ANTAGENE provides a certificate displaying the genetic status of a dog or a cat
Retinal detachments
Description: Retinal pigment epithelial dysplasia causing localized multifocal retinal detachments
Symptoms : In the mild form, no vision disorders are reported despite the abnormal retina. In the severe form, lesions can lead to blindness
Age of onset : Before 4 months old
Frequency : Not available
Gene involved : BEST1
Tested mutation : c.73C>T
Transmission : Autosomal Recessive
Patent : _
Notes : _
Corny Feet
Description: Thickening and hardening of footpads resulting from abnormal proliferation of epidermal cells.
Symptoms : Horny protrusions on all footpads, fissures and cracks possibly causing great pain and therefore reduced mobility of the dog.
Age of onset : Between 4 and 9 months old
Frequency : 11% carriers in French population
Gene involved :
Tested mutation :
Transmission : Autosomal Recessive
Patent :
Notes : The research was led by the team of Dr. Catherine André (CNRS of Rennes, France) in collaboration with Antagene.
ANTAGENE performs genetic identification and parentage verification for a puppy and a kitten
ANTAGENE produces an unique genetic fingerprint of a dog or a cat
ANTAGENE is involved into discovering the causes of hereditary diseases and developp new DNA screening tests
Hip dysplasia
Speciality Orthopaedics
Description : Developmental disorder of hip resulting in a joint instability
Symptoms : Arthrosis, gait problems unrelated to the degree of dysplasia
Age of onset : -
Examination : Radiography
Progress : Undergoing sampling
Prélèvements pour participer à la recherche : Blood sample in EDTA tube (2-4 mL)
Documents to be attached to samples : Clinical certificate, Sampling certificate, Copy of pedigree
Collaboration : Dr C. André (CNRS of Rennes, France)
