| Research Abstract |
Canine progressive myelomalacia (PM) is a death-dealing disease which happen in succession to acute thoracolumbar intervertebral disc hernia (IVDH). Therefore, in order to determine a treatment policy, it is important to evaluate a possibility that in early stages of IVDH comes worse at PM. However, the sure factor for evaluating the possibility of PM generating does not exist. In this study, the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity in serum of acute thoracolumbar IVDH dogs was evaluated. As a result, the serum MMP activity of PM case was increased than that of the healthy dog significantly. The MMP activity in serum of PM case was also increased than that of IVDH cases without deep pain (Grade V; GV) significantly. From these results, a possibility that the MMP activity value in serum would be applicable as an evaluation factor of PM generating was suggested.
