Occult macular dystrophy in an Italian family carrying a mutation in the RP1L1 gene. [PDF]

, 2016
Occult macular dystrophy (OMD) is an inherited macular disease characterized by progressive visual decline with the absence of visible retinal abnormalities. Typical alterations of the retinal structure are detectable by spectral domain optical coherence

Retinitis pigmentosa and schizophrenia

European Psychiatry, 1998
SummaryThere have been previous suggestions in the literature of a link between schizophrenia and retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or its associated syndromes. In this article, we describe two cases of schizophrenía and two cases of delusional disorder occurring in patients with RP.

Purine Metabolism and Dystonia: Perspectives of a Long‐Promised Relationship

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Purine pool imbalance in purine metabolism disorders, such as Lesch–Nyhan disease, intersects with dystonia pathogenesis. The recent discovery of gain‐of‐function IMPDH2 pathogenic variants in patients with prominent dystonic manifestations provides new insights into the link between dystonia and purinergic system defects.

Macular Hole of the Left Eye in a 41-year-old Patient with Retinitis pigmentosa. A Case Report

Okulistyka
Retinitis pigmentosa is characterized by degeneration of the photoreceptors or retinal pigment epithelium and causes progressive vision loss. The disease can lead to night blindness, reduced field of vision and finally to complete loss of vision.

A novel small molecule chaperone of rod opsin and its potential therapy for retinal degeneration

Nature Communications, 2018
Mutations that lead to misfolding of rhodopsin can cause retinitis pigmentosa. Here, the authors carry out a high throughput screen to identify a small molecule chaperone of rod opsin, and show that it protects mouse models of retinitis pigmentosa from ...

Automated segmentation of retinal fluid volumes from structural and angiographic optical coherence tomography using deep learning [PDF]

, 2020
Purpose: We proposed a deep convolutional neural network (CNN), named Retinal Fluid Segmentation Network (ReF-Net) to segment volumetric retinal fluid on optical coherence tomography (OCT) volume. Methods: 3 x 3-mm OCT scans were acquired on one eye by a 70-kHz OCT commercial AngioVue system (RTVue-XR; Optovue, Inc.) from 51 participants in a clinical ...

The F220C and F45L rhodopsin mutations identified in retinitis pigmentosa patients do not cause pathology in mice. [PDF]

, 2020
Retinitis pigmentosa is a retinal degenerative disease that leads to blindness through photoreceptor loss. Rhodopsin is the most frequently mutated protein in this disease.
