  • METHOD AND KIT FOR DIAGNOSING GLAUCOMA IN DOGS
    Publication number: 20140141432
    Abstract: The present invention provides a canine glaucoma-susceptibility gene and a method of using the gene. Single nucleotide polymorphisms were analyzed and compared in glaucomatous dogs and normal dogs. Out of those polymorphic sites at which differences were observed between glaucomatous and normal dogs, two polymorphic sites of the Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Database (dbSNP) ID numbers rs22018513 and rs22018514 were found effective for diagnosis of glaucoma.
