Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis (CME), induced by Ehrlichia canis, is an important infectious disease in dogs, characterized by various clinical signs and consequent immune dysfunction. This study aimed to characterize nuclear morphology, chromatin compaction, histone H3 acetylation, and DNA methylation in lymphocytes from dogs naturally infected with E. canis, compared with healthy controls.

Objectives: The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of vasodilator administration on CT angiography (CTA) prostatic artery diameter and peak opacification in dogs with prostatic carcinoma prior to prostatic artery embolization (PAE).
Materials And Methods: A prospective clinical trial was performed. Ten dogs with naturally occurring prostatic carcinoma and no evidence of cardiovascular disease were enrolled.

Canine mast cell tumors (MCTs) are common skin neoplasms with varying biological behaviors. The proto-oncogene plays a key role in the development of these tumors, and internal tandem duplications on exon 11 are usually associated with more aggressive behavior, increased local recurrence, and decreased survival time. However, apart from exons 8-11 and 17, there is limited understanding of the overall mutational landscape in canine MCTs.

In this study, the expression and localization of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH1) and kisspeptin (KISS1) and their specific receptors in canine ovarian and uterine tissues were investigated after the application of deslorelin acetate (Suprelorin, 4.7 mg, Virbac, France) in the late prepubertal period. We hypothesized that prolonged treatment of prepubertal dogs with deslorelin would alter the expression of GnRH and kisspeptin genes in the uterus and ovaries.
