Diagnostic exome sequencing in 266 Dutch patients with visual impairment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Inherited eye disorders have a large clinical and genetic heterogeneity, which makes genetic diagnosis cumbersome. An exome-sequencing approach was developed in which data analysis was divided into two steps: the vision gene panel and exome analysis.

ABCA4-Associated Stargardt Disease

open access: yesKlinische Monatsblätter für Augenheilkunde, 2020
AbstractAutosomal recessive Stargardt disease (STGD1) is associated with variants in the ABCA4 gene. The phenotypes range from early-onset STGD1, that clinically resembles severe cone-rod dystrophy, to intermediate STGD1 and late-onset STGD1. These different phenotypes can be correlated with different combinations of ABCA4 variants which can be ...

Identification and functional validation of a novel disease‐causing variant in the noncoding region of NYX

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders, with ~30% of cases remaining genetically unsolved. Complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB) is a subtype of IRD, usually associated with reduced visual acuity, nystagmus and high myopia.

New and emerging technologies for the treatment of inherited retinal diseases: a horizon scanning review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The horizon scanning review aimed to identify new and emerging technologies in development that have the potential to slow or stop disease progression and/or reverse sight loss in people with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs).

Macular dystrophy associated with the mitochondrial DNA A3243G mutation: pericentral pigment deposits or atrophy? Report of two cases and review of the literature. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: The A3243G point mutation in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is associated with MELAS (mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes) and MIDD syndromes (maternally inherited diabetes and deafness).
