A large deletion in RPGR causes XLPRA in Weimaraner dogs

Independent origin and restricted distribution of RPGR deletions causing XLPRA.

Canine X-linked progressive retinal atrophy (XLPRA) is an inherited blinding disorder caused by mutations in the ORF15 of the RPGR gene and homolog to human retinitis pigmentosa 3 (RP3). The disease is observed in 2 variations, XLPRA1 in Siberian husky and samoyed and XLPRA2 derived from mongrel dogs. A third, neutral, deletion has been described in red wolves. Haplotype analysis of the 633-kbp...

A deletion mutation causes hemophilia B in Lhasa Apso dogs.

Hemophilia B is a bleeding disorder caused by a deficiency of clotting factor IX (FIX). A colony of FIX deficient Lhasa Apso dogs has been established and the molecular basis of hemophilia B has been determined. The plasma factor IX levels were < 1% of normal canine levels in affected dogs. A complex deletion mutation at nucleotides 772-777 was found when hepatocyte cDNA from a hemophilia B dog...

Ceacam1 deletion causes vascular alterations in large vessels.

Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) promotes hepatic insulin clearance and endothelial survival. However, its role in the morphology of macrovessels remains unknown. Mice lacking Ceacam1 (Cc1-/-) exhibit hyperinsulinemia, which causes insulin resistance and fatty liver. With increasing evidence of an association among hyperinsulinemia, fatty liver disease, and at...
