoroscopy}, volume={54}, number={10}, journal={Canadian Veterinary Journal}, author={Nafe, L.A. and Robertson, I.D. and Hawkins, E.C.}, year={2013}, month={Oct}, pages={955–959} } @article{cervical lung lobe herniation in dogs identified by fluoroscopy._2013, url={https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/pmid/24155415/?tool=EBI}, journal={The Canadian veterinary journal = La revue veterinaire canadienne}, year={2013}, month={Oct} } @article{reeder_hawkins_cora_marks_grindem_2013, title={Effect of a Combined Aspiration and Core Biopsy Technique on Quality of Core Bone Marrow Specimens}, volume={49}, ISSN={["0587-2871"]}, DOI={10.5326/jaaha-ms-5822}, abstractNote={For cases requiring both a bone marrow aspirate and core biopsy, using the same needle and site (i.e., a combined technique) can decrease time, expense, and discomfort compared with the independent (direct) collection of each specimen.

METHODS Owners completed written questionnaires. Demographic information and diagnoses were obtained from medical records. Demographic and historical data were compared between coughing and control dogs. Demographic data and exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) also were compared with hospital accessions and adult smoking rates, respectively. Characteristics of cough were compared among diagnoses. RESULTS Most coughing dogs had a diagnosis of large airway disease (n=88; 77%). Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) was diagnosed in 59 dogs (51%), including 79% of toy breed dogs. Demographic risk factors included older age, smaller body weight, and being toy breed (P<.001).

Since domestic dogs are known to develop medical conditions associated with atypical CF in humans (e.g., bronchiectasis and pancreatitis), we hypothesized that dogs with these disorders likely have a higher expression rate of CFTR mutations than the at-large population. Temporal temperature-gradient gel electrophoresis (TTGE) was used to screen canine CFTR in 400 animals: 203 dogs diagnosed with pancreatitis, 23 dogs diagnosed with bronchiectasis, and 174 dogs admitted to clinics for any illness (at-large dogs). Twenty-eight dogs were identified with one of four CFTR missense mutations. P1281T and P1464H mutations occur in relatively unconserved residues. R1456W is analogous to the human R1453W mutation, which has approximately 20% of normal CFTR function and is associated with pancreatitis and panbronchiolitis.

DESIGN Case-control study. ANIMALS 44 dogs with idiopathic nasal discharge and 63 age- and weight-matched control dogs without nasal discharge and no clinical signs of bartonellosis. Procedures-Serum was tested for antibodies against Bartonella henselae and Bartonella vinsonii subsp berkhoffii with indirect fluorescent antibody assays. Blood was tested for Bartonella DNA with a PCR assay. RESULTS Results of the antibody and PCR assays were negative for all 44 dogs with idiopathic nasal discharge. One control dog had antibodies against B henselae; a second control dog had positive PCR assay results. We did not detect a significant association between assay results and group designation. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE The present study failed to confirm an association between idiopathic rhinitis and exposure to or infection with Bartonella spp in dogs. Findings do not rule out the possibility that Bartonella infection may cause nasal discharge in some dogs, but the failure to find any evidence of exposure to or infection with Bartonella spp in dogs with idiopathic nasal discharge suggested that Bartonella infection was not a common cause of the disease.}, number={4}, journal={Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association}, publisher={American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA)}, author={Hawkins, Eleanor C. and Johnson, Lynelle R. and Guptill, Lynn and Marr, Henry S. and Breitschwerdt, Edward B. and Birkenheuer, Adam J.}, year={2008}, month={Aug}, pages={597–599} } @inproceedings{hawkins_cohn_2008, title={The conundrum of the contagious canine cough}, booktitle={Western Veterinary Conference 2008}, author={Hawkins, E.C. and Cohn, L.A.}, year={2008} } @inbook{hawkins_2007, place={Ames, Iowa}, edition={4th}, title={Pneumonia, aspiration}, ISBN={9780781773607}, booktitle={Blackwell's five-minute veterinary consult : canine and feline}, publisher={Blackwell Publishing}, author={Hawkins, E.C.}, editor={Tilley, L.P. and Smith, F.W.K., JrEditors}, year={2007}, pages={1083} } @article{hawkins_birkenheuer_marr_rogala_large_adler_2007, title={Quantification of mucin gene expression in tracheobronchial epithelium of healthy dogs and dogs with chronic bronchitis}, volume={68}, ISSN={["1943-5681"]}, DOI={10.2460/ajvr.68.4.435}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={4}, journal={AMERICAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH}, author={Hawkins, Eleanor C. and Birkenheuer, Adam J. and Marr, Henry S. and Rogala, Allison R. and Large, Edward E. and Adler, Kenneth B.}, year={2007}, month={Apr}, pages={435–440} } @article{hawkins_rogala_large_bradley_grindem_2006, title={Cellular composition of bronchial brushings obtained from healthy dogs and dogs with chronic cough and cytologic composition of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid obtained from dogs with chronic cough}, volume={67}, ISSN={["1943-5681"]}, DOI={10.2460/ajvr.67.1.160}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={1}, journal={AMERICAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH}, author={Hawkins, EC and Rogala, AR and Large, EE and Bradley, JM and Grindem, CB}, year={2006}, month={Jan}, pages={160–167} } @inbook{hawkins_cohn_2006, place={Wilmington, DE}, title={Infectious rhinitis: What bugs?

