A novel deletion mutation in RS1 gene caused X-linked juvenile retinoschisis in a Chinese family [PDF]
X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS), a leading cause of juvenile macular degeneration, is characterized by a spoke-wheel pattern in the macular region of the retina and splitting of the neurosensory retina. This study aimed to identify the underlying genetic defect in a Chinese family with XLRS.The proband underwent complete ophthalmic examinations,

Case Report: Preventing X-linked retinoschisis transmission via MARSALA-based PGT-M [PDF]
X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is an X-linked recessive inherited retinal disease caused by mutations in the RS1 gene. This case report describes the successful application of preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic diseases (PGT-M) to prevent the ...

Retinal detachment associated with the splice site mutation c.53-1G>A in the gene: A case report and review of the literature [PDF]
Retinoschisin protein is mainly produced in the retina, with minimal expression in other tissues. It is located on the surface of the photoreceptor inner segments and bipolar cells.

Investigating the Role of Zebrafish Retinoschisin Homologs Rs1a and Rs1b During Retinal Development. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Deficiency in the retinoschisin protein (RS1) causes X‐linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS), a retinal degenerative disease that disrupts retinal layers and forms cystic cavities. In addition to its structural function, RS1 is believed to play a role in retinal development.

Microglial phagocytosis of bipolar cells triggers inner retinal degeneration in Rs1-KO mice [PDF]
Background X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) is a hereditary retinal disorder caused by mutations in the RS1 gene that leads to the formation of cavities in the inner nuclear layer (INL) and progressive vision loss, characterized by a ...

Ultrasound Controlled-Release Hydrogel Promotes Diabetic Wound Healing via Neuroimmune Modulation and Synergistic ROS Scavenging. [PDF]
This study presents an ultrasound‐responsive hydrogel (MCF@CA) that co‐delivers a neuropeptide (CGRP) and a ROS‐scavenging manganese porphyrin to diabetic wounds. The system restores neuro‐immune communication, reprograms macrophages toward an anti‐inflammatory phenotype, and clears excess ROS, thereby accelerating wound closure and promoting mature ...

Mutations in the RS1 gene in a Chinese family with X-linked juvenile retinoschisis. [PDF]
The purpose of our study was to identify the mutations in the retinoschisis 1 (RS1) gene, which was associated with X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) in a four-generation Chinese family, and to provide the theoretical basis for gene diagnosis and gene therapy. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral leukocytes. All six exons and flanking intronic regions
