Relative frequency of inherited retinal dystrophies in Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Among the Brazilian population, the frequency rates of inherited retinal dystrophies and their causative genes are underreported. To increase the knowledge about these dystrophies in our population, we retrospectively studied the medical records of 1,246

Different Phenotypes in Pseudodominant Inherited Retinal Dystrophies [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Retinal dystrophies (RD) are a group of Mendelian disorders caused by rare genetic variations leading to blindness. A pathogenic variant may manifest in both dominant or recessive mode and clinical and genetic heterogeneity makes it difficult to ...

Retinal Inflammation, Cell Death and Inherited Retinal Dystrophies [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are a group of retinal disorders that cause progressive and severe loss of vision because of retinal cell death, mainly photoreceptor cells. IRDs include retinitis pigmentosa (RP), the most common IRD. IRDs present a genetic and clinical heterogeneity that makes it difficult to achieve proper treatment.

Updating the Genetic Landscape of Inherited Retinal Dystrophies [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD) are a group of diseases characterized by the loss or dysfunction of photoreceptors and a high genetic and clinical heterogeneity.

The genetic landscape of inherited retinal dystrophies in Arabs

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2023
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are a major cause of vision loss. Altogether are highly heterogeneous genotypically and phenotypically, exhibiting substantial differences worldwide. To shed more light on these conditions, we investigated the genetic

Gene discovery and prevalence in inherited retinal dystrophies

open access: yesComptes Rendus - Biologies, 2014
Inherited retinal dystrophies are Mendelian neurodegenerative conditions classified as pigmentary retinopathies, macular dystrophies and others. Over a 21-year period, from 1990 to 2011, we have screened in Montpellier 107 genes in 609 families and have identified a causal mutation in 68.5% of them.

Choroidal Thickness in Different Types of Inherited Retinal Dystrophies

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmic & Vision Research, 2020
Purpose: To compare the choroidal thickness among eyes with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), Stargardt disease, Usher syndrome, cone-rod dystrophy, and healthy eyes of sex- and age-matched individuals. Methods: In this comparative study, 503 eyes with RP

The First Homozygote Mutation c.499G>T (Asp167Tyr) in the RPE65 Gene Encoding Retinoid Isomerohydrolase Causing Retinal Dystrophy

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022
RPE65, an abundant membrane-associated protein present in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), is a vital retinoid isomerase necessary for regenerating 11-cis-retinaldehyde from all-trans retinol in the visual cycle.

INHERITED RETINAL DYSTROPHY IN THE RAT [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1962
Retinal dystrophies, known in man, dog, mouse, and rat, involve progressive loss of photoreceptor cells with onset during or soon after the developmental period. Functional (electroretinogram), chemical (rhodopsin analyses) and morphological (light and electron microscopy) data obtained in the rat indicated two main processes: (a) overproduction of ...
