Analysis of RP2 and RPGR Mutations in Five X-Linked Chinese Families with Retinitis Pigmentosa

Mutations in RP2 and RPGR genes are responsible for the X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP). In this study, we analyzed the RP2 and RPGR gene mutations in five Han Chinese families with XLRP. An approximately 17Kb large deletion including the exon 4 and exon 5 of RP2 gene was found in an XLRP family. In addition, four frameshift mutations including three novel mutations of c.1059 + 1 G > T, c....

Mutational screening of the RP2 and RPGR genes in Spanish families with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.

PURPOSE The X-linked form of retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP) is the most severe type because of its early onset and rapid progression. Five XLRP loci have been mapped, although only two genes, RPGR (for RP3) and RP2, have been cloned. In this study, 30 unrelated XLRP Spanish families were screened to determine the molecular cause of the disease. METHODS Haplotype analysis was performed, to determ...

Inner retinal abnormalities in X-linked retinitis pigmentosa with RPGR mutations.

PURPOSE To investigate in vivo the retinal microstructure in X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP) caused by RPGR mutations as a prelude to treatment initiatives for this common form of RP. METHODS Patients with RPGR-XLRP (n = 12; age range, 10-56 years) were studied by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in a wide region of central retina. Overall retinal thickness and outer nuclear layer (ONL...

Disease course of patients with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa due to RPGR gene mutations.

PURPOSE To measure the rates of visual acuity, visual field, and ERG loss in patients with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa due to RPGR mutations and to determine whether these rates differ from those of patients with dominant retinitis pigmentosa due to RHO mutations. METHODS Snellen visual acuities, Goldmann visual field areas (V4e white test light), and 30 Hz (cone) full-field ERG amplitudes ...

Identification of a novel RPGR exon ORF15 mutation in a family with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of a novel mutation associated with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP). METHODS Six individuals in a family with XLRP were recruited, and clinical examinations were performed. All of the members were genotyped with microsatellite markers at loci that were considered to be associated with XLRP. The retinitis pigmentosa GTP...
