Claims
Breed: Labrador Retriever (Dog)Disorder:Mode of inheritance: Autosomal recessiveClin feat: Four affected Labrador retriever puppies ... were evaluated for small stature, poor weight gain, bow legged stance, poor suckling, and weakness. In the first week 4 pups required supplemental tube feeding due to poor weight gain, and difficulties in prehension of food and swallowing. One of these 4 pups died during the first week and another pup was euthanized at 2.5 weeks of age. At the time of euthanasia at 6 weeks of age, body weights of the two remaining affected pups were half that of the normal pups (1.3 and 1.4 kg compared to 2.7–2.9 kg). ... Serum CK activities were markedly elevated in all affected pups ranging from 10,587 to 23,638 IU/L (reference 59–895 IU/L). (Shelton et al. 2021)Defect: yesPathology: Histopathology of skeletal muscle cryosections ... showed degenerative and regenerative changes consistent with a dystrophic phenotype (Shelton et al. 2021).
