BACKGROUND: The domestic dog represents an important model for studying the genetics of behavior. In spite of technological advances in genomics and phenomics, the genetic basis of most specific canine behaviors is largely unknown. Some breeds of hunting dogs...

Analysis of DLA-DQB1 and polymorphisms in CTLA4 in Cocker spaniels affected with immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia.

Canine Genet Epidemiol. 2015 Jun 09;2:8. doi: 10.1186/s40575-015-0020-y. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Cocker spaniels are predisposed to immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia (IMHA), suggesting that genetic factors influence disease susceptibility. Dog leukocyte antigen (DLA) class II genes encode major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules that are involved in antigen presentation to CD4(+) T...

BACKGROUND: Hypothyroidism is one of the most common endocrine disorders, whereas symmetrical onychomadesis is a rare claw disease in the general dog population. The aims of this study were to estimate the prevalence of hypothyroidism and symmetrical onychomadesis in...

The effect of genetic bottlenecks and inbreeding on the incidence of two major autoimmune diseases in standard poodles, sebaceous adenitis and Addison's disease.

Canine genetics and epidemiology

Pedersen NC, Brucker L, Tessier NG, Liu H, Penedo MC, Hughes S, Oberbauer A, Sacks B.

BACKGROUND: Sebaceous adenitis (SA) and Addison's disease (AD) increased rapidly in incidence among Standard Poodles after the mid-twentieth century. Previous attempts to identify specific genetic causes using genome wide association studies and interrogation of the dog leukocyte antigen (DLA)...

Demography and health of Pugs under primary veterinary care in England.

Canine genetics and epidemiology

O'Neill DG, Darwent EC, Church DB, Brodbelt DC.
PMID: 27293771
Canine Genet Epidemiol. 2016 Jun 10;3:5. doi: 10.1186/s40575-016-0035-z. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: The Pug is an ancient dog breed and was the fifth most commonly registered UK pedigree breed in 2014. However, the breed has been reported to be predisposed to several disorders including ocular, respiratory and dermatological problems. The...

Lumbosacral stenosis in Labrador retriever military working dogs - an exomic exploratory study.

Canine genetics and epidemiology

Mukherjee M, Jones JC, Yao J.
PMID: 29085643
Canine Genet Epidemiol. 2017 Oct 23;4:12. doi: 10.1186/s40575-017-0052-6. eCollection 2017.

BACKGROUND: Canine lumbosacral stenosis is defined as narrowing of the caudal lumbar and/or sacral vertebral canal. A risk factor for neurologic problems in many large sized breeds, lumbosacral stenosis can also cause early retirement in Labrador retriever military working...

Neuter status as a risk factor for canine intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) in dachshunds: a retrospective cohort study.

Canine genetics and epidemiology

Dorn M, Seath IJ.
PMID: 30459956
Canine Genet Epidemiol. 2018 Nov 15;5:11. doi: 10.1186/s40575-018-0067-7. eCollection 2018.

BACKGROUND: Intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) involves displacement of the intervertebral disc secondary to disc degeneration and is extremely common in dachshunds. Clinical signs include pain with or without paresis or paralysis. Mortality rate is high and some cases are...

Meeting report from the Companion Animal Genetic Health conference 2018 (CAGH 2018): a healthy companionship: the genetics of health in dogs.

Canine genetics and epidemiology

Covariate adjusted inference of parent-of-origin effects using case-control mother-child paired multilocus genotype data.

Genetic epidemiology

Zhang K, Zhang H, Hochner H, Chen J.
PMID: 34424572
Genet Epidemiol. 2021 Dec;45(8):830-847. doi: 10.1002/gepi.22428. Epub 2021 Aug 23.

It is of great interest to identify parent-of-origin effects (POEs) since POEs play an important role in many human heritable disorders and human early life growth and development. POE is sometimes referred to as imprinting effect in the literature....

Precisely modeling zero-inflated count phenotype for rare variants.

Genetic epidemiology

Fan Q, Sun S, Li YJ.

Count data with excessive zeros are increasingly ubiquitous in genetic association studies, such as neuritic plaques in brain pathology for Alzheimer's disease. Here, we developed gene-based association tests to model such data by a mixture of two distributions, one...

DachsLife 2015: an investigation of lifestyle associations with the risk of intervertebral disc disease in Dachshunds.

Pathway analysis can complement point-wise single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis in exploring genomewide association study (GWAS) data to identify specific disease-associated genes that can be candidate causal genes. We propose a straightforward methodology that can be used for conducting...
