Miniature Bull Terrier — Laryngeal paralysis, RAPGEF6-related (hereditary; OMIA-verified breed predisposition)

Source: first-hand OMIA (University of Sydney) breed-specific hereditary-disorder record, saved verbatim to source_file; every claim below is a C1 byte-substring of it.

Claims

  • Breed: Miniature Bull Terrier (Dog)
  • Disorder:
  • Mode of inheritance: Multifactorial
  • Clin feat: Hadji Rasouliha et al. (2019): Laryngeal paralysis (LP) is the inability to abduct the arytenoid cartilages during inspiration, resulting in a partial to complete airway obstruction and consequent respiratory distress. Different forms of LP with varying age of onset exist in dogs. Hereditary early onset forms were reported in several dog breeds. In most breeds, hereditary LP is associated with other neurologic pathologies.
  • Defect: yes
  • Prevalence: Hadji Rasouliha et al. (2019): The insertion allele was only found in Miniature Bull Terriers and Bull Terriers. It was absent from 1000 control dogs of other dog breeds.
