The metabolism of fatty acids in human Bietti crystalline dystrophy.
PURPOSE To investigate the role of abnormal lipid metabolism in Bietti crystalline dystrophy. METHODS Cultured human lymphocytes and fibroblasts from patients with Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD) were incubated in the presence of [(14)C]18:3n-3 or [(14)C]18:2n-6. Incorporation into the cellular lipid pools and further metabolism by desaturation or elongation were monitored by thin-layer ch...

متن کاملSpectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomographic Findings of Bietti Crystalline Dystrophy
We analyzed the OCT features of 24 eyes of 12 patients with Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD) with the Heidelberg HRA2-OCT. Seventeen of 24 eyes were in intermediate stage of the disease and seven in advanced stage of the disease at the time of latest OCT examination performed in 2014. Outer retinal tubulations and retinal hyperreflective dots were present in 20 of 24 eyes. The remaining four ...
متن کاملCharacterization of Bietti crystalline dystrophy patients with CYP4V2 mutations.
PURPOSE Mutations of the CYP4V2 gene, a novel family member of the cytochrome P450 genes on chromosome 4q35, have recently been identified in patients with Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD). The aim of this study was to investigate the spectrum of mutations in this gene in BCD patients from Singapore, and to characterize their phenotype. METHODS Nine patients with BCD from six families were ...
