Usually, exposure causes some level of irritation. However, these substances generally have no taste or odor which increases the chance of larger amounts being ingested by a dog. At high levels of consumption, alkalis become a greater danger for dogs. Bleach, oven and drain/pipe cleaners, hair relaxers, and lye are examples of alkaline products ...
Ciclosporin is indicated to treat and prevent graft-versus-host disease in bone marrow transplantation and to prevent rejection of kidney, heart, and liver transplants.

Mycophenolic acid acts as a non-competitive, selective, and reversible inhibitor of inosine-5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), which is a key enzyme in the de novo guanosine nucleotide synthesis. In contrast to other human cell types, lymphocytes B and T are very dependent on this process.
The reason some dogs develop kidney failure following ingestion of grapes and raisins is not known. [3] Types of grapes involved include both seedless and seeded, store-bought and homegrown, and grape pressings from wineries.

Dogs are among the animals taking part in research to determine how much animals know about impending natural disasters
mycophenolic acid O-acyl-glucuronide + H 2 O mycophenolate + D-glucuronate This liver enzyme deglucuronidates mycophenolic acid O -acyl-glucuronide. Mycophenolic acid acyl-glucuronide (AcMPAG) is an important product in the metabolism of mycophenolic acid, and ABHD10 is the major esterase responsible for the AcMPAG and probenecid acyl ...
