The Disease |
 |
 |
Progressive retinal atrophy (PRA) occurs in many breeds. The mutation responsible for this disease has already been identified in a number of breeds, DNA tests have been developed to enable breeders to avoid breeding affected dogs. PRA in Papillon and Phalène was first described back in 1995. With continued research the mutation that causes PRA in Papillon and Phalène has recently been identified and a test is now available at Laboklin. |
|
|
|
|
Description |
|
The onset of disease and the severity of the symptoms vary greatly. The mode of inheritance is autosomal recessive. LABOKLIN now offers a genetic test for PRA in these breeds. It should be noted, that there are other forms of PRA with different genetic causes.

The Disease |
We are pleased to announce that Laboklin obtained an exclusive European License to perform this important genetic tes from Vet Gen LCC the owner of the European patentt.
Von Willebrand disease (vWD) is probably the most common inherited bleeding disorder in dogs. It is caused by lack of von Willebrand factor which is a protein that plays a key role in the blood clotting process resulting in prolonged bleeding. The disorder occurs in varying degrees of severity ranging from trivial bleeding to excessive life threatening haemorrhages. |
|
|
|
|
Clinical Signs |
Symptoms include spontaneous bleeding from the nose, gum and other mucous membranes. Excessive bleeding occurs after an injury, trauma or a surgery. Often dogs don’t show clinical signs until something starts the bleeding, such as nail trimming, teething, spaying, sterilizing, tail docking, cropping or other causes. Bleeding also occurs internally in the stomach, intestines, urinary tracts, the genitals and / or into the joints.
Type I von Willebrand's disease is considered relatively mild when compared to Type II in Scotch Terriers and Shetland Sheep Dogs and Type III in the German Wirehaired pointer, Type II and Type III are much more severe than type I. |

|

Description |
|
The Mutation-based Test and its Advantages
A new DNA test has now been developed for the type I vWD.
Genetic testing makes it possible to identify whether a dog is clear, carrier or affected. This is vital to eliminate this condition from the breed within 2-3 generations.
The new DNA test can identify the responsible mutation directly.
This DNA test can be done at any age and unambiguously classifies dogs into affected, carriers and clear. The test enables breeders to eliminate the vWD disease gene from the Poodles. Carriers can be clinically normal because of a low penetrance or expressivity of the disease. This information is essential for controlling this disorder in the breed.
Breeders and owners should view vWD as a significant health risk and strive to get rid of the mutated gene. The discovery of the mutation, and the recent development of a DNA test, now provides just that opportunity.
|
|
|
|
|
Trait of Inheritance |
|
vWD Type I is transmitted as autosomal incomplete dominant trait . Dogs with vWD Type 1 may experience mild to moderate bleeding tendencies, however, not all dogs with the mutation will exhibit symptoms

Clear
Genotype: N / N [ Homozygous normal ]
The dog is noncarrier of the mutant gene.
It is very unlikely that the dog will develop von Willebrand disease Type I (vWD I). The dog will never pass the mutation to its offspring, and therefore it can be bred to any other dog.
Carrier
Genotype: N / vWDI [ Heterozygous ]
The dog carries one copy of the mutant gene and one
copy of the normal gene.
These dogs may exhibit mild to moderate bleeding tendencies, but not all will show clinical signs.
Affected
Genotype: vWDI / vWDI [ Homozygous mutant ]
The dog carries two copies of the mutant gene and
therefore it will pass the mutant gene to its entire offspring.
Dogs with two copies of the mutation are more likely to show more severe symptoms.

The Disease |
 |
Neuroaxonal Dystrophy in Spanish Water Dogs is an uncharacterized juvenile-onset genetic disorder that affect Spanish Water Dogs. Affected dogs exhibits various neurological deficits including gait abnormalities and behavioral deficits.
Symptoms include slowly progressing neurological signs starting between six and eleven months of age. Owners of affected dogs reported gait abnormalities, behavioral changes (dullness, nervousness, vocalization) and incontinence alone or in combination with uncontrolled defecation. Mild head tilt, generalized mild cerebellar ataxia with hypermetria of the thoracic limbs and absent to depressed patellar reflexed. Additionally, affected dogs displayed varying degrees of compulsory pacing, proprioceptive deficits, decreased menace, visual deficits, positional nystagmus and decreased muscle tone.
- in Lagotto Romagnolo and Spanish Water dog, the disease is caused by a mutation in the TECPR2 gene, and
- in Papillon, the disease is caused by a mutation in the PLA2G6 gene; and
- in Rottweiler, the disease is caused by a mutation in the VPS11 gene, and
- in Miniature American Shepherd the disease is also caused by another different mutation.

The Disease |
|
Canine degenerative myelopathy (also known as chronic degenerative radiculomyelopathy) is a progressive disease of the spinal cord in older dogs. The disease has an insidious onset typically between 7 and 14 years of age. It begins with a loss of coordination (ataxia) in the hind limbs. As of July 15, 2008 the mutated gene responsible for DM has been found present in 43 breeds including German Shepherds, Boxers, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and both breeds of Welsh Corgis. The disease is chronic and progressive, and resulting in paralysis.
|
|
|
|
|
Clinical Signs |
|
Degenerative myelopathy initially affects the back legs and causes muscle weakness and loss, and lack of coordination. These cause a staggering effect that may appear to be arthritis. The dog may drag one or both rear paws when it walks. This dragging can cause the nails of one foot to be worn down. The condition may lead to extensive paralysis of the back legs. As the disease progresses, the animal may display symptoms such as incontinence and has considerable difficulties with both balance and walking. If allowed to progress, the animal will show front limb involvement and extensive muscle atrophy. Eventually cranial nerve or respiratory muscle involvement necessitates euthanasia.
Progression of the disease is generally slow but highly variable. The animal could be crippled within a few months, or may survive up to three years
|
|
|
| |
|
Trait of Inheritance |
|
Tow alleles are invloved in Degenerative Myelopathy, A and G, therefore a test result can be A/A, A/G, or G/G.
Mode of inheritance is autosomal recessive with variable penetrance;

The Disease |
Factor VII deficiency is a mild bleeding disorder caused by lack of factor VII (proconvertin) which plays a role in the blood clotting system. Affected dogs bruise easily and nosebleeds maybe seen. There is often prolonged bleeding after surgery or trauma and, in the cases of major surgical procedures or trauma, bleeding maybe severe.
The condition may go unnoticed for long time and discovered only when a surgery is performed or if the dog had an accident, in both cases increased bleeding will be noticed which can be difficult to control. Your vet will suspect a bleeding disorder.
Disease can be managed with the infusion of Frozen Fresh Plasma (FFP). In case of surgery , blood transfusion should be considered.
Please note that Scottish Deerhound can also suffer aother bleeding disorder known as Delayed postoperative hemorrhage (DEPOH) and in fact it is possible for a Scottish Deerhound to be affected with both problems. |
|
|
|
|
Description |
|
Recently, the mutation responsible for this condition has been identified by Dr Urs Giger and researchers at the University of Pennsylvania. The test is now available at LABOKLIN. Factor VII deficiency follows a recessive trait of inheritance, the test identify a dog as affected (2 copies of the abnormal gene), clear (0 copies of the abnormal gene) or carrier (1 copy of the abnormal gene). Only affected dogs with two copies of the affected gene will develop the disease. Since this is am autosomal recessive condition, carrier dogs will not develop the disease but will pass the mutation to their offspring.
