Claims
Breed: Domestic Shorthair (Cat)Disorder:Mode of inheritance: Probably autosomal recessiveSummary: Kiener et al. (2023) investigated 2 domestic shorthair kittens with sebaceous gland dysplasia. Clinical and histopathological changes were similar but not identical to previously reported cases of sebaceous gland dysplasia in cats (Yager et al. 2012, a href=../../../../../../OMIA001710/9685/OMIA:001710-9685/a : Sebaceous gland dysplasia in Felis catus) and genetic analysis suggests genetic heterogeneity of this phenotype.Clin feat: Kiener et al. (2023) investigated two 4-month-old sibling domestic short haired kittens with dry dark debris around the eyes, nose, and ears, dark crusting on the legs and a thin poor hair coat.Defect: yesPathology: Kiener et al. (2023) Skin biopsies revealed abnormal sebaceous gland morphology with lack of normal sebocyte arrangement and differentiation. Hair follicles had a distorted silhouette, interpreted as a change secondary to the observed sebaceous gland dysplasia.

Filtering for variants that were present in both kittens but absent from the control genomes revealed a homozygous missense variant in SOAT1 [omia.variant:1546], encoding sterol O-acyltransferase 1.
