Informazioni generali
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.
Caratteristiche cliniche
La perdita visiva precoce che porta alla completa cecità retinica può essere osservata nei cuccioli. Nelle fasi successive della vita è possibile raggiungere uno stato vegetativo seguito dall'assenza di attività cerebrale.
