Specifika chovu australských ovčáků v České republice
Cikrytová, Kristýna
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to make literary study focused on the Australian Shepherd. This work contains the history of the breed in the world and in the Czech Republic. Futhermore, the work discusses about conditions neccesary for breeding. It also desribes the use of the breed. The next part desribes the most common diseases and their characteristics. At the end of the thesis, there are summarized statistics of hip dysplasia and elbow dysplasia.
RNA analysis of nasopharyngeal swab
Vítková, Magdalena ; Steiner Mrázová, Lenka (advisor) ; Hojný, Jan (referee)
The nasopharyngeal swab is a very heterogeneous easily available sample which is used to diagnose infectious diseases of the upper respiratory tract. Recently, the swab is increasingly used in biomedical research. The nasopharynx is the place of contact between the external and internal surrounding of an individual and the first immune response to the intrusion of pathogens. Mucosal damage initiates inflammatory and regenerative processes. The nasopharyngeal mucosa is permanently inhabited by a large group of microorganisms which influence the process of the disease. Therefore, the nasopharyngeal swab is a very rich source of host cells and its microbiome. The introduction of the method of massive parallel sequencing, has developed and automated methods for DNA and RNA isolation. It also led to a significant reduction in the cost of their analysis and provides an information about the host genome, the presence of microorganisms and the current level of expression of host and pathogen genes as well. Thanks to the introduction of the single cell sequencing method, it is possible to monitor the interactions of individual cell types under physiological conditions and during the immune response. The aim of this work is to provide an overview of the biological function of the nasopharynx, its cellular...
Dědičná onemocnění očí u australských ovčáků
Žaludová, Petra
This thesis focuses eye diseases of Australian Shepherds. Full history of the breed is described, its origins, the most common illnesses and brief characteristics. Selected eye diseases are described along with their symptoms and their impacts on individual subjects, along with their genes and mutations. This thesis also includes available genetic tests that are able to detect high-risk genotypes causing disease.
Geneticky determinované choroby u border kolií
Trýznová, Alena
The thesis deals with the description of genetically determined diseases affecting the Border Collie breed. The described diseases include Collie Eye Anomaly, Trapped Neutrophile Syndrome and Ceroid Lipofuscinosis. The individual sections describe their symptoms, history, therapy, diagnostics and genetic dispositions of individual diseases, genetic testing methods and numbers of tested individuals. The thesis deals with diseases that could not be diagnosed genetically until recently; however, thanks to developing methods of molecular genetics, they are commonly available to breeders and owners at present.
