Samoyeds can be affected by basement membrane disease of the kidneys. It is inherited through the X chromosome and is therefore more severe in affected male dogs. Findings in male dogs include the presence of protein and glucose in the urine and the inability to concentrate urine, and progression to kidney failure by the age of 9 months and death by 16 months.

Cats can tolerate transplantation from unrelated cats, but must be supported with immunosuppressive drugs for the rest of their lives. When the transplanted kidney is implanted in the recipient the original kidneys are usually left in place. [1] There are currently ten centers in the world that offer kidney transplants for cats. Most are in the US.
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.

The kidneys are susceptible to toxic injury, since toxins are reabsorbed in the tubules along with most of the filtered substances.

Chronic kidney disease is characterised by loss of function of the kidney tissues ...

Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are a model mammalian cell line used in biomedical research. MDCK cells are used for a wide variety of cell biology studies including cell polarity , cell-cell adhesions (termed adherens junctions ), collective cell motility, toxicity studies, [ 1 ] as well as responses to growth factors.
But you can spot from a mile away the ads that will be deemed "controversial" after the game, and this is one of them, just by its mere existence. (B) Volkswagen, “An American Love Story”
