MERTK missense variants in three patients with retinitis pigmentosa

Federica E. Poli et al.

Summary: This study reports three missense variants in the MERTK gene and analyzes the associated phenotypic data. These variants are associated with non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa. MERTK is a promising candidate for viral-mediated gene replacement therapy.

Genetic testing and diagnosis of inherited retinal diseases

Byron L. Lam et al.

Summary: Inherited retinal diseases are a diverse group of degenerative diseases that can cause significant vision loss and blindness. Genetic testing is crucial for obtaining a definitive diagnosis and accessing gene therapy-based treatments, but there is limited training in genetic diagnostics among ophthalmologists. Advances in molecular diagnostics have improved understanding and identification of disease-causing variants in IRDs.

Whole exome sequencing reveals putatively novel associations in retinopathies and drusen formation

Lance P. Doucette et al.

Summary: This study focused on inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) in ten families from Alberta, Canada, using novel gene discovery methods. The genetic causes of IRDs in three families were identified as variants in known disease-associated genes, while two potential new associations were also found. The research provided interesting insights into blinding conditions and unsolved cases, offering valuable information for further investigation.

Leber's Congenital Amaurosis: Current Concepts of Genotype-Phenotype Correlations

Chu-Hsuan Huang et al.

Summary: Leber's congenital amaurosis (LCA) is a severe genetic retinal disease responsible for 20% of childhood blindness, with its genetic background widely understood and disease-causing variants identified in 38 genes. Different pathogenetic mechanisms result in dysfunction or absence of encoded proteins in the visual cycle, leading to extensive heterogeneity in clinical phenotypes. Gene therapy shows promise in managing LCA, with ongoing clinical trials focusing on common disease-causing genes such as RPE65.
