Novel GUCY2D Gene Mutations in Japanese Male Twins with Leber Congenital Amaurosis
Purpose. Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), a genetically and clinically heterogeneous disease, is the earliest onset retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and is the most severe of hereditary retinal dystrophies. This study was conducted to investigate genetic and clinical features of LCA in a set of Japanese male twins with LCA. Methods. To identify causative mutations, 74 genes known to cause RP or LCA w...
متن کاملElectroretinographic abnormalities in parents of patients with Leber congenital amaurosis who have heterozygous GUCY2D mutations.
BACKGROUND Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is an infrequently encountered congenital form of retinitis pigmentosa with marked genetic and clinical heterogeneity. Thus far, 10 genes have been identified in this disorder since 1996. In the future, LCA may become treatable by gene and/or pharmacological intervention, and these therapies will likely be gene specific, giving major significance to r...
متن کاملCRB1-Related Leber Congenital Amaurosis: Reporting Novel Pathogenic Variants and a Brief Review on Mutations Spectrum
Background: Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is a rare inherited retinal disease causing severe visual impairment in infancy. It has been reported that 9-15% of LCA cases have mutations in CRB1 gene. The complex of CRB1 protein with other associated proteins affects the determination of cell polarity, orientation, and morphogenesis of photoreceptors. Here, we report three novel pathogenic varia...

متن کاملLeber congenital amaurosis caused by mutations in RPGRIP1.
Recessive null mutations in retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator interacting protein 1 (RPGRIP1) gene are the cause of LCA6 and account for 5% to 6% of the total patient population. RPGRIP1 has an essential role in the photoreceptor connecting cilia, and photoreceptors lacking RPGRIP1 are unable to maintain the light sensing outer segments. As a result, patients lose retinal functions at an ea...
