Large Animals as Models for Human Diseases, Volume 189 in the Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science series, highlights new advances in the field, with this new volume presenting interesting chapters on a variety of important topics, including Sheep as a model for neuroendocrinology research, Relevance of dog as a model for urologic diseases, Relevance of lactocrine hypothesis to human maternal programming of development, Comparative aspects of embryo implantation, Pig as an animal model for obesity, Canine models of cancer, Bovine model for human ovarian diseases, Mutations in G protein-coupled receptors in large animals: Modeling human diseases, and more.

Dr. Ya-Xiong Tao is currently Professor of Physiology at Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine in Auburn, Alabama, USA. He has been working on several G protein-coupled receptors, including gonadotropin receptors regulating reproduction, and melanocortin receptors regulating energy and glucose homeostasis. He has published extensively in peer-reviewed biomedical journals and obtained funding for his research from National Institutes of Health, American Diabetes Association and American Heart Association, among others. He has delivered numerous lectures at universities and research institutes in USA, Canada, China, India, and Mexico. He has edited ten volumes, including seven volumes in Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science.
