    This study was carried out to determine the effects of short-acting anaesthetics on haemodynamic function determined by Doppler ultrasonography. Prior to anaesthesia, Doppler parameters [peak systolic blood flow velocity (psBFV), end-diastolic blood flow velocity (edBFV), minimum diastolic blood flow velocity (mdBFV) and resistive index (RI)] were obtained from the right common carotid artery (CCA), abdominal aorta (AA) and right kidney in New Zealand rabbits (n= 24). Animals were then divided into 3 groups to be anaesthetized with propofol (Group P), 2.5% thiopental sodium (Group T) and xylazine/ketamine HCl (Group XK). During anaesthesia the same Doppler measurements were made. Compared with baseline values, psBFV obtained from CCA increased in Group P (P < 0.02) and insignificantly changed in Groups T and XK. psBFV measured from AA in Groups T and XK decreased as compared with baseline values. In the right kidney, psBFV in Group P and edBFV in Group T increased, whereas RI value in Groups T and XK decreased. In conclusion, comparing baseline values, propofol anaesthesia did not significantly alter RI measured from CCA and kidney and blood flow velocities measured from AA. The data suggest that propofol anaesthesia in rabbits results in minimal changes in Doppler parameters.

    Prevalence of PKD1gene mutation in cats in Turkey and pathogenesis of feline polycystic kidney disease

    Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is one of the most common hereditary diseases in cats, with high prevalence in Persian and Persian-related cats. PKD is caused mainly by an inherited autosomal dominant (AD) mutation, and animals may be asymptomatic for years. We screened 16 cats from various breeds exhibiting a renal abnormality by ultrasound examination and genotyped them for the c.10063C>A transversion on exon 29 of the polycystin-1 (PKD1) gene, by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Among these cats, a Siamese nuclear family of 4 cats with ancestral hereditary renal failure were screened by whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to determine novel variations in genes associated with both AD and autosomal recessive PKD in humans. During the study period, one cat died as a result of renal failure and was forwarded for autopsy. Additionally, we screened 294 cats asymptomatic for renal disease (Angora, Van, Persian, Siamese, Scottish Fold, Exotic Shorthair, British Shorthair, and mixed breeds) to determine the prevalence of the mutation in cats in Turkey. Ten of the symptomatic and 2 of the asymptomatic cats carried the heterozygous C -> A transversion, indicating a prevalence of 62.5% and 0.68%, respectively. In the WGS analysis of 4 cats in the Siamese nuclear family, novel variations were determined in the fibrocystin gene (PKHD1), which was not compatible with dominant inheritance of PKD.
