Dental Skeletal Retinal Anomaly [Cane Corso Type]

DSRA (Dental-Skeletal-Retinal Anomaly) is a genetic condition in the Cane Corso breed, causing abnormal development of bones and teeth, which may become brittle, discolored, or translucent. The condition progresses to retinal degeneration, leading to vision loss. This disorder is linked to a mutation in the MIA3 gene, responsible for producing a protein crucial for exporting collagen and other proteins.
