<strong>Description</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Leber congenital amaurosis comprises a group of early-onset childhood retinal dystrophies characterized by vision loss, nystagmus, and severe retinal dysfunction. Patients usually present at birth with profound vision loss and pendular nystagmus. Electroretinogram (ERG) responses are usually nonrecordable. Other clinical findings may include high hypermetropia, photodysphoria, oculodigital sign, keratoconus, cataracts, and a variable appearance to the fundus (summary by Chung and Traboulsi, 2009). </p><p>For a general description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of LCA, see 204000.</p>

<strong>Clinical Features</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Waardenburg and Schappert-Kimmijser (1963) published a pedigree that showed all normal children from 2 affected parents with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). The mother had 2 affected sisters and the father was the product of a first-cousin marriage. Keratoconus (or keratoglobus), a frequent feature of this condition, was not present in either parent but was found in one of the mother's affected sisters. This condition is, of course, not to be confused with Leber optic atrophy. </p><p>Chung and Traboulsi (2009) noted that LCA2 is distinguished by moderate visual impairment at infancy that progresses to total blindness by mid to late adulthood. One of the unique qualities of LCA2 is that, even with profound early visual impairment, retinal cells are relatively preserved. </p><p>Morimura et al. (1998) summarized the clinical criteria distinguishing retinitis pigmentosa (RP) from LCA. RP is the diagnosis given to patients with photoreceptor degeneration who have good central vision within the first decade of life. The diagnosis of LCA is given to patients who are born blind or who lose vision within a few months after birth. Both diagnostic entities feature attenuated retinal vessels and a variable amount of retinal pigmentation in older patients and a reduced or nondetectable electroretinogram (ERG) at all ages. Morimura et al. (1998) noted that there was no universally accepted diagnostic term for those patients with retinal degeneration who lose useful (ambulatory) vision during the first few years of life, with ophthalmologists considering such cases as either LCA or severe RP. </p><p>Yzer et al. (2003) studied 14 patients with early-onset retinal dystrophy from 10 related Dutch families from a genetically isolated population living on a former island in the Netherlands, previously reported by Schappert-Kimmijser et al. (1959), as having a high incidence of LCA. None of the 14 newborns followed objects or made eye contact, leading their parents to suspect visual impairment within the first 3 months of life. All had night blindness, and none had photophobia, and all but 2 children showed early-onset nystagmus or developed nystagmus before 6 years of age. A wide range of visual acuities was observed at first examination, and at follow-up visual acuity had remained relatively stable in 9 patients, whereas in 4 it had deteriorated. In the 7 patients in whom color vision testing could be performed, color vision was severely disturbed and tended to the tritan axis (see 190900). Visual field defects were slightly progressive, but peripheral fields remained relatively stable in 10 patients. ERGs were performed by 3 years of age in 12 patients, of whom 7 had no responses detected (5 within the first year of life); in 4 patients, severely reduced photopic responses were measured with absent scotopic responses, and in only 1 patient were both scotopic and photopic responses measured. Yzer et al. (2003) noted that the age of onset of the retinal dystrophy in these patients suggested LCA, but that several characteristics, including visual acuity, visual fields, and night blindness, led them to classify the phenotype as an early-onset severe retinal dystrophy. </p><p>Al-Khayer et al. (2004) reported a 35-year-old patient with LCA due to compound heterozygosity for mutations in the RPE65 gene. She had severe visual deficits and had presented in infancy with night blindness, nystagmus, and absent rod and cone electroretinograms. Although in early childhood her visual acuity was 20/60 in both eyes and color recognition was normal, at age 35 years her acuity had declined to 2/200 in the right eye and 1/200 in the left eye. </p>

Analysis of marker D1S2895, located 3 cM proximal to the RPE65 gene (180069), also revealed homozygosity of 1 allele in 5 of 8 informative families. </p>

<strong>Molecular Genetics</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>The existence of at least 2 genetically distinct forms of Leber congenital amaurosis was established by the demonstration of Marlhens et al. (1997) that the disorder can be caused not only by mutations in the gene for retinal guanylate cyclase (600179), but also by mutations in the RPE65 gene. In 2 sibs with LCA2, they identified compound heterozygosity for mutations in the RPE65 gene: a 1-bp deletion (180069.0001) and a nonsense mutation (180069.0002) inherited from the mother and father, respectively. </p><p>In 13 patients with early-onset severe retinal dystrophy from 9 related Dutch families from a genetically isolated population living on a former island, Yzer et al. (2003) analyzed the RPE65 gene and identified homozygosity for a missense mutation (Y368H; 180069.0009). A patient from another related family was found to be compound heterozygous for Y368H and a splice site mutation (180069.0010). Among 25 unaffected sibs tested, 17 were heterozygous for the Y368H mutation, and 8 did not carry the mutation. The Y368H mutation was found in 3 (3.1%) of 96 unrelated controls from the same isolated Dutch population. Yzer et al. (2003) noted that in a study of the same genetically isolated Dutch population, Schappert-Kimmijser et al. (1959) ascertained 13 LCA patients in 8 families; Yzer et al. (2003) predicted that most if not all of those patients carried the Y368H founder mutation. The Y368H founder mutation was not detected in 86 LCA patients from a different white population or in 94 controls from the Netherlands, but analysis of 75 Dutch patients with autosomal recessive or isolated retinitis pigmentosa revealed the presence of the mutation in heterozygosity in 1 Dutch patient with RP and early-onset vision loss. </p><p>Al-Khayer et al. (2004) identified compound heterozygosity for mutations in the RPE65 gene (180069.0011 and 180069.0012) in a 35-year-old woman with LCA2. </p>

