Sunday 30th June 2013

 

As of today Leo is  the ninth ranked Tibetan Terrier in all breed points in the United States of America.  Not bad for only six shows, plus the fact that all of the other top ten dogs are Grand Champions and he still needs one point for his championship title.  I am so proud of my handsome boy, and very grateful to Susan and Gary Carr for looking after him so well.  I am also indebted to Pat Tempest for allowing Leo to come to Ireland to join the Siddhartha Crew.

Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) In Tibetan Terriers

Geneticists at the Kennel Club Genetics Centre at the Animal Health Trust have discovered a mutation that causes a form of progressive retinal atrophy (PRA) in Tibetan Terriers. We are calling this form of the disease PRA3 to distinguish it from other, genetically distinct, forms of PRA that are caused by different mutations, including the previously reported RCD4 mutation that is also known to cause PRA in some Tibetan Terriers. Together the PRA3 and RCD4 mutations account for approximately half of Tibetan Terrier PRA cases that we investigated during our research, although the number of samples from dogs with PRA was small and these proportions might not be representative of the wider population. During the latter half of 2013 the AHT will collaborate with the Kennel Club (KC) to screen a random subset of KC registered Tibetan Terriers to determine the frequency of both mutations more accurately. The mutation(s) that cause PRA in the other affected Tibetan Terriers remain(s) unknown and cannot therefore be detected by any DNA test at present.

As for RCD4, the PRA3 mutation is recessive, meaning a dog needs to inherit two copies of the mutation to be clinically affected with PRA. PRA3 is a late-onset condition and clinical signs can usually be detected by an ophthalmologist from 4-7 years of age. The onset of RCD4 is variable, but is usually around 10 years of age. Any Tibetan terrier that has 2 copies of either the PRA-3 or RCD4 mutation will develop PRA, assuming it lives long enough to do so.

A DNA test for PRA3 will become available from the Animal Health Trust July 8th 2013

Full details will be made available on our website shortly:

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FROM ANIMAL HEALTH TRUST REGARDING PRA

from Cathryn Mellersh PhD
Head of Canine Genetics

New PRA DNA Test Available to Tibetan Terriers from 8th July, 2013
http://www.ahtdnatesting.co.uk

I am very pleased to be able to tell you that geneticists from the Kennel Club Genetics Centre at the Animal Health Trust have identified a mutation that causes progressive retinal atrophy (PRA) in the Tibetan Spaniel and Tibetan Terrier.

A DNA test based on this mutation will become available July 8th 2013.

The mutation was identified by Louise Downs, as part of her PhD studies, and represents the culmination of over a decade of investigation by Louise and other members of the research team into this condition.

There are many people I would like to thank for their contributions towards this success, including all the owners and ophthalmologists who have contributed DNA and information from their dogs & patients to the project and the PetPlan Charitable Trust, the Kennel Club Charitable Trust and all the Breed Clubs and individuals who have supported the research financially.
