Modeling retinitis pigmentosa through patient-derived retinal organoids

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) can be differentiated into well-structured retinal organoids. In this protocol, we successfully established 3D retinae from patient-derived hiPSCs and built the retinitis pigmentosa model in vitro ...

On the heredity of retinitis pigmentosa. [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Ophthalmology, 1982
The aims of this study are: (1) to determine the frequencies of the various genetic forms of retinitis pigmentosa; and (2) to perform segregation analysis on autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, and X-linked families. The families studied consisted of 2 series of patients at Moorfields Eye Hospital: (1) 426 families seen in the Genetic Clinic; and (

CORRELATIONS BETWEEN CHOROIDAL STRUCTURES AND VISUAL FUNCTIONS IN EYES WITH RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA

open access: yesRetina, 2018
The author report the structural changes in the inner and outer choroid determined by the binarization of enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomographic images in 100 eyes with retinitis pigmentosa compared with 60 normal controls and significant ...

Revealing Molecular Diagnosis With Whole Exome Sequencing in Patients With Inherited Retinal Disorders

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 1, Page 14-21, July 2025.
Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a leading cause of vision loss, with an incidence of 1:2000. In this study of 50 Turkish patients, next‐generation sequencing identified pathogenic variants in 58%, including novel variants in six genes. This research enhances genetic understanding and supports improved diagnostics and treatments for IRDs ...

The mechanistic functional landscape of retinitis pigmentosa: a machine learning-driven approach to therapeutic target discovery

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine
Background Retinitis pigmentosa is the prevailing genetic cause of blindness in developed nations with no effective treatments. In the pursuit of unraveling the intricate dynamics underlying this complex disease, mechanistic models emerge as a tool of ...

Exploring standard and low luminance visual acuity and the Moorfields Acuity Chart as outcome measures in inherited retinal disease

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 45, Issue 5, Page 1158-1163, July 2025.
Abstract Introduction Standard visual acuity (VA) is often insensitive to subtle changes in vision that result from inherited retinal disease. Low luminance VA (LLVA) has grown in popularity as an alternative acuity measure. A new test, the Moorfields Acuity Chart (MAC) has been designed as a more sensitive and repeatable test for use in patients with ...

Rescue of the MERTK phagocytic defect in a human iPSC disease model using translational read-through inducing drugs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Inherited retinal dystrophies are an important cause of blindness, for which currently there are no effective treatments. In order to study this heterogeneous group of diseases, adequate disease models are required in order to better understand pathology
