• Identification of genomic regions that exhibit sexual dimorphism for size and muscularity in cattle 

  Doyle, Jennifer L.; Purfield, Deirdre C.; Moore, Tom; Carthy, Tara R.; Walsh, Siobhan W.; Veerkamp, Roel F.; Evans, Ross D.; Berry, Donagh P. (Oxford University Press, 2021-03-02)

  Sexual dimorphism, the phenomenon whereby males and females of the same species are distinctive in some aspect of appearance or size, has previously been documented in cattle for traits such as growth rate and carcass merit ...
• Microbial metabolites as molecular mediators of host-microbe symbiosis in colorectal cancer 

  Keane, Jonathan M.; Joyce, Susan A.; Gahan, Cormac G. M.; Hyland, Niall P.; Houston, Aileen (Springer Nature Switzerland AG, 2020-12-03)

  The symbiosis between the gut microbiota and the host has been identified as an integral part of normal human physiology and physiological development. Research in germ-free or gnotobiotic animals has demonstrated the ...
• IGF-1 receptor activity in the Golgi of migratory cancer cells depends on adhesion-dependent phosphorylation of Tyr1250 and Tyr1251 

  Rieger, Leonie; O’Shea, Sandra; Godsmark, Grant; Stanicka, Joanna; Kelly, Geraldine; O’Connor, Rosemary (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2020-05-26)

  Although insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) signaling promotes tumor growth and cancer progression, therapies that target the IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) have shown poor clinical efficacy. To address IGF-1R activity in cancer ...
• Genotypic and phenotypic characterization of food-associated Lactobacillus plantarum isolates for potential probiotic activities. 

  Prete, Roberta; Long, Sarah L.; Joyce, Susan A.; Corsetti, Aldo (Oxford University Press, 2020-05-09)

  Lactic acid bacterium, Lactobacillus plantarum, has been applied, for centuries, for food and drink fermentations. Given the benefits associated with fermented products, Lb. plantarum strains have captured considerable ...
• Regulated phase separation in nanopatterned protein-polysaccharide thin films by spin coating 

  Banta, Russell A.; Collins, Timothy W.; Curley, Ricky; O'Connell, John; Young, Paul W.; Holmes, Justin D.; Flynn, Eoin J. (Elsevier, 2020-03-18)

  Patterned films are essential to the commonplace technologies of modern life. However, they come at high cost to the planet, being produced from non-renewable, petrochemical-derived polymers and utilising substrates that ...
