Dog obesity--the need for identifying predisposing genetic markers.

Research in veterinary science - 1 Dec 2013

Switonski M, Mankowska M

Abstract excerpt

Incidence of overweight and obesity in dogs exceeds 30%, and several breeds are predisposed to this heritable phenotype. Rapid progress of canine genomics and advanced knowledge on the genetic background of human obesity bring a unique opportunity to perform such studies in dogs. Natural candidate genes for obesity are these encoding adipokines. Extended studies in humans indicated that polymorphisms of three of...
