2024-10-04
Abstract excerpt
Dogs exhibit striking within-species variability in lifespan, with smaller breeds often living more than twice as long as larger breeds. This longevity discrepancy also extends to health and aging–larger dogs show higher rates of age-related diseases. Despite this well-established phenomenon, we still know little about the biomarkers and molecular mechanisms that might underlie breed differences in aging and survi...
