Abstract excerpt
Bietti crystalline corneoretinal dystrophy (BCD) is an autosomal recessive retinal degenerative disease characterized by yellow-white crystal deposits in the posterior pole, degeneration of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and sclerosis of the choroid. Mutations in the cytochrome P450 4V2 gene (CYP4V2) cause BCD, which is associated with lipid metabolic disruption. The use of gene-replacement therapy in BCD...
