Unlocking the Longevity Secret: Golden Retrievers Hold the Key
TL;DR Summary
A study conducted by researchers from the University of California, Davis, has found that golden retrievers possess a gene called HER4, which is associated with a longer life. The study compared the DNA of over 300 golden retrievers and found that those with certain variants of HER4 lived longer. This gene is also found in humans and has been linked to the rapid growth of cancer cells. The findings could have implications for cancer research in both dogs and humans.
