Testing Strategies to Treat Drug-Resistant Hemangiosarcomas
Investigators are assessing the potential for a specific tumor-cell population in canine hemangiosarcoma to sequester drugs within their lysosomes as a novel mechanism of drug resistance.
Assessing Immune Stimulation as a Potential Therapy for Osteosarcoma
This study will characterize the expression of toll-like receptors, which activate the immune system, in canine osteosarcoma cells to better determine the biological consequences associated with activating these receptors.
Morris Animal Foundation Data Commons Offers Rich Database
July 6, 2023 – Access to big data – more than 51 million data points – from the Golden Retriever Lifetime Study is available through the Foundation’s Data Commons, a comprehensive, free resource for researchers interested in receiving and using longitudinal data from the Study to advance veterinary research.
Working Toward More Effective Treatments for Hemangiosarcoma
Researchers are exploring if a protein found in some human cancers is also present in hemangiosarcoma tumors, and is a feasible therapy target.
Working Toward an Early Diagnostic Test for Hemangiosarcoma
Researchers will study the feasibility of using molecules called microRNAs as an early detection tool for hemangiosarcoma, an often-fatal cancer in dogs.
Investigating the Origin and Progression of Feline Intestinal Lymphoma
Researchers will study how inflammatory bowel disease progresses into feline intestinal lymphoma, a much-needed step toward the development of better preventives, diagnostics and therapies.
Identifying Diagnostic and Therapeutic Targets for Splenic Hemangiosarcoma
Researchers will use a novel approach to differentiate between cancerous and normal cells surrounding splenic hemangiosarcoma tumors to improve successful tumor removal and drug delivery.
Finding Solutions for Giant-Breed Dogs with Osteosarcoma
Researchers are creating tools to estimate fracture risk in giant-breed dogs with osteosarcoma as well as evaluating a novel method to stabilize the affected bone.
