Genome-wide association analysis of idiopathic epilepsy in the Belgian shepherd
Abstract Background Idiopathic epilepsy (IE) is a common neurological disorder in the domestic dog, and is defined as repeated seizure activity having no identifiable underlying cause. Some breeds, such as the Belgian shepherd dog, have a greater prevalence of the disorder. Previous studies in this and other breeds have identified ADAM23 as a gene that confers risk of IE, although additional loci are known to exist. The present study sought to identify additional loci that influence IE in the Belgian shepherd dog. Results Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) revealed a significant associatio... Mehr ...
