|
|
New Kennel Club DNA testing scheme for HUU in Dalmatian |
The Kennel Club has agreed a new DNA testing scheme for Hyperuricosuria (HUU) / Urate Stone Disorder (USD) in Dalmatian. Under this scheme, HUU test results can be sent by Laboklin to the Kennel Club to be recorded and published only if the submission and testing procedure complies with the following protocol:
- that dogs to be tested are microchipped and registered before the test sample is taken;
- that the test sample (whether buccal swab or EDTA blood sample or other) is taken by a veterinary surgeon or veterinary nurse who first confirms the microchip identity of the test subject and records both the microchip number and registration name on the sample container/package;
- that the sample is sent directly by the veterinary surgery to LABOKLIN.
Copies of all future test certificate results issued by LABOKLIN will only be recorded by the Kennel Club at this time provided they comply with the above protocols.
Please ensure that the veterinary surgeon or veterinary nurse taking the sample complete the vet section on the order form, sign it and stamp it, send it directly to Laboklin and ensure that there stamp is on the package / envelope containing the samples submitted. |

This test is part of the Official UK Kennel Club DNA Testing Scheme in Russian Black Terrier ( RBT ), Bulldog (English), Dalmatian, Large Munsterlander, and Hungarian Wirehaired Vizsla (Vizslak).
for UK registered dogs, Laboklin can send results of the tests which are part of the Official UK Kennel Club DNA testing scheme to the Kennel Club (KC) to be recorded and published
as part of the Kennel Club scheme. Results will only be recorded and published by the KC if the result report includes the dog’s
microchip or tattoo number along with either the dog’s registered name or registered number. Any test results that do not carry these identifying
features will not be recorded by the Kennel Club.
In order to ensure that test results are sent to the Kennel Club, customers must also sign the declaration section on the order form to give Laboklin permission to do so.
important:
When you sign the declaration, Laboklin will send the results to the KC on your behalf, and you do not need to send them to the KC yourself again to avoid unnecessary duplications.

The Disease |
Hyperuricosuria is characterized by elevated levels of uric acid in the urine. This disease predisposes dogs to form stones in their bladders or sometimes kidneys. The trait can occur in any breed but is most commonly found in the Dalmatian, Bulldog and Black Russian Terrier. The mutation was recently described in Spanish Waterdog (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26538670). Here at Laboklin we recently tested an Australian Shepherd as carrier of HUU but we have no information about its prevalence in this breed, and therefore testing recomended if your aussie is showing symptoms of the disease. |
|
|
|
|
Trait of Inheritance |
|
Hyperuricosuria is inherited as a simple autosomal recessive trait.

Genotype: N / N [ Homozygous normal ]
The dog is noncarrier of the mutant gene.
It is very unlikely that the dog will develop Hyperuricosuria / Urate Stones (HUU, SLC). The dog will never pass the mutation to its offspring, and therefore it can be bred to any other dog.
Carrier
Genotype: N / SLC2 [ Heterozygous ]
The dog carries one copy of the mutant gene and one
copy of the normal gene.
It is very unlikely that the dog will develop Hyperuricosuria / Urate Stones (HUU, SLC) but since it carries the mutant gene, it can pass it on to its offspring with the probability of 50%. Carriers should only be bred to clear dogs. Avoid breeding carrier to carrier because 25% of their offspring is expected to be affected (see table above)
Affected
Genotype: SLC2 / SLC2 [ Homozygous mutant ]
The dog carries two copies of the mutant gene and
therefore it will pass the mutant gene to its entire offspring.

The Disease |
 |
 |
 |
The cataract is one of the most common diseases in dogs and a hereditary form has already been described in 100 breeds. In addition to a genetic epidemiology, eye injuries, metabolic disorders
(including diabetes) or nutritional deficiencies may also lead to cataracts. The disease leads to blindness by a clouding of the lens. In the Boston Terrier, a distinction is made between two forms: the early form occurs at the age of a few months, always progressive, and ends in complete blindness, while the late form occurs after three years of age and expresses a highly variable
course and severity of disease. The same genetic variant, as seen in the early form in the Boston Terrier, results in hereditary cataracts in Staffordshire Bull Terriers. Since this form is inherited autosomal recessive in both breeds, genetic testing allows for the determination of the genetic status, and thereby selective breeding. * test carried out by partner lab |

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;
