Abstract
Background: Gerontology is a major research topic in veterinary medicine; however, there are few reports on changes in biomarker levels in aged dogs.
Aim: The purpose of this preliminary study was to evaluate the differences in serum biomarker levels between young (less than 36 months) and old (over 108 months) companion dogs.
Methods: We measured the serum concentrations of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), osteoprotegerin (OPG), angiotensin II (ANGII), and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in both groups (young: n=16, 19.8±9.3 months old; old: n=16, 155.8±22.8 months old).
Results: Although the concentrations of BDNF did not differ between the two groups, the OPG, ANGII, and ET-1 levels were significantly higher in the old companion dogs than in the young dogs (p<0.05).
Conclusion: OPG, ANGII, and ET-1 concentrations may increase in dogs during aging.

Key words: Angiotensin II, Brain-derived growth factor, Dogs, Endothelin-1, Osteoprotegerin