Although few studies have examined the effects of DM on the pulmonary system, changes in pulmonary function and immunology in humans with type I and II diabetes, and pulmonary lesions in a murine diabetic model have been documented. Our objective was to determine whether pulmonary lesions occurred in cats with DM. Medical records and necropsy evaluations of 42 cats with DM were compared with those of 45 age-matched, nondiabetic cats for the presence of clinical evidence of respiratory disease and pulmonary histopathological findings at the time of necropsy. No statistical difference was noted in the presence of clinical evidence of respiratory disease between cats with diabetes and control cats. Nevertheless, there was a significant association between the presence of abnormal pulmonary histopathology and DM (P= .018, odds ratio = 3 inclusive of all cats; P= .005, odds ratio = 5 when non-DM cats with overt clinical evidence of respiratory disease were excluded). Pulmonary abnormalities detected by histopathological examination in cats with diabetes included congestion and edema, histiocytosis, pneumonia, smooth muscle hypertrophy, fibrosis, mineralization, neoplasia, and type II pneumocyte hyperplasia.

In veterinary medicine, such lung diseases with a prominent fibrotic component of unknown etiology are often called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

We identified 23 cats displaying histologic criteria of UIP The purpose of this retrospective study is to describe the presentation and response to therapy of these cats to better define this disease entity. All but 2 cats were middle aged to older (median 8.7 years), with no apparent sex or breed predisposition. Complaints included respiratory distress (n = 18) and cough (13). Duration of signs was less than 6 months in 17 cats. Physical-examination abnormalities included tachypnea, inspiratory or mixed inspiratory and expiratory effort, and adventitial lung sounds. No consistent hematologic or biochemical abnormalities, parasites, or positive serologic results for feline retroviruses, heartworms, or toxoplasmosis were present. Radiographic changes included dense patchy or diffuse interstitial, bronchiolar, and alveolar infiltrates. Analysis of bronchial lavage fluid revealed mild neutrophilic inflammation (n = 6) with no consistent pathogen growth. Clinical condition of 5 cats worsened after lavage. Coincident pulmonary neoplasia was identified in 6 cats. Response to therapy (corticosteroids, antibiotics, bronchodilators, and diuretics) was poor, and most cats died within days to months.

Separate survey instruments were developed for individuals who had committed to completing both the residency and PhD components and for graduate advisors of individuals who were granted the PhD degree. Results are summarized here. Most CIs reported believing that each component of the program (clinical training and research training) provided mutual benefits and that their teaching skills were enhanced, particularly as a result of instructing students in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. Opinions among both the CIs and the graduate advisors were divided about the benefits of a combined program compared with a sequential program; however, all but one of 11 CIs who completed the survey would enroll in the combined program again. The graduate advisors were overwhelmingly positive about the CIs they had advised and indicated that they would welcome a CI as a PhD student in their laboratory again. Suggested areas for improvement included guaranteed salary/stipend support for the average time to completion (six years) instead of for five years, as well as more emphasis on and guidance in identifying a graduate advisor earlier in the CI program so as to smooth the transition between the clinical and research training components of the program.

