Informations générales

Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL) is the name referring to a wide array of degenerative neurological conditions which cause progressive nerve damage, resulting in a loss of mobility and vision, and ultimately death. This variant, known as Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis 7 (NCL 7) is caused by a recessive mutation to the gene MFSD8, and occurs in the Chinese Crested Dog and Chihuahua.

Caractéristiques cliniques

Affected dogs show neurological symptoms that can include compulsive licking, disorientation, blindness, anxiety, excessive sleep and hyper-responsiveness to stimuli. These symptoms tend to present within the first year of life. The disease is progressive, and euthanasia due to poor quality of life is likely necessary.
