Informazioni generali
Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) is a large group of genetic diseases in which the retina gradually degenerates over time, causing a progressive loss of vision. In the Hungarian Puli, a mutation in the Bardet-Biedl Syndrome 4 (BBS4) gene was found associated with PRA. BBS4 is known to cause Bardet-Biedl Syndrom (BBS) which causes a PRA phenotype.
Caratteristiche cliniche
I segni clinici includono cecità notturna e perdita della visione periferica. Oltre alla degenerazione retinica, nel BBS4 i cani affetti obesità e la flagella spermatoza colpita sono osservati anche come sintomi.
