In dogs, selective insulin deficiency induced by simultaneous somatostatin and glucagon infusion does not alter the high rate of glucose utilization provoked by acute cold exposure. However, both in resting and in shivering dogs, lowering of plasma insulin decreases plasma glucose metabolic clearance significantly.

Multisite Injections of Canine Glial-Restricted Progenitors Promote Brain Myelination and Extend the Survival of Dysmyelinated Mice.

Article Synopsis
- * A previous study showed that transplanting canine glial-restricted progenitors (cGRPs) into certain genetically altered mice led to some myelination, but results varied based on where the cells were injected.
- * The current research aimed to enhance the effectiveness of cGRP transplantation by using a multisite injection method, resulting in increased myelination, higher expression of myelin proteins, and improved survival rates in the treated mice.

Invasive infections caused by , a Gram-negative rod found in the oral cavity of healthy dogs and cats, are rare but they are increasing worldwide. We report a case of septic arthritis in a native knee joint due to this micro-organism. A 57-year-old man, with a well-controlled chronic HIV infection, attended the Emergency Department because of left knee pain and shivering without measured fever.

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) expresses uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1), which enables energy to be exerted towards needed thermogenesis. Beige adipocytes are precursor cells interspersed among white adipose tissue (WAT) that possess similar UCP1 activity and capacity for thermogenesis. The raccoon dog () is a canid species that utilizes seasonal obesity to survive periods of food shortage in climate zones with cold winters.

Immune mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) is a life-threatening disease with severe, acute hemolysis as a result of an autoimmune response directed against erythrocyte surface antigens. In veterinary medicine, IMHA is usually treated with immunosuppressants and often multiple blood transfusions. In human medicine, immunoadsorption (IA) is an established therapy for antibody removal in immune-mediated diseases.

A boy affected by autism spectrum disorder was admitted for persistent high fever, without shiver, for two weeks. The boy referred to abdominal pain, in the first week of fever, and to mild anorexia in the last days before admittance to our hospital centre. The father reported that the boy suffered by geophagia and coprophagia and he has been going to a didactical farm (where he has been exposed to several kinds of animals) to improve his neuropsychiatric condition.
