Exploring fundus‐controlled mesopic and scotopic perimetry in inherited retinal disease
Abstract Purpose Microperimetry is increasingly used as an outcome measure in clinical trials for retinal disease. This study compares mesopic and scotopic microperimetry in a heterogeneous cohort of patients with inherited retinal disease to assess their suitability as clinical trial outcome measures and to determine the most appropriate testing ...

ABSTRACT Background The lack of validated and sensitive clinical endpoints remains a major challenge in the design of gene therapy trials for inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs). This prospective longitudinal cohort study describes the natural disease progression of IRDs caused by pathogenic mutations in the Crumbs homologue 1 (CRB1) gene, and ...

Techniques for subretinal injections in animals
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 ...

Impact of Retinal Disease-Associated RPE65 Mutations on Retinoid Isomerization
Pathogenic mutations in the RPE65 gene are associated with a spectrum of congenital blinding diseases in humans. We evaluated changes in the promoter region, coding regions, and exon/intron junctions of the RPE65 gene by direct sequencing of DNA from 36 ...

Targeted gene knockout mouse models have helped to identify roles of autophagy in many tissues. Here, we investigated the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of Atg7f/f Tyr-Cre mice (on a C57BL/6 background), in which Cre recombinase is expressed under the ...
