Feline cognitive
dysfunction syndrome
dysfunction syndrome
Feline cognitive dysfunction syndrome (feline dementia; feline CDS) is a neurodegenerative
disease that occurs in old cats, where pathological changes in the brain similar to those
of human Alzheimer's disease are observed.
Similar to canine cognitive dysfunction syndrome, behavioral changes such as disorientation, changes in social interaction and sleeping patterns, house soiling, and changes in physical activity level occur characteristically in the feline CDS. Therefore, development of new drugs for feline CDS is needed since no appropriate treatments exist.
Canine/Feline pancreatitis
Canine/Feline pancreatitis is a disease that causes pain and loss of pancreatic function due to inflammation of the pancreas which secretes digestive enzymes and regulates blood glucose metabolism. Common clinical symptoms of pancreatitis include vomiting, diarrhea, lack of appetite, and abdominal pain. Fluid therapy, analgesics, and antiemetics can be used to alleviate symptoms. But there are no specific treatments to be able to fundamentally treat pancreatitis.
Canine/Feline inflammatory bowel disease
Canine/Feline inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a type of chronic enteritis, which is one of the most common digestive system disease causing persistent inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. The exact causes of IBD are unknown, but it is known to be caused by various factors related to immune system abnormalities or dietary factors.
Chronic vomiting and diarrhea are the most common clinical
symptoms, and the treatments include diet and immunomodulatory
drugs. However, the risk of side effects of immunomodulatory drugs
makes them difficult to treat for a long time. There are many cases of
poor prognosis, so the need for new drug development is emerging.
