Affected dogs show <strong>regurgitations caused by mega-esophagus and inspiratory dyspnea caused by laryngeal paralysis<\/strong> at a young age (< 2 years). In the previously described cases, affected dogs have been alive more than 3 years following diagnosis which indicates a long survival rate. Typical pathological findings are variable thickness of the myelin sheath (so-called \u201ctomacula\u201d) around the axons of peripheral nerves and areas of segmental demyelination. The described variant has not been found in other breeds than Miniature Schnauzers.<br>In the breed <strong>Lancashire Heeler<\/strong>, a genetic variant of the ITPR3 gene has been found to be associated with CMT. Due to a severe developmental enamel defect, affected dogs show features of <strong>amelogenesis imperfecta, including severe yellow to brown discoloration, enamel hypoplasia and abrasion leading to dentin exposure<\/strong>. The second common symptom of the disease is a <strong>subclinical peripheral neuropathy<\/strong>. Therefore, affected dogs show normal locomotion and activity levels, but electrodiagnostic examinations emerge neurogenic changes in muscle, especially in muscles distal to elbow and knee joints, consistent with demyelinating neuropathy.<\/p><table class=\"tx-laboklinleistung-table contenttable contenttable-2\" style=\"margin-top: 35px;\"><tr><td class=\"td-0\"><strong>Method<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"td-1\"><p class=\"bodytext\">TaqMan SNP assay (Miniature Schnauzer);<br>sequencing (Lancashire Heeler)<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"td-0\"><strong>Breed list<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"td-1\"><p class=\"bodytext\">Lancashire Heeler, Miniature Schnauzer<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"td-0\"><strong>Heredity<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"td-1\"><p class=\"bodytext\">autosomal recessive<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"td-0\"><strong>Duration<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"td-1\"><p class=\"bodytext\">3 - 5 days after arrival of the sample in the lab (Miniature Schnauzer);<br>1 - 2 weeks after arrival of the sample in the lab (Lancashire Heeler)<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy (CMT)LABOKLIN Service ID: 8538Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy (CMT) is a heterogeneous group of inherited peripheral neuropathies affecting the peripheral sensory and motor nerves.