Veterinary students do not have sufficient clinical experience to observe personally all types of respiratory diseases and their resultant abnormal breathing patterns. We developed a teaching tool, the animated breathing pattern videotape (ABV), to fill this gap. The ABV is a collection of video clips of small animal patients with normal and abnormal breathing patterns on a conventional videotape of approximately 20 minutes duration. Each video clip is shown for 20 to 40 seconds, followed by the same clip with superimposed animation of rib and diaphragm motion, followed by the initial clip again, without overlying animation. The ABV has since been used in teaching third-year veterinary students, interns, residents, practicing veterinarians, and veterinary technicians.

The purpose of this report was to provide molecular evidence supporting E. canis-like infection in 3 cats that had clinical manifestations consistent with canine ehrlichiosis but lacked antibodies to E. canis antigens. Serum from all 3 cats contained antinuclear antibodies (ANAs). The predominant disease manifestation was polyarthritis in 1 cat and bone marrow hypoplasia or dysplasia. accompanied by pancytopenia or anemia and thrombocytopenia, in 1 cat each. The alignment of E. canis partial 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA: 382 nucleotide positions), amplified from EDTA blood samples from each cat, was identical to each other and was identical to a canine isolate of E. canis (GenBank accession number AF373613). In 1 cat, concurrent treatment with corticosteroids may have interfered with the therapeutic effectiveness of doxycycline for the elimination of E. canis-like infection. To further define the spectrum of ehrlichiosis in cats, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing may be necessary until serologic testing is thoroughly validated in experimentally or naturally infected cats. In addition, until E. canis has been isolated from cats and several tissue culture isolates are available from disparate geographic regions for detailed comparative genetic study, the molecular evidence presented in this study supporting E. canis-like infection in cats must be interpreted with caution.}, number={6}, journal={JOURNAL OF VETERINARY INTERNAL MEDICINE}, author={Breitschwerdt, EB and Abrams-Ogg, ACG and Lappin, MR and Bienzle, D and Hancock, SI and Cowan, SM and Clooten, JK and Hegarty, BC and Hawkins, EC}, year={2002}, pages={642–649} } @inproceedings{atkins_hawkins_2002, place={Gainesville, Fla.}, title={The coughing cat.

Twenty-one dogs with PDH were pro-spectively evaluated using thoracic radiography, arterial blood gas analysis, and bone phase and pulmonary perfusion scintigraphy (using 99mTc-macro-aggregated albumin [99mTc-MAA]). The radiographs and bone and perfusion studies were evaluated subjectively. An averaged quantitative count density ratio was calculated between the thorax and cranial thoraco-lumbar vertebrae from lateral thoracic 99mTc-MDP images. Thoracic: vertebral ratios were calculated using 99mTc-MDP studies from 21 control dogs. The thoracic: vertebral ratios were compared between the 2 groups (PDH and control). The mean age (±SD) of the 21 PDH dogs was 10.2 (±3) years, whereas the mean age of the control group was 9.8 (±3) years. Seven of the 21 dogs with PDH were hypoxemic (denned as an arterial partial pressure of oxygen [PaO2] <80 mm Hg) with an average PaO2 (±SD) of 62 (±15) mm Hg. Of the 7 hypoxemic dogs, 2 were found to have pulmonary mineralization based on bone scintigraphic images. Pulmonary perfusion abnormalities were not identified using 99mTc-MAA in any of the 21 PDH dogs. Six PDH dogs had an abnormal interstitial pulmonary pattern and 5 of these dogs were hypoxemic. The average quantitative thoracic: vertebral ratio was not significantly different between the PDH and control dogs (0.5 ± 0.4 versus 0.4 ± 0.1, P= .16). Causes of hypoxemia other than pulmonary thromboembolism should be considered in dogs with PDH.

Fluconazole concentrations were measured using a high‐performance liquid chromatography assay. Mean total body clearance of fluconazole was 37.7 mL/h.kg, mean volume of distribution at steady state was 1.14 L/kg, mean residence time was 31.0 h and mean half‐life of elimination was 25 h as derived by non‐compartmental analysis of data. Absorption was complete. Mean ratios of fluid:serum fluconazole concentrations following administration of 50 mg fluconazole per day for 8 days were as follows: cerebrospinal fluid, 0.88; aqueous humour 0.79; ELF, 1.20.

