Generell informasjon
Alpha-Mannosidosis (AMD) is a severe metabolic disease that affects the central nervous system, resulting in loss of coordination, tremors and ultimately death. The disorder is caused by a recessive mutation to the gene MAN2B1, and is found in the Doberman.
Kliniske egenskaper
Affected dogs present with symptoms of neurological disease as early as 2 months after birth. Signs include clumsiness and falling over, ataxia (loss of coordination), strabismus (mis-aligned eyes) and nosebleeds. As the disease progresses, the affected dog may altered and possibly aggressive behaviour, compulsive circling, and apparent hallucinations. Euthanasia on humane grounds is likely to be necessary within a year of onset.
