Stargardt macular dystrophy: common ABCA4 mutations in South Africa--establishment of a rapid genetic test and relating risk to patients.
Mol Vis. 2012;18:280-9. Epub 2012 Feb 1., [PMID:22328824]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: Based on the previous indications of founder ATP-binding cassette sub-family A member 4 gene (ABCA4) mutations in a South African subpopulation, the purpose was to devise a mechanism for identifying common disease-causing mutations in subjects with ABCA4-associated retinopathies (AARs). Facilitating patient access to this data and determining the frequencies of the mutations in the South African population would enhance the current molecular diagnostic service offered. METHODS: The majority of subjects in this study were of Caucasian ancestry and affected with Stargardt macular dystrophy. The initial cohort consisted of DNA samples from 181 patients, and was screened using the ABCR400 chip. An assay was then designed to screen a secondary cohort of 72 patients for seven of the most commonly occurring ABCA4 mutations in this population. A total of 269 control individuals were also screened for the seven ABCA4 mutations. RESULTS: Microarray screening results from a cohort of 181 patients affected with AARs revealed that seven ABCA4 mutations (p.Arg152*, c.768G>T, p.Arg602Trp, p.Gly863Ala, p.Cys1490Tyr, c.5461-10T>C, and p.Leu2027Phe) occurred at a relatively high frequency. The newly designed genetic assay identified two of the seven disease-associated mutations in 28/72 patients in a secondary patient cohort. In the control cohort, 12/269 individuals were found to be heterozygotes, resulting in an estimated background frequency of these mutations in this particular population of 4.46 per 100 individuals. CONCLUSIONS: The relatively high detection rate of seven ABCA4 mutations in the primary patient cohort led to the design and subsequent utility of a multiplex assay. This assay can be used as a viable screening tool and to reduce costs and laboratory time. The estimated background frequency of the seven ABCA4 mutations, together with the improved diagnostic service, could be used by counselors to facilitate clinical and genetic management of South African families with AARs.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE. To study the relationship between macular cone structure, fundus autofluorescence (AF), and visual function in patients with Stargardt disease (STGD). METHODS. High-resolution images of the macula were obtained with adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO) and spectral domain optical coherence tomography in 12 patients with STGD and 27 age-matched healthy subjects. Measures of retinal structure and AF were correlated with visual function, including best-corrected visual acuity, color vision, kinetic and static perimetry, fundus-guided microperimetry, and full-field electroretinography. Mutation analysis of the ABCA4 gene was completed in all patients. RESULTS. Patients were 15 to 55 years old, and visual acuity ranged from 20/25-20/320. Central scotomas were present in all patients, although the fovea was spared in three patients. The earliest cone spacing abnormalities were observed in regions of homogeneous AF, normal visual function, and normal outer retinal structure. Outer retinal structure and AF were most normal near the optic disc. Longitudinal studies showed progressive increases in AF followed by reduced AF associated with losses of visual sensitivity, outer retinal layers, and cones. At least one disease-causing mutation in the ABCA4 gene was identified in 11 of 12 patients studied; 1 of 12 patients showed no disease-causing ABCA4 mutations. CONCLUSIONS. AOSLO imaging demonstrated abnormal cone spacing in regions of abnormal fundus AF and reduced visual function. These findings provide support for a model of disease progression in which lipofuscin accumulation results in homogeneously increased AF with cone spacing abnormalities, followed by heterogeneously increased AF with cone loss, then reduced AF with cone and RPE cell death.

Early-onset macular degeneration with drusen in a cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis) pedigree: exclusion of 13 candidate genes and loci.
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci. 2005 Feb;46(2):683-91., [PMID:15671300]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To describe hereditary macular degeneration observed in the cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis), which shares phenotypic features with age-related macular degeneration in humans, and to test the involvement of candidate gene loci by mutation screening and linkage analysis. METHODS: Ophthalmic examinations with fundus photography, fluorescein angiography (FA), indocyanine green angiography (IA), electroretinography (ERG), and histologic studies were performed on both affected and unaffected monkeys in the pedigree. The monkey orthologues of the human ABCA4, VMD2, EFEMP1, TIMP3, and ELOVL4 genes were cloned and screened for mutations by single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis or denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) and direct sequencing in six affected and five unaffected monkeys from the pedigree and in six unrelated, unaffected monkeys. Subsequently, 13 human macular degeneration loci including these five genes were analyzed to test for linkage with the disease. Nineteen affected and seven unaffected monkeys in the pedigree were analyzed by using human microsatellite markers linked to the 13 loci. RESULTS: Yellowish white spots were observed in the macula and fovea centralis, and in some cases the spots scattered to the peripheral retina along the blood vessels. FA showed hyperfluorescence corresponding to the dots except in the foveola. No anomalies were found by IA and ERG. Histologic studies demonstrated that the spots were drusen. Mutation analysis of the ABCA4, VMD2, EFEMP1, TIMP3, and ELOVL4 genes identified a few sequence variants, but none of them segregated with the disease. Linkage analysis with markers linked to these five genes and an additional eight human macular degeneration loci failed to establish linkage. Haplotype analysis excluded the involvement of the 13 candidate loci for harboring the gene associated with macular degeneration in the monkeys. CONCLUSIONS: Significant homology was identified between monkey and human orthologues of the five macular degeneration genes. Thirteen loci associated with macular degeneration in humans or harboring macular degeneration genes were excluded as causal of early-onset macular degeneration in the monkeys. It is likely that none of these loci, but rather a novel gene, is involved in causing the observed phenotype in this monkey pedigree.
