The present invention provides methods for: diagnosing of, devising and monitoring a treatment plan for, and monitoring the status of a kidney disorder characterized by an abnormal loss of renal function, renal failure, reduced glomerular filtration rate or glomerulonephritis, in a canine, wherein the kidney disorder is detectable by utilizing at least one relevant biomarker isolated and measured from a biological test sample taken from such canine. The invention additionally relates to compositions, reagents and kits for carrying out the specified methods.
摘要:
The present invention encompasses methods and kits employing pattern recognition receptor expression as a measure of systemic health in a subject afflicted with an oral health condition. In particular, the present invention is directed to methods involving measurement of the expression levels of one or more Pattern Recognition Receptors including but not limited to Toll Like Receptors, myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MyD88), and Nucleotide Binding oligomerization domain containing protein 1 (NOD1), in a companion animal, e.g., a dog or a cat, afflicted with an oral health condition. The described methods enable evaluation of the systemic health of the animal afflicted with an oral health condition by measuring expression levels of the indicated genes as compared to suitable controls.
