Retinal disorders
Gene: OTX2Additional evidence - PMID: 32277752 - Bando et al 2020 report defects in the pituitary glands, mandibles and eyes of otx2b mutant fish that model the features of patients with OTX2 mutations. Otx2b deficiency causes reduced cell proliferation and increased apoptosis, resulting in organ hypoplasiaCreated: 30 Jul 2020, 2:03 p.m. | Last Modified: 30 Jul 2020, 2:03 p.m.
