Retinitis pigmentosa is an inherited disease, in which mutations different types of genes lead to the death photoreceptors and loss visual function. Although retinitis most common type retinal dystrophy, a clear line therapy has not yet been defined. In this review, we will focus on therapeutic aspect attempt define advantages disadvantages protocols therapies. The role some therapies, such as antioxidant agents or gene therapy, established for years now. Many clinical trials causing RP have conducted, approval voretigene nepavorec by FDA important step forward. Nonetheless, even if promising treatment these patients, other innovative strategies, stem cell transplantation hyperbaric oxygen shown be safe improve quality during trials. disease remains challenge, hope find solution soon possible.

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) poses a significant threat to eye health worldwide, with prevalence rates of 1 in 5000 worldwide. This genetically diverse retinopathy is characterized by the loss photoreceptor cells and atrophy retinal pigment epithelium. Despite involvement more than 3000 mutations across approximately 90 genes its onset, finding an effective treatment has been challenging for considerable time. However, advancements scientific research, especially gene therapy, are significantly expanding options this most prevalent inherited disease, discovery new compounds, gene-editing techniques, loci offering hope treatments. Gene promising technology, utilizes viral or non-viral vectors correct genetic defects either replacing silencing disease-causing genes, potentially leading complete recovery. In review, we primarily focus on latest applications editing research RP. We delve into associated RP discuss genome-editing strategies currently employed various mutations.

Mutations in the rhodopsin (RHO) gene are predominant causes of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP). Given diverse gain-of-function mutations, therapeutic strategies targeting specific sequences face significant challenges. Here, we provide a universal approach to conquer this problem: have devised CRISPR-Cas12i-based, mutation-independent knockout and replacement compound therapy carried by dual AAV2/8 system. In study, successfully delayed progression retinal degeneration classic mouse disease model RhoP23H, also RhoP347S, new native mutation developed. Our research expands horizon potential options for future treatments RHO-mediated adRP.

Retinitis pigmentosa, or RP, is a group of inherited retinal degenerations involving progressive loss photoreceptor cells- rods and cones- ultimately causing severe vision blindness. although very common ailment, continues to be an incurable disease with little done medically. However, the breakthroughs in gene therapy stem cell transplantation recent years, new door has been opened treatment RP. This narrative review summarizes pathomolecular mechanisms focusing on genetic molecular abnormalities that lead process degeneration. In this section, we talk about current theories how RP develops, mutations, oxidative stress, inflammation. We also delve into therapeutic approaches such as therapy, genome surgery, which are designed either replace repair damaged photoreceptors restore enhance life patient.

CRISPR/Cas13 system, recognized for its compact size and specificity in targeting RNA, is currently employed RNA degradation. However, the potential of various subtypes, particularly concerning knockdown endogenous transcripts, remains to be comprehensively characterized plants. Here we present a full spectrum editing profiles seven Cas13 orthologs from five distinct subtypes: VI-A (LwaCas13a), VI-B (PbuCas13b), VI-D (RfxCas13d), VI-X (Cas13x.1 Cas13x.2), VI-Y (Cas13y.1 Cas13y.2). A systematic evaluation effects on two transcripts (GhCLA GhPGF cotton) as well an virus (TMV tobacco) reveals that RfxCas13d, Cas13x.1, Cas13x.2 exhibit enhanced stability with efficiencies ranging 58 80%, closely followed by Cas13y.1 Cas13y.2. Notably, both Cas13x.1 can simultaneously degrade through tRNA-crRNA cassette approach, achieving up 50%. Furthermore, different enable varying degrees transcript minimal off-target effects, generating germplasms diverse mutant phenotypes. Transgenic tobacco plants show significant reductions damage, along mild oxidative stress accumulation viral particles after TMV infection. In conclusion, our study presents efficient reliable platform transcriptome holds promise plant functional research future crop improvement.
