Retinitis pigmentosa 37(RP37)

MedGen UID:
410004
Concept ID:
C1970163
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: RP37
 
Gene (location): NR2E3 (15q23)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0012625
OMIM®: 611131

Definition

Any retinitis pigmentosa in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the NR2E3 gene. [from MONDO]

Clinical features

From HPO
Photophobia
MedGen UID:
43220
Concept ID:
C0085636
Sign or Symptom
Excessive sensitivity to light with the sensation of discomfort or pain in the eyes due to exposure to bright light.
Night blindness
MedGen UID:
10349
Concept ID:
C0028077
Disease or Syndrome
Inability to see well at night or in poor light.
Cystoid macular degeneration
MedGen UID:
472900
Concept ID:
C0154850
Disease or Syndrome
A form of macular degeneration characterized by the presence of multiple cysts in the macula.
Red-green dyschromatopsia
MedGen UID:
102324
Concept ID:
C0155016
Disease or Syndrome
Difficulty with discriminating red and green hues.
Blue color blindness
MedGen UID:
57827
Concept ID:
C0155017
Disease or Syndrome
Tritanopia is an autosomal dominant disorder of human vision characterized by a selective deficiency of blue spectral sensitivity (Weitz et al., 1992).
Reduced visual acuity
MedGen UID:
65889
Concept ID:
C0234632
Finding
Diminished clarity of vision.
Constriction of peripheral visual field
MedGen UID:
68613
Concept ID:
C0235095
Finding
An absolute or relative decrease in retinal sensitivity extending from edge (periphery) of the visual field in a concentric pattern. The visual field is the area that is perceived simultaneously by a fixating eye.
Nuclear cataract
MedGen UID:
140274
Concept ID:
C0392557
Finding
A nuclear cataract is an opacity or clouding that develops in the lens nucleus. That is, a nuclear cataract is one that is located in the center of the lens. The nucleus tends to darken changing from clear to yellow and sometimes brown.
Posterior subcapsular cataract
MedGen UID:
163646
Concept ID:
C0858617
Acquired Abnormality
A type of cataract affecting the posterior pole of lens immediately adjacent to ('beneath') the Lens capsule.
Undetectable light- and dark-adapted electroretinogram
MedGen UID:
867212
Concept ID:
C4021570
Finding
Absence of the combined rod-and-cone response on electroretinogram.
Rod-cone dystrophy
MedGen UID:
1632921
Concept ID:
C4551714
Disease or Syndrome
An inherited retinal disease subtype in which the rod photoreceptors appear to be more severely affected than the cone photoreceptors. Typical presentation is with nyctalopia (due to rod dysfunction) followed by loss of mid-peripheral field of vision, which gradually extends and leaves many patients with a small central island of vision due to the preservation of macular cones.
Pigmentary retinopathy
MedGen UID:
1643295
Concept ID:
C4551715
Disease or Syndrome
An abnormality of the retina characterized by pigment deposition. It is typically associated with migration and proliferation of macrophages or retinal pigment epithelial cells into the retina; melanin from these cells causes the pigmentary changes. Pigmentary retinopathy is a common final pathway of many retinal conditions and is often associated with visual loss.
