Description

Alaskan Husky Encephalopathy (AHE) is a severe neurodegenerative disease unique to Alaskan Huskies. AHE causes neurological deficits such as seizures and loss of coordination, and is ultimately fatal. The disorder is caused by a recessive mutation to the gene SLC19A3. A related variant of the disorder also occurs in the Yorkshire Terrier, where it is known as Juvenile-Onset Necrotizing Encephalopathy.
