Congenital muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy, type A, featuring bilateral retinal dysplasia and vertical angle kappa
2018, Journal of AAPOSCitation Excerpt :No ophthalmological findings were previously noted for the c.1895 + 1 G > T variant.1,2 Pihko and colleagues6 found exceptionally high visual evoked potentials of >50 μV with delay in 12 of 18 patients tested. Hoang8 described a 12-day-old MEB patient who presented with an avascular retina and full-thickness holes of the left eye.

2014, Pediatric NeurologyCitation Excerpt :The weakened inner limiting membrane results in the disruption of the membrane and subsequent reduction in retinal integrity.28 Ocular abnormalities of muscle-eye-brain disease include a predisposition to glaucoma, progressive myopia, juvenile cataracts, nystagmus, uncontrollable eye movements, retinal atrophy with reduced retinal function, hypoplasia/dysplasia or atrophy of optic nerve, coloboma, and microphthalmus.29 The most common ophthalmologic abnormality in our study was cataracts followed by retinal detachment and optic nerve hypoplasia.
Reactive gliosis of astrocytes and Müller glial cells in retina of POMGnT1-deficient mice
2011, Molecular and Cellular NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :The alpha-DG in the OPL is localized around the site of expression of ribbon synapses of rod and cone photoreceptor terminals (Ueda et al., 1995; Montanaro et al., 1995). Abnormal electroretinograms (ERGs) have been recorded from patients with MEB disease (Pihko et al., 1995; Fahnehjelm et al., 2001), and have frequently been recorded from individuals with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies (Pillers et al., 1999). The findings in several mouse models with disruption of dystrophin, Largevls and fukutin indicated that DGC is associated with the normal physiology of the retina (Pillers et al., 1995; Kameya et al., 1997; Lee et al., 2005; Takeda et al., 2003).