<strong>Clinical Management</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p><strong><em>Gene Therapy</em></strong></p><p>
Hauswirth et al. (2008) reported results at 90 days after RPE65 gene therapy in 3 young adults with LCA2, 2 of whom were homozygous and 1 compound heterozygous for mutations that had been previously reported to be associated with LCA and for which little or no RPE65 isomerase activity had been demonstrated by in vitro studies. The eye with worse visual function received vector administration in each case. Post-treatment visual acuity was not significantly different from baseline. All patients reported increased visual sensitivity in the study eye, especially noticeable under reduced ambient light conditions; dark-adapted full-field sensitivity testing showed significant increases compared to the control eye (p less than 0.001). Hauswirth et al. (2008) reviewed the results of 2 concurrent RPE65 gene therapy trials (Bainbridge et al., 2008; Maguire et al., 2008), but noted that outcomes were difficult to compare due to differences in technique among the 3 studies, including vector titer, area of RPE exposed to vector, and regulatory elements used to control expression of the human RPE65 cDNA, as well as large differences in visual function at baseline in each trial. </p><p>Cideciyan et al. (2008) analyzed rod and cone kinetics in the 3 LCA2 patients reported by Hauswirth et al. (2008) who had undergone RPE65 gene therapy. Both cone- and rod-photoreceptor-based vision could be demonstrated in treated areas, with increases up to 50-fold for cones and up to 63,000-fold for rods. Noting that visual loss in LCA2 is due to a combination of biochemical blockade of the retinoid cycle and degeneration of retinal photoreceptors, Cideciyan et al. (2008) related the degree of light sensitivity to the level of remaining photoreceptors within the treatment area, and found that the intervention could overcome nearly all of the loss of light sensitivity resulting from the biochemical blockade. The reconstituted retinoid cycle was not completely normal, however: although cone-sensitivity recovery time was rapid, resensitization kinetics of the newly treated rods were remarkably slow and required 8 hours or more to reach full sensitivity, compared with less than 1 hour in normal eyes. </p><p>Cideciyan et al. (2009) provided follow-up on 1 of the patients previously studied by Hauswirth et al. (2008) who, 12 months after RPE65 gene therapy for LCA2, reported perception of the lowest luminance target for the first time, which was found to be accompanied by a distinct shift in fixation into the treated superotemporal retina. Further examination revealed that foveal sensitivities in her 2 eyes were similar, but the superotemporal region of the treated eye was remarkably different from the cone blindness in the comparable region of the untreated eye. Cideciyan et al. (2009) concluded that the change in fixation was driven by treatment-created extrafoveal cone vision with better sensitivity and greater expanse than the untreated foveal region, suggesting the slow development of a 'pseudo-fovea' and an underlying experience-dependent plasticity of the adult visual system. </p><p>Maguire et al. (2009) assessed the retinal and visual function in 12 patients aged 8 to 44 years with RPE65-associated Leber congenital amaurosis who had received 1 subretinal injection of adeno-associated virus (AAV) containing the RPE65 gene in the worse eye at low (1.5 x 10(10) vector genomes), medium (4.8 x 10(10) vector genomes), or high dose (1.5 x 10(11) vector genomes) for up to 2 years. Patients had at least 2 log unit increase in pupillary light responses, and an 8-year-old child had nearly the same level of light sensitivity as that in age-matched normal-sighted individuals. The greatest improvement was noted in children, all of whom gained ambulatory vision. Gene therapy was well tolerated and all patients showed sustained improvement in subjective and objective measurements of vision. </p>

<strong>Animal Model</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Aguirre et al. (1998) described a 4-bp deletion in the RPE65 gene in a form of retinal dystrophy in dogs of the Swedish Briard breed. The disorder was initially described by Narfstrom et al. (1989) as a stationary disorder analogous to human congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB). The disorder was later described as having a progressive component and was termed hereditary retinal dystrophy (Wrigstad et al., 1994). Aguirre et al. (1998) studied 10 Briard dogs affected with what has been called CSNB in the U.S. The dogs originated from stock in the U.S., Canada, and France. Identification of the same mutation in all of these dogs suggested a founder effect. </p>

To ensure long-term funding for the OMIM project, we have diversified
our revenue stream. We are determined to keep this website freely
accessible. Unfortunately, it is not free to produce. Expert curators
review the literature and organize it to facilitate your work. Over 90%
of the OMIM's operating expenses go to salary support for MD and PhD
science writers and biocurators. Please join your colleagues by making a
donation now and again in the future. Donations are an important
component of our efforts to ensure long-term funding to provide you the
information that you need at your fingertips.
