Canine Health Bytes Webinar: Biomarkers of Canine Chronic Kidney Disease

Canine Health Bytes is a webinar series sponsored by the AKC Canine Health Foundation and presented by VetVine. The latest installment features a discussion topic of Biomarkers of Canine Chronic Kidney Disease. This webinar is on Tuesday, June 16th at 8 PM ET with guest speaker Mary Nabity, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVP.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can be challenging to diagnose, and our ability to determine the category of kidney disease using minimally or non-invasive samples is lacking. This webinar will provide a review of the currently available tests for kidney disease diagnosis and monitoring in dogs, followed by a discussion of promising new biomarkers, including microRNAs. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression and are thought to contribute to the progression of kidney disease. Furthermore, their stability in blood and urine supports their potential as biomarkers of disease. Those miRNAs that appear to be most promising as biomarkers or contributors to disease progression in dogs will be highlighted.
