Relative frequency of inherited retinal dystrophies in Brazil [PDF]
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]
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]
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.

The genetic landscape of inherited retinal dystrophies in Arabs
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
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
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

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]
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 ...
