Convergent biology, divergent drivers: a cross-species comparison of human and canine invasive urothelial carcinoma

2026-08-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Traditional animal models are often inbred and genetically uniform. This makes them powerful for controlled experiments, but it limits how well they represent the patient-to-patient variation seen in real-world disease. Comparative oncology seeks to address this gap by studying naturally occurring cancers in outbred companion animals, especially dogs. Canine medicine offers two important advanta...
