OMIA:001882-9615 : Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in Canis lupus familiaris (dog)

Categories: Behaviour / neurological phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 143465 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Disease-related: yes

Species-specific name: Activity, impulsivity and inattention

Species-specific symbol: ADHD

Markers: Hejjas et al. (2007; Mammalian Genome) reported tentative findings of associations between polymorphisms in canine DRD4, DBH, and DAT genes and attention deficit in Belgian Tervuerens. Hejjas et al. (2007; Animal Genetics) provided stronger evidence for association between the DRD4 gene and the "activity-impulsivity dimension of the dog-ADHD Rating Scale" in 'police' German Shepherd dogs. Kubinyi et al. (2012) reported similar associations with polymorphism at the TH gene in German Shepherd dogs. Wan et al. (2013) found similar associations for DRD4 and TH in Siberian Huskies.
