EClinicalMedicine . 2020 Jan; 18:100246. PMID: 31956857
Background: Self-harm in adolescents is common and repetition frequent. Evidence for effective interventions to reduce self-harm is limited. Long term follow-up of existing studies is rare. Methods: Extended follow up,...

Berry C, Davies K, Owens D, Wilcox M
Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis . 2017 Aug; 36(12):2405-2415. PMID: 28780742
Some strains of Clostridium difficile produce a binary toxin, in addition to the main C. difficile virulence factors (toxins A and B). There have been conflicting reports regarding the role...

Al-Habsi A, Alkindi A, Mahmoud I, Owens D, Khan T, Al-Abri A
J Endocrinol . 2006 Oct; 191(1):9-14. PMID: 17065384
Circulating estradiol (E(2)), progesterone (Pro), testosterone, and corticosterone (B) levels were monitored in the green turtles Chelonia mydas during different nesting phases. Successful nesting includes emergence from sea, chamber and...

Owens D, Lane E
J Pathol . 2004 Oct; 204(4):377-85. PMID: 15495267
Whilst the importance of mutations in a wide range of keratins in skin fragility disorders is now well established, there is much less evidence for simple epithelial keratin involvement in...

Owens D, Wilson N, Hill A, Rugg E, Porter R, Hutcheson A, et al.
J Cell Sci . 2004 Apr; 117(Pt 10):1989-99. PMID: 15090596
We have identified miss-sense mutations in keratin 8 in a subset of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis). Inflammatory bowel diseases are a group of disorders...

Jones R, Avizienyte E, Wyke A, Owens D, Brunton V, Frame M
Br J Cancer . 2002 Oct; 87(10):1128-35. PMID: 12402152
Elevated expression and/or activity of c-Src, the prototype of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases, is associated with the development of human colon cancer. However, despite the known pleiotropic...

Owens D, Brunton V, Parkinson E, Frame M
Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 2000 Mar; 269(2):369-76. PMID: 10708559
The origin of the signal for keratinocyte differentiation is still unknown. Here, we show that Ca(2+)- and density-induced translocation of E-cadherin, but not P-cadherin, is accompanied by induction of differentiation-specific...

Owens D, McLean G, Wyke A, Paraskeva C, Parkinson E, Frame M, et al.
Mol Biol Cell . 2000 Jan; 11(1):51-64. PMID: 10637290
Despite the importance of epithelial cell contacts in determining cell behavior, we still lack a detailed understanding of the assembly and disassembly of intercellular contacts. Here we examined the role...

Valverde R, Owens D, MacKenzie D, Amoss M
J Exp Zool . 1999 Oct; 284(6):652-62. PMID: 10531552
Adrenocortical responsiveness to turning stress was examined in wild, reproductively-active olive ridley sea turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) in relation to their mass nesting (arribada) behavior. We hypothesized that the high sensitivity...

Focal adhesion kinase (pp125FAK) is present at sites of cell/extracellular matrix adhesion and has been implicated in the control of cell behaviour. In particular, as a key component of integrin-stimulated...
