Early-Onset Progressive Degeneration of the Area Centralis in RPE65-Deficient Dogs. [PDF]

, 2017
PURPOSE: Retinal epithelium-specific protein 65 kDa (RPE65)-deficient dogs are a valuable large animal model species that have been used to refine gene augmentation therapy for Leber congenital amaurosis type-2 (LCA2).

Advances in the genetics of refractive errors: Contributions from the CREAM consortium

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Consortium for Refractive Error and Myopia (CREAM) was established in 2011, bringing together an international team of researchers studying more than 30 cohorts. Since its establishment, CREAM has played a pivotal role in research investigating the genetics of myopia and other refractive errors, serving as a key driver of progress in the ...

Development of an optimized AAV2/5 gene therapy vector for Leber congenital amaurosis owing to defects in RPE65 [PDF]

, 2016
Leber congenital amaurosis is a group of inherited retinal dystrophies that cause severe sight impairment in childhood; RPE65-deficiency causes impaired rod photoreceptor function from birth and progressive impairment of cone photoreceptor function ...

Retinal Pigment Epitheliopathy due to Sub‐Optimal Recycling of Vitamin A (RESORVA): A Novel RDH11‐Related Phenotype

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
RDH11 is a minor isoenzyme that catalyses the oxidation of 11‐cis‐retinol to 11‐cis‐retinal in the retinal pigment epithelium, alongside RDH5 and RDH10. Biallelic null variants in RDH11 lead to upregulation of RDH5 and RDH10 (transcriptional adaptation), maintaining 11‐cis‐retinal bioavailability, but still causing Retinal Pigment Epitheliopathy due to

Techniques for subretinal injections in animals

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 506-518, March 2025.
Abstract Subretinal injections are not commonly performed during clinical treatment of animals but are frequently used in laboratory animal models to assess therapeutic efficacy and safety of gene and cell therapy products. Veterinary ophthalmologists are often employed to perform the injections in the laboratory animal setting, due to knowledge of ...

New and emerging technologies for the treatment of inherited retinal diseases: a horizon scanning review. [PDF]

, 2015
The horizon scanning review aimed to identify new and emerging technologies in development that have the potential to slow or stop disease progression and/or reverse sight loss in people with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs).

Mechanistically distinct mouse models for CRX-associated retinopathy [PDF]

, 2014
Cone-rod homeobox (CRX) protein is a "paired-like" homeodomain transcription factor that is essential for regulating rod and cone photoreceptor transcription. Mutations in human CRX are associated with the dominant retinopathies Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP),

Test–retest variability of the full‐field stimulus test in patients with retinitis pigmentosa: REPEAT Study Report No. 4

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 1, Page 89-97, February 2026.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate test–retest variability (TRV) of the full‐field stimulus test (FST) in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and poor best‐corrected visual acuity (BCVA; ≤20/50 Snellen; ≥0.40 logMAR), and to assess the reliability of FST as a clinical endpoint in future RP trials.

Delayed‐onset cord1 progressive retinal atrophy in English Springer Spaniels genetically affected with the RPGRIP1 variant

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Objective Cone‐rod dystrophy (cord1) is a form of progressive retinal atrophy. It is linked to an RPGRIP1 genetic variant which is the third most common canine disease variant thus far. While the variant affects various breeds, it is highly prevalent in English Springer Spaniels (ESSs).

A defective structural zipper in photoreceptors causes inherited blindness

PLoS Biology, 2022
Being able to see the beauty of this world is a wonderful thing unfortunately unavailable to people with inherited blindness. In this issue of PLOS Biology, Mercey and colleagues present optimized expansion microscopy for retinal tissue, which represents
