Informations générales
Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL) is the name for a wide array of degenerative neurological conditions which cause progressive nerve damage, resulting in a loss of mobility and vision, and ultimately death. The variant analysed in this test, Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis 5 (NCL5 or CLN5), is caused by a recessive mutation to the gene CLN5. This variant is found in the Australian Cattle Dog and the Border Collie. A related variant is found in the Golden Retriever.
Caractéristiques cliniques
Une perte visuelle précoce conduisant à une cécité rétinienne complète peut être observée chez les chiots. Dans les stades ultérieurs de la vie un état végétatif peut être atteint suivi de l’absence de l’activité cérébrale.
