Despite identifying some shared gene associations with human atopic dermatitis the use of multiple dog breeds from various locations limits detection of gene associations in canine atopic dermatitisShona H Wood
Department of Comparative Molecular Medicine, School of Veterinary Science, The University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK
Vet Immunol Immunopathol 138:193-7. 2010..This study therefore suggests that further candidate gene studies in cAD should be breed and location specific to increase the likelihood of finding associations with the disease...
Reference genes for canine skin when using quantitative real-time PCRShona H Wood
Department of Veterinary Pathology, Faculty of Veterinary Science, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK
Vet Immunol Immunopathol 126:392-5. 2008..RPL13A and CG14980 were found to be the most stably expressed genes in canine whole skin and would be more suitable as reference genes in future studies...
Gene expression in canine atopic dermatitis and correlation with clinical severity scoresShona H Wood
Department of Veterinary Pathology, Faculty of Veterinary Science, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK
J Dermatol Sci 55:27-33. 2009..Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a common condition in dogs that may be a naturally occurring model for human atopic dermatitis (hAD). Despite this, comparative research is limited, particularly into the genetic background of cAD...
Genome-wide association analysis of canine atopic dermatitis and identification of disease related SNPsShona Hiedi Wood
Department of Veterinary Pathology, Faculty of Veterinary Science, The University of Liverpool, Liverpool, L69 3ZJ, UK
Immunogenetics 61:765-72. 2009..Given the clinical heterogeneity within this condition and the likelihood that the relative genetic effect sizes are small, greater sample sizes and further studies will be required...
