Effect of sampling site on the diagnosis of canine parvovirus infection in dogs using polymerase chain reaction

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
Background Accurate diagnosis is imperative in dogs with clinical signs of parvovirus infection (CPV‐2). Objectives To assess quantitative real‐time PCR (qRT‐PCR) for the diagnosis of CPV‐2 infection, and determine the optimal sampling site. Secondarily,

Identification and Clinical Significance of Heart Murmurs in Puppies Involved in Puppy Trade

Veterinary Sciences, 2021
The detection of a congenital heart defect at purchase is an important step in early detection from a clinical and legal standpoint. Indeed, some cardiac abnormalities may be corrected with surgery, and very often, treatment needs to be performed early ...

Dead or Alive? A Review of Perinatal Factors That Determine Canine Neonatal Viability

Animals, 2022
The perinatal period has a critical impact on viability of the newborns. The variety of factors that can potentially affect the health of a litter during pregnancy, birth, and the first weeks of life requires proper attention from both the breeder and ...

Optimising Puppy Socialisation–Short- and Long-Term Effects of a Training Programme during the Early Socialisation Period

Animals, 2022
The socialisation period in dog puppies is one of the most important periods determining behavioural development in dogs. Here, we aimed to test the effect of providing stimulation (beyond mere exposure) early during the socialisation period (approx. 3–6

Microbiome: Puppy power [PDF]

Nature, 2017
Once anathema, it now seems that a 'dirty' environment can enrich a baby's microbiome and lessen her or his likelihood of developing everything from obesity to asthma. Again, it seems that we can rely on man's best friend to help us out.

Inhibition of IGFBP4 in Granulosa Cells Improves Reproductive Performance and Maintains Fertility With Age via YAP Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 is upregulated in granulosa cells of aged ovaries across monkeys, mice, and humans. It inhibits YAP signaling, thereby suppressing cell proliferation and contributing to follicular dysfunction. Deletion of Igfbp4 in granulosa cells enhances ovulatory output, improves hormone profiles, and reproductive performance in aged female mice, suggesting ...

V Puppis.

The Astrophysical Journal, 1962
The spectrum of V Puppis shows double lines; it can be classified as B1V + B3V. There is a variation in the appearance of the spectral lines in the sense that, in the second half of the cycle, as counted from primary minimum, they appear to be sharper.

Tropomyosin 1 Promotes Platelet Adhesion and Clot Contraction Separate from Its Roles in Developmental Hematopoiesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) link the Tropomyosin 1 (Tpm1) locus to quantitative blood trait variation, but related mechanisms are unclear. Tpm1 encodes an actin‐binding protein that regulates actin filament diversity, cell adhesion, signaling, and actomyosin contractility.
