Retinal disorders v8.111 RDH11 Ida Ertmanska changed review comment from: PMID: 41904678 Radio et al., 2026
Report of 16 affected individuals from 9 unrelated families with biallelic LoF RDH11 variants, frequently showing juvenile-onset progressive myopathy with vacuolar degeneration and prodromic asymptomatic hyperCKemia. Common features included: neurodevelopmental impairment (16/16), microcephaly (10/16), retinitis pigmentosa (8/16), juvenile-onset cataracts (11/16), myopathy (8/15), progressive night blindness (9/16), hypoplasia of corpus callosum (8/10 assessed by MRI). Microcephaly and distinct craniofacial traits were also recurrent. Short stature was reported in 4/16 patients.
Muscle weakness was reported as slowly progressive, associated with myopathic facies and exercise intolerance with onset in the first or second decade of life.

Report of a visually asymptomatic 7-year-old boy carrying a homozygous null variant in RDH11 [NM_016026.4:c.216C>A:p.(Cys72*)] with autism, dysmorphic features, oligodontia, microcephaly (<3rd centile) and a novel inherited retinal dystrophy. This retinopathy consisted of yellow deposits and hyperpigmentation within the RPE with absent autofluorescence and a normal electroretinogram.

Chinese patient with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), juvenile cataracts, intellectual disability, and myopathy. No microcephaly. Trio WES identified variants in RDH11: c.938T>C (p.Leu313Pro) and c.75-3C>A - confirmed in trans. Splice variant shown to cause exon 2 skipping resulting in (p.Lys26Serfs*38) change. Using immunofluorescence, authors found mislocalization of RDH11 protein in muscle cells of the patient.

Retinal disorders v5.15 SLC38A8 Mohammed Derar changed review comment from: Biallelic variants in SLC38A8 cause isolated foveal hypoplasia, chisamal misrouting in the absence of pigmentation defects. The variable phenotype being anterior segment dysgenesis (Poulter et al., 2013). Bare in mind chiasmal misrouting is not always reported due to lack of access to the visual evoked potentials (VEP) test, technical difficulty in performing the test on infants and inconsistent results during childhood (Campbell et al., 2019). The differential feature of SLC38A8 is the absence of pigmentation defects however assessing pigmentation status proves challenging especially in fair populations thus some genuine SLC38A8 cases are misdiagnosed as albinism (Campbell et al., 2019). Oculomotor defects such as nystagmus accompanies foveal hypoplasia in its syndromic and isolated forms.; to: Biallelic variants in SLC38A8 cause isolated foveal hypoplasia, chisamal misrouting in the absence of pigmentation defects.

Added comment: The study described: "5 multigenerational families diagnosed with autosomal dominant maculoretinopathy were found to carry a pathogenic variant in a new gene, CLEC3B, which encodes tetranectin, a plasminogen kringle-4 binding protein. Consistent with the disease phenotypes of patients, mice that received subretinal injections with the CLEC3B variant displayed multiple subretinal hyperreflective deposits, reduced retinal thickness, and decreased electroretinographic responses. Moreover, the optokinetic tracking response indicated that spatial frequency was significantly lower (P < .05), implying impaired visual function in these mice."

Retinal disorders v4.68 LRRC32 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Classified gene: LRRC32 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Retinal disorders v4.68 LRRC32 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Added comment: Comment on list classification: As reviewed by Hannah Knight, there are two different homozygous LRRC32 variants reported (c.1630C>T/ p.Arg544Ter & c.1354 G>A/ p.Glu452Lys) in three unrelated families, of which p.Arg544Ter variant reported in two families was suggested to be a founder variant as indicated by haplotype analysis. Hence, this gene should be rated amber with current evidence.
