The canine gut microbiome is associated with higher risk of gastric dilatation-volvulus and high risk genetic variants of the immune system
BACKGROUND: Large and giant dog breeds have a high risk for gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV) which is an acute, life-threatening condition. Previous work by our group identified a strong risk of GDV linked to specific alleles in innate and adaptive immune genes. We hypothesize that variation in the...
