A decision making algorithm for inherited retinal dystrophies, caused by biallelic mutations in the RPE65 gene, in the clinical practice of an ophthalmologist

open access: yesРоссийский офтальмологический журнал, 2022
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD) include a wide range of genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous diseases that lead to progressive loss of vision.

Lentiviral gene transfer of RPE65 rescues survival and function of cones in a mouse model of Leber congenital amaurosis.

open access: yesPLoS Medicine, 2006
BackgroundRPE65 is specifically expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium and is essential for the recycling of 11-cis-retinal, the chromophore of rod and cone opsins.

ERG responses of (±)-RPE65-61 treated LIRD mice.

open access: yes, 2022
Retina photoreceptor function was measured by ERG 5 days after light exposure. (A) Comparison of averaged scotopic a-wave amplitudes from three mouse groups. Seven different stimulus intensities were used, ranging from 0.002 to 400 cd s/m2.

A Gene Scan Study of RPE65 in Chinese Patients with Leber Congenital Amaurosis

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2017
Background: Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is a visual disease which is caused by RPE65 mutations and results in retinal degeneration and severe vision loss in early infancy. According to previous researches, mutations of the RPE65 gene account for 16%

Retinal pigment epithelium 65 kDa protein (RPE65): An update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Vertebrate vision critically depends on an 11-cis-retinoid renewal system known as the visual cycle. At the heart of this metabolic pathway is an enzyme known as retinal pigment epithelium 65 kDa protein (RPE65), which catalyzes an unusual, possibly

Voretigene Neparvovec for the Treatment of RPE65-associated Retinal Dystrophy: Consensus and Recommendations from the Korea RPE65-IRD Consensus Paper Committee [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Mutations in the RPE65 gene, associated with Leber congenital amaurosis, early-onset severe retinal dystrophy, and retinitis pigmentosa, gained growing attention since gene therapy for patients with RPE65-associated retinal dystrophy is available in ...

Origin and evolution of retinoid isomerization machinery in vertebrate visual cycle: hint from jawless vertebrates.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In order to maintain visual sensitivity at all light levels, the vertebrate eye possesses a mechanism to regenerate the visual pigment chromophore 11-cis retinal in the dark enzymatically, unlike in all other taxa, which rely on photoisomerization.

Bax-induced apoptosis in Leber's congenital amaurosis: a dual role in rod and cone degeneration.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Pathogenesis in the Rpe65(-/-) mouse model of Leber's congenital amaurosis (LCA) is characterized by a slow and progressive degeneration of the rod photoreceptors. On the opposite, cones degenerate rapidly at early ages. Retinal degeneration in Rpe65(-/-)