Similar to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the pathogenesis of FIV is associated with dysregulation of the cytokine network. While alterations in tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression have been reported in HIV-infected patients, changes attributable to HIV and those caused by cofactors such as secondary infections cannot always be readily distinguished. This study evaluated the effect of FIV infection on TNF-alpha and IL-6 production in cats not exposed to other potential cofactors such as secondary infections. TNF-alpha and IL-6 activities were evaluated in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells from FIV-infected and uninfected specific pathogen free (SPF) cats. Supernatants from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BAL cells from uninfected SPF cats had high levels of TNF-alpha and IL-6 activity, while stimulated BAL cell supernatants from FIV-infected SPF cats had significantly lower levels of TNF-alpha but unaltered IL-6 activity. Similarly, Con A/phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulated non-adherent (NA-) peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from FIV infected cats synthesized less TNF-alpha than similarly treated NA-PBMC from uninfected cats. Feline immunodeficiency virus could be recovered from the culture supernatants of BAL cells from infected cats by co-cultivation with susceptible lymphocytes.

Using the sample handling protocol of freezing urine at -70 degrees C before dialysis, urinary cTHP was quantified in male cats with no history of urolithiasis ("normal" cats) and in male cats with a history of urolith formation ("urolithiasis" cats). The mean cTHP concentration in adult, male "normal" cats of 49.2 +/- 35.5 micrograms/ml (N = 23) was significantly lower than the mean cTHP concentration of 95.4 +/- 34.1 micrograms/ml (N = 9) in "urolithiasis" cats (p < 0.01, Students' T-test). These findings indicate a correlation between urolithiasis and high urine cTHP concentrations in male cats which warrants further investigation.}, number={1-10}, journal={Journal of Veterinary Medicine Series A}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Rhodes, D.C.J. and Hinsman, E.J. and Rhodes, J.A. and Hawkins, E.C.}, year={1992}, month={Feb}, pages={621–634} } @article{boll_suckow_hawkins_1991, title={Bilateral ureteral calculi in a guinea pig}, volume={1}, journal={Journal of Small Exotic Animal Medicine}, author={Boll, R. and Suckow, M.A. and Hawkins, E.C.}, year={1991}, pages={60–63} } @article{hamilton_hawkins_denicola_1991, title={Bronchoalveolar lavage and tracheal wash in determining lung involvement in a cat with cryptococcosis}, volume={198}, number={4}, journal={Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association}, author={Hamilton, T.A. and Hawkins, E.C. and DeNicola, D.B.}, year={1991}, month={Feb}, pages={655–656} } @article{bronchoalveolar lavage and tracheal wash to determine lung involvement in a cat with cryptococcosis._1991, journal={Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association}, year={1991}, month={Feb} } @inbook{hawkins_1991, place={Philadelphia}, title={Diagnostic approach to polyphagia and weight loss}, booktitle={Consultations in Feline Internal Medicine}, publisher={WB Saunders Co}, author={Hawkins, E.C.}, editor={August, J.R.Editor}, year={1991}, pages={237–242} } @inbook{hawkins_1991, place={Philadelphia}, title={Investigation and management of neutropenia}, booktitle={Consultations in Feline Internal Medicine}, publisher={WB Saunders Co}, author={Hawkins, E.C.}, editor={August, J.R.Editor}, year={1991}, pages={343–348} } @article{hawkins_1991, title={Saliva and tear tests for feline leukemia virus}, volume={199}, number={10}, journal={Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association}, author={Hawkins, E.C.}, year={1991}, month={Nov}, pages={1382–1385} } @article{saliva and tear tests for feline leukemia virus._1991, journal={Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association}, year={1991}, month={Nov} } @article{hawkins_denicola_kuehn_1990, title={Bronchoalveolar Lavage in the Evaluation of Pulmonary Disease in the Dog and Cat}, volume={4}, ISSN={0891-6640 1939-1676}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1939-1676.1990.tb03120.x}, DOI={10.1111/j.1939-1676.1990.tb03120.x}, abstractNote={Bronchoalveolar lavage is a diagnostic procedure used to obtain specimens representative of disease processes involving the deep lung.
