(2018):Rottweiler NAD was first reported in the early 1980s and is characterized by a young adult age of onset with mild progression of clinical signs, typically including postural deficits, ataxia, hypermetria, intention tremor and nystagmus. Some clinical signs will develop at an older age (3-5 years old), these include head bobbing, head tremor, nystagmus and menace deficit (Chrisman, 1992). [IT thanks DVM student Hedia Chan for contributions to this entry in April 2022]`\n- `Defect: yes`\n- `Pathology: Lucot et al. (2018): “Clinical signs reflect the predominantly sensory topographical distribution of pathology within the central nervous system, (CNS) consisting of mild cerebellar atrophy, large number of axonal spheroids, and demyelination of axons in the vestibular nucleus, lateral and medial geniculate nuclei sensory nucleus of the trigeminal nerve, gracilis and cuneate nuclei, and in the spinal cord dorsal horn.”`\n## Associated gene(s)\nDerived from OMIA database dump (omia.xml, local); structured field, not verbatim prose.

(2018): \"Whole-genome sequencing of two histopathologically confirmed canine NAD cases and 98 dogs unaffected with NAD revealed a homozygous missense mutation within the Vacuolar Protein Sorting 11 (VPS11) gene (g.14777774T>C; p.H835R) that was associated with the phenotype\".\n\n## Evidence (references)\nDerived from OMIA database dump (omia.xml, local); structured field, not verbatim prose.
