In this work, for the first time, a method has been developed for the determination of AZD6118, a candidate drug, in dog plasma samples. The method is based on microextraction by packed sorbent (MEPS) of the drug prior to liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry assay. Various important factors affecting MEPS performance were optimized, and under the optimized condition, a linear calibration curve in the concentration range of 20-25,000nmolL with a coefficient of determination over 0.99 was obtained. The back-calculated values of the calibration points showed good agreement with the theoretical concentrations (coefficients of variation percent between 0.3-3.8). The lower limit of quantification and limit of detection were 20.0 and 2.9nmolL, respectively. The repeatability and accuracy of the method was evaluated by determination of quality control samples at three concentration levels (low, medium and high) using the developed method, and the results (coefficients of variation values were between 1.9% and 3.2%, relative recoveries ranged between 93.5-102.1%) confirm that a powerful method has been developed for the extraction and determination of the investigated drug in dog plasma.

Background: Dogs with hepatocutaneous syndrome (HCS) have marked plasma hypoaminoacidemia, but its occurrence in dogs with chronic liver diseases not associated with HCS (non-HCS CLD) is unknown.
Objectives: To determine if plasma hypoaminoacidemia occurs in dogs with non-HCS CLD, compare plasma amino acid (PAA) profiles between dogs with non-HCS CLD and HCS, and define a sensitive and specific PAA pattern for diagnosing HCS.
Animals: Data were collected from client-owned dogs, a prospective cohort of 32 with CLD and 1 with HCS, and a retrospective cohort of 7 with HCS.

Objective: To examine the effects of age, sex, year of death/sample collection, and liver histopathology on liver copper concentrations in dogs fed a wide variety of commercial dog foods throughout their lives.
Methods: This study utilized all bioarchived liver samples collected during necropsy at time of death from 2006 to 2022 from dogs housed in a closed feeding colony. Liver samples were analyzed on a dry matter basis for copper concentration by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry and did not require specific criteria for selection.

The cardiopulmonary nematode Angiostrongylus vasorum can cause severe disease in dogs, including coagulopathies manifesting with bleeding. We analysed A. vasorum excretory/secretory protein (ESP)-treated dog plasma and serum by N-terminome analysis using Terminal Amine Isotopic Labelling of Substrates (TAILS) to identify cleaved host substrates.

Objective: Idiopathic epilepsy (IE) is the most common chronic neurological disease in dogs and an established natural animal model for human epilepsy types with genetic and unknown etiology. However, the metabolic pathways underlying IE remain largely unknown.
Methods: Plasma samples of healthy dogs (n = 39) and dogs with IE (n = 49) were metabolically profiled (n = 121 known target metabolites) and fingerprinted (n = 1825 untargeted features) using liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry.
