The objective was to assess whether the breed retains enough genetic diversity to correct the genotypic and phenotypic abnormalities associated with poor health, to allow for the elimination of deleterious recessive mutations, or to make further phenotypic changes in body structure or coat.

Further phenotypic characterization revealed that LKB1 is required for the differentiation and maintenance of two NCC - derivatives, Schwann cells and the ENS. Using a model of neural crest stem cell line, we demonstrated that Lkb1 is key for neural crest - derived glial commitment.
