Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles types 1 and 3 (CFEOM1/CFEOM3) are autosomal dominant strabismus disorders that appear to result from maldevelopment of ocular nuclei and nerves.
A total of 13 patients with genetically confirmed CFEOM (via genetic testing for mutations in KIF21A, PHOX2A, and TUBB3) were retrospectively identified after undergoing strabismus surgery at Boston Children's Hospital and surgical outcomes were compared.
ADAT3-related intellectual disability has been recently described in 24 individuals from eight Saudi families who had cognitive impairment and strabismus.
OPHN1 mutations cause a syndromic form of mental retardation (MR) characterized by cerebellar hypoplasia, early hypotonia, motor and speech delay, with occasional seizures and strabismus.
Homozygosity mapping and exome sequencing in two affected siblings of a consanguineous family with mild intellectual disability, spastic paraplegia, and strabismus revealed a homozygous premature stop mutation at codon 139 of C12ORF65.
Our results report that the c.434G-T mutation (p.R145L) in PAX3 may contribute to strabismus, expanding our understanding of the causally relevant genes for this disorder.
Detailed clinical description showed that all four individuals with a GATAD2B aberration had a distinctive phenotype with childhood hypotonia, severe intellectual disability, limited speech, tubular shaped nose with broad nasal tip, short philtrum, sparse hair and strabismus.
Mutations in early B cell factor 3 (<i>EBF3</i>) were recently described in patients with a neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) that includes developmental delay/intellectual disability, ataxia, hypotonia, speech impairment, strabismus, genitourinary abnormalities, and mild facial dysmorphisms.
Congenital stationary night blindess-2 (incomplete congenital stationary night blindness (iCSNB) or CSNB-2) is a nonprogressive, X-linked retinal disease which can lead to clinical symptoms such as myopia, hyperopia, nystagmus, strabismus, decreased visual acuity, and impaired scotopic vision.
She also had a constant exotropia, so we examined the PHOX2B gene associated with both schizophrenia and strabismus, and detected a 5-alanine deletion.
Children with TRPM1-associated cCSNB presented before school age with progressive myopia as well as strabismus and nystagmus (but not nyctalopia), with stable, electronegative ffERG results, mildly subnormal full-field stimulus threshold testing results, and a constricted I2e isopter on perimetry.
Patients with fukutin-related protein gene mutation tend to have no or mild eye involvement (generally strabismus), with very few cases reported of moderate to severe eye involvement.
Wnts function through MIG-1/Frizzled and the planar cell polarity protein (PCP) VANG-1/Strabismus/Vangl2 to restrict the formation of F-actin patches, which mark branching sites in nascent neurites.
The Loop-tail (Lp) mouse that develops craniorachischisis carry missense mutations in the PCP core gene Vangl2, that is the mammalian homolog of the Drosophila Strabismus/Van gogh (Stbm/Vang).
Strabismus 1 (STB1/VangL2) and Strabismus 2 (STB2/Vangl1) are human homologues of Xenopus Stbm and Drosophila Stbm/ Van Gogh (Vang) STB1 and STB2 are four-transmembrane-type proteins with Dishevelled-binding motif.
Eleven of 25 diplopic patients (44%) had retinal misregistration as the sole cause (central-peripheral rivalry-type diplopia), 7 (28%) strabismus (1 of 7 initally appeared to have central-peripheral rivalry-type diplopia), 1 (4%) optical/refractive error (monocular diplopia), 2 (8%) mixed retinal misregistration (central-peripheral rivalry-type diplopia) and strabismus, and for 4 (16%) diplopia cause was indeterminate.
Strabismus 1 (STB1/VangL2) and Strabismus 2 (STB2/Vangl1) are human homologues of Xenopus Stbm and Drosophila Stbm/ Van Gogh (Vang) STB1 and STB2 are four-transmembrane-type proteins with Dishevelled-binding motif.
