Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is an inheritable blinding disorder with clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Heterozygous variants in the CTNNB1 gene have been reported to cause FEVR. However, the pathogenic basis of CTNNB1-associated FEVR has not been fully explored. METHODS: Whole-exome sequencing was performed on the genomic DNA of probands. Dual-luciferase reporter assay, western...
