Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Koh Arai"
- Koh Arai's research primarily focuses on the role of biomarkers in diagnosing joint-related conditions in animals, particularly within equine and canine populations.
- One significant study highlighted the potential of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) in synovial fluid, serum, and urine as a diagnostic tool for assessing osteochondral damage and osteophyte formation in racehorses with carpal fractures.
- Additionally, Arai investigated keratan sulfate concentrations in dogs, examining how factors like age, breed, and disease influence these levels, thereby expanding the understanding of serum biomarkers in veterinary practice.
