1.
Leonard E, Porteus C, Brink D, Milsom W
J Comp Physiol B . 2024 May; 194(5):1-33. PMID: 38758303
In this review, we explore the inconsistencies in the data and gaps in our knowledge that exist in what is currently known regarding gill chemosensors which drive the cardiorespiratory reflexes...

Leonard E, Nurse C
Adv Exp Med Biol . 2023 Jun; 1427:185-194. PMID: 37322349
In mammals, cardiorespiratory reflexes originating in the carotid body (CB) help maintain homeostasis by matching oxygen supply to oxygen demand. CB output to the brainstem is shaped by synaptic interactions...

Leonard E, Weaver F, Nurse C
J Exp Biol . 2022 Nov; 225(23). PMID: 36420741
Lactate is produced in most vertebrate cells as a by-product of anaerobic metabolism. In addition to its role as a fuel for many tissues, circulating lactate can act as a...

Blewett T, Leonard E, Glover C, McClelland G, Wood C, McGeer J, et al.
Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol . 2021 Aug; 250:109150. PMID: 34352398
Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is known to ameliorate the toxicity of the trace metal nickel (Ni) to aquatic animals. In theory, this effect is mediated by the capacity of DOC...

Kolosov D, Leonard E, ODonnell M
J Insect Physiol . 2021 Mar; 131:104230. PMID: 33766540
Transporting epithelia are tissues that specialize in the directional movements of ions and water and are typically either secretory or reabsorptive. Recent work on the Malpighian tubule of larval lepidopterans...

Leonard E, Nurse C
Int J Mol Sci . 2020 Aug; 21(15). PMID: 32751703
Dopamine (DA) is a well-studied neurochemical in the mammalian carotid body (CB), a chemosensory organ involved in O and CO/H homeostasis. DA released from receptor (type I) cells during chemostimulation...

Kulesza A, Leonard E, McClelland G
Aquat Toxicol . 2019 Dec; 218:105373. PMID: 31786386
Production of industrial effluents have led to increased copper (Cu) pollution of aquatic ecosystems, impacting the physiology of aquatic vertebrates. Past work has shown that Cu exerts its toxicity by...

Leonard E, Zhang M, Nurse C
Exp Physiol . 2018 Nov; 104(2):244-253. PMID: 30456914
New Findings: What is the central question of this study? The mammalian carotid body (CB) is a peripheral chemoreceptor organ involved in O and CO /H homeostasis. Recent studies suggest...

Leonard E, Belowitz R, Agema P, ODonnell M
Environ Toxicol Chem . 2018 Jun; 37(10):2542-2549. PMID: 29920766
Chironomids are often one of the dominant organisms in significantly polluted freshwater. Many invertebrate studies have characterized whole-organism mechanisms of toxicity, for example, assessing cadmium (Cd) uptake via calcium (Ca)...

Leonard E, Salman S, Nurse C
Front Physiol . 2018 Apr; 9:225. PMID: 29615922
Maintenance of homeostasis in the respiratory and cardiovascular systems depends on reflexes that are initiated at specialized peripheral chemoreceptors that sense changes in the chemical composition of arterial blood. In...
