Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Dobermans and Boxers

This study attempts at investigating the changes in cardiac gene expression that occur in Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM). DCM in Dobermans and Boxers are the focus of this study. Control heart tissue as well as Pacing tissue used is from mongrel dogs. Keywords: control vs pacing vs disease; strain specific disease 3 Dobermans-DCM, 4 Boxers-DCM, 3 mongrels-control and 3 mongrels-pacing本研究旨在探究扩张型心肌病（Dilated Cardiomyopathy，DCM）发生时的心脏基因表达变化。本研究聚焦于杜宾犬与拳师犬的扩张型心肌病。本研究所使用的对照心脏组织与起搏组织均来源于杂种犬。关键词：对照vs起搏vs疾病；品系特异性疾病。样本包括3例杜宾犬扩张型心肌病样本、4例拳师犬扩张型心肌病样本、3例杂种犬对照样本以及3例杂种犬起搏样本。
