Abstract [show]
Stargardt disease was diagnosed in 12 patients from 12 families using complete ophthalmologic examination, fundus photography, fundus autofluorescence, and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. DNA was extracted for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct DNA sequencing (ABCA4 gene). Genetic counseling and eye examination were offered to 16 additional family members. Various patterns of presentation were observed in patients with clinical diagnoses of Stargardt disease. The genetic study identified 2 mutations in 75% of families (9/12); a second mutation could not be found in the remaining 25% of families (3/12). The most frequent mutation was G1961E, found in 17% of families (2/12). This finding is similar to that of a previous analysis report of an Italian patient series. Four new mutations were also identified: Tyr1858Asp, Leu1195fsX1196, p.Tyr850Cys, and p.Thr959Ala. Our results suggest that PCR and direct DNA sequencing are the most appropriate techniques for the analysis of the ABCA4 gene. However, this method requires supplementation with specific PCR analysis to diagnose large deletions. The study of the families identified healthy carriers and affected subjects in presymptomatic stages and was also useful for evaluating the risk of transmission to progeny. Combined ophthalmologic and genetic evaluation enabled better clinical management of these families.

77 This insertion leads to a reading frame shift in the coding region downstream, which results in a change in amino acid 1195 from leucine to arginine and the appearance of a stop codon in the next position, generating a truncated protein.
