Abstract: Disclosed are a pharmaceutical composition for animals containing 5-hydroxy-1-methylimidazolidine-2,4-dione as an active ingredient, more specifically, a composition for preventing or treating kidney disease in animals containing 5-hydroxy-1-methylimidazolidine-2,4-dione or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient, a method of treating kidney disease in animals using the compound, and a functional feed for preventing or ameliorating kidney disease in animals containing the compound as an active ingredient. The 5-hydroxy-1-methylimidazolidine-2,4-dione can effectively ameliorate and treat symptoms of kidney disease when administered to companion animals such as dogs or cats with kidney disease. Therefore, there are provided a novel agent and method for treating kidney disease of animals that can effectively treat kidney disease, which is the cause of high mortality in companion animals.

Abstract: Disclosed are a compound with near-infrared fluorescence that selectively binds to tau aggregates, a method for preparing the same, a tau-targeting near-infrared fluorescent probe including the compound, a composition for detecting a tau fiber protein containing the near-infrared fluorescent probe as an active ingredient, and the use of the composition for the diagnosis of tauopathy. In particular, the compound does not bind to an amyloid beta protein and has high selectivity to a tau aggregate, specifically reported as an etiology of the initial state of tauopathy, thus being useful as a near-infrared fluorescent detector for detecting a tau fiber protein for early diagnosis of a tauopathy including Alzheimer's disease.
