Researchers at Cornell University in Ithaca have made a discovery linking more than 15 genes to gastric cancer by studying canine DNA. The study suggests that dogs can serve as effective models for understanding how both dogs and humans may be susceptible to this disease. By analyzing the genetic material of dogs, the Cornell team was able to pinpoint several genetic factors involved in gastric cancer. This research highlights how studying animal models can advance knowledge of human diseases.
