Development of a novel knockout model of retinitis pigmentosa using Pde6b-knockout Long–Evans rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Although rats with melanin-pigmentated retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells are physiologically more appropriate models for human eye research than their albino counterparts, reliable models from the former strain are not available to study retinal ...

An n‐of‐1 gene‐directed drug repurposing trial for an ultrarare genetic condition

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Gain‐of‐function (GoF) variants in the KCNC1 potassium channel subunit gene (Kv3.1) cause motor/cognitive delays and hypotonia and have been associated with seizures. Fluoxetine has inhibitory effects on Kv3.1. However, open‐label nonrandomized administration is insufficient to guide clinical decision‐making in ultrarare conditions ...

Evidence of the neuroprotective role of citicoline in glaucoma patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The glaucomatous disease is currently considered a disease involving ocular and visual brain structures. This new approach to glaucoma introduces the possibility of inducing an improvement by means of a pharmacological approach similar to that used in ...

Identification and functional validation of a novel disease‐causing variant in the noncoding region of NYX

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders, with ~30% of cases remaining genetically unsolved. Complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB) is a subtype of IRD, usually associated with reduced visual acuity, nystagmus and high myopia.

A spatially specified systems pharmacology therapy for axonal recovery after injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
There are no known drugs or drug combinations that promote substantial central nervous system axonal regeneration after injury. We used systems pharmacology approaches to model pathways underlying axonal growth and identify a four-drug combination that ...

The Visual Mechanisms of Tenebrio Molitor: Changes in the Electro-Retinogram as Function of the Stimulus Duration [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
The ERG complex of the compound eye of the yellow mealworm bettle Tenebrimolitor (L.) separates into two components with stimulus durations of longer than 100 ms. These are the ‘on’ and the ‘off’ effects.

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.

Detection of early age-related macular degeneration using novel functional parameters of the focal cone electroretinogram [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The focal cone electroretinogram is a sensitive marker for macular disease, but have we unlocked its full potential? Typically assessment of waveform parameters is subjective and focuses on a small number of locations (e.g. the a-wave).

Decline of Visual Function and Risk of Legal Blindness With Age in RPGR‐Associated Retinal Degeneration: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This retrospective multicenter longitudinal analysis analysed the loss trajectory of best recorded visual acuity (BRVA) and Goldmann visual field (GVF) in RPGR‐associated retinal degeneration (RPGR‐RD). Methods Patients with genetically confirmed RPGR‐RD were classified into rod‐cone (RC), cone/cone‐rod (CR) and female‐carrier ...
