Estrogen reduces the severity of autonomic dysfunction in spinal cord-injured male miceAubrey A Webb
Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Prince Edward Island, Charlottetown, Canada
Behav Brain Res 171:338-49. 2006..We have shown that E reduces autonomic dysreflexic responses to visceral but not somatic stimulation in male mice independent of the size of the primary afferent arbour, the degree of chronic inflammation, and the presence of UCP-2...

Hotchkiss Brain Institute, Department of Comparative Biology and Experimental Medicine, University of Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Can Vet J 51:598-604. 2010..This 2-part review provides information that will assist general and specialty veterinary practitioners in evidence-based veterinary medical practice in an area that has become particularly specialized...
Spinal cord injury I: A synopsis of the basic scienceAubrey A Webb
Hotchkiss Brain Institute, Department of Comparative Biology and Experimental Medicine, University of Calgary, 3330 Hospital Drive, NW, Calgary, Alberta T2N 4N1
Can Vet J 51:485-92. 2010....
Lafora disease as a cause of visually exacerbated myoclonic attacks in a dogAubrey A Webb
Department of Comparative Biology and Experimental Medicine, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Calgary, 3330 Hospital Drive, NW, Calgary, Alberta T2N 4N1
Can Vet J 50:963-7. 2009..Generalized seizure activity was infrequent. Clinical examination revealed visually stimulated myoclonus. Response to therapy with antiepileptic drugs was equivocal. Genetic testing identified the dog as being affected by Lafora disease...
Dose and duration of nerve growth factor (NGF) administration determine the extent of behavioral recovery following peripheral nerve injury in the ratStephen W P Kemp
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Faculty of Medicine, Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, 3330 Hospital Drive NW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2N 4N1
Exp Neurol 229:460-70. 2011..Overall, these data support the hypothesis that both appropriate dose and duration of NGF are important determinants of behavioral recovery following nerve injury in the rat...
Behavioural and anatomical analysis of selective tibial nerve branch transfer to the deep peroneal nerve in the ratStephen W P Kemp
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Faculty of Medicine, Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, 3330 Hospital Drive NW, Calgary, Alberta, T2N 4N1, Canada
Eur J Neurosci 31:1074-90. 2010..Our results demonstrate a task-dependent recovery process, where skilled locomotor recovery is similar between nerve transfer and direct repair animals, whereas flat surface locomotion is significantly better in direct repair animals...
Traumatic neuroma in continuity injury model in rodentsJacob Daniel de Villiers Alant
Department of Clinical Neurosciences, Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
J Neurotrauma 29:1691-703. 2012..This model may serve as a tool to help diagnose this injury earlier and to develop intervention strategies to improve patient outcomes...
Intracranial meningioma causing internal ophthalmoparesis in a dogAubrey A Webb
Department of Biomedical Sciences, Atlantic Veterinary College, Universit of Prince Edward Island, Charlottetown, PE, Canada
Vet Ophthalmol 8:421-5. 2005..The dog became comatose within 12 h following MRI and was euthanized. Histopathology identified the intracranial mass as a meningioma...
Sensorimotor behaviour following incomplete cervical spinal cord injury in the ratAubrey A Webb
Canadian Institutes of Health Research Post doctoral Fellow, Department of Biomedical Sciences, Atlantic Veterinary College, University of Prince Edward Island, 550 University Avenue, Charlottetown, PEI, Canada C1A 4P3
Behav Brain Res 165:147-59. 2005..We also provide insight into the neuroanatomic substrates important for performing a given behaviour, information which may prove essential in the development of site-directed therapeutic strategies...
Keratoconjunctival effects of diabetes mellitus in dogsCheryl L Cullen
Department of Companion Animals, Atlantic Veterinary College, University of Prince Edward Island, 550 University Avenue, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada C1A 4P3
Vet Ophthalmol 8:215-24. 2005..Degree of cataract and uveitis were critically graded. Glycemic control was estimated using serum fructosamine and glycosylated hemoglobin...
Brainstem auditory evoked responses and ophthalmic findings in llamas and alpacas in Eastern CanadaAubrey A Webb
Department of Biomedical Sciences, Atlantic Veterinary College, University of Prince Edward Island, 550 University Avenue, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island
Can Vet J 47:74-7. 2006..No animals were deaf. The most common ocular abnormalities noted were iris-to-iris persistent pupillary membranes and incipient cataracts...
Dorsolateral cervical spinal injury differentially affects forelimb and hindlimb action in ratsGillian D Muir
Biomedical Sciences, Western College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Saskatchewan, 52 Campus Drive, Saskatoon, SK, Canada S7N 5B4
Eur J Neurosci 25:1501-10. 2007..We discuss these findings in relation to previous work and to the possible contributions of different ascending and descending pathways in the DLF to locomotion and skilled movements in rats...
Course of motor recovery following ventrolateral spinal cord injury in the ratAubrey A Webb
Department of Veterinary Biomedical Sciences, Western College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Sask, Canada S7N 5B4
Behav Brain Res 155:55-65. 2004..These results suggest that axons in the ventrolateral spinal funiculi contribute to limb movements during exploration and locomotion but their roles can be served by other pathways after ventrolateral spinal injury...
Unilateral dorsal column and rubrospinal tract injuries affect overground locomotion in the unrestrained ratAubrey A Webb
Department of Veterinary Biomedical Sciences, Western College of Veterinary Medicine, 52 Campus Drive, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, Canada
Eur J Neurosci 18:412-22. 2003..Additionally, the ascending dorsal column pathways and the rubrospinal tract play a role during flat surface overground locomotion and combined damage to these pathways does not alter the acquired gait...
Compensatory locomotor adjustments of rats with cervical or thoracic spinal cord hemisectionsAubrey A Webb
Department of Veterinary Biomedical Sciences, Western College of Veterinary Medicine, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
J Neurotrauma 19:239-56. 2002..We conclude that rats develop a general compensatory response for unilateral CNS lesions, which may help stabilize the animal during locomotion...
