This paper reviews the published histopathologic findings of patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or an allied disease in whom the responsible gene defect was identified, including 10 cases with dominant RP (cases with mutations in RHO, PRPC8, and RP1), three with dominant spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA7), three X-linked RP carrier females (RPGR), two with congenital retinal blindness (AIPL1 and RPE65), two with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy overlap syndrome (MTTL1), and one case each with dominant cone degeneration (GCAP1), X-linked cone degeneration (RCP), enhanced S-cone syndrome (NR2E3), and dominant late-onset retinal degeneration (CTRP5).
The aim of this study was to investigate the interaction and co-localization of novel interacting proteins with the Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) associated protein aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein-like 1 (AIPL1).
Mutations in the primate-specific proline-rich domain (PRD) of aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein-like 1 (AIPL1) are thought to cause Leber congenital amaurosis or dominant cone-rod dystrophy.
Mutations in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein-like 1 (AIPL1) gene have been found in patients with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), a severe, early-onset form of retinal degeneration.
Mutations in Aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein like-1 (AIPL1) are linked to Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), a severe blinding disease that occurs in early childhood.
Mutations in AIPL1 are associated with Leber Congenital Amaurosis (LCA), a major cause of childhood blindness, yet the cellular function of the encoded protein has yet to be fully elucidated.
Mutations in AIPL1 cause Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), the most severe form of inherited blindness in children; however, the function of this protein in normal vision remains unknown.
Gene therapy for retinitis pigmentosa and Leber congenital amaurosis caused by defects in AIPL1: effective rescue of mouse models of partial and complete Aipl1 deficiency using AAV2/2 and AAV2/8 vectors.
Gene defects in AIPL1 cause a heterogeneous set of conditions ranging from Leber's congenital amaurosis (LCA), the severest form of early-onset retinal degeneration, to milder forms such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and cone-rod dystrophy.
Defects in the photoreceptor-specific gene encoding aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein like-1 (AIPL1) are linked to blinding diseases, including Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) and cone dystrophy.
Defects in the photoreceptor-specific gene aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein-like 1 (Aipl1) are associated with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), a childhood blinding disease with early-onset retinal degeneration and vision loss.
Biallelic mutations in the photoreceptor-expressed aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein-like 1 (AIPL1) are associated with autosomal recessive Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), the most severe form of inherited retinopathy in early childhood.
