CERA researchers have successfully used an innovative gene therapy technique that could one day replace the need for regular eye injections for conditions including ‘wet’ age-related macular degeneration and diabetic eye disease. Their technique edits a person's RNA, which changes the genetic instructions that influence the way cells behave without permanently altering DNA. "We envision that RNA editing could become a viable alternative to invasive and costly eye injections that have become a fact of life for many people," says Head of Genetic Engineering Research Associate Professor Guei-Sheung (Rick) Liu.

Mutations in Bestrophin gene cause a genetic blindness that can be reversed with gene therapy. Translation to human clinical trials is currently in planning stages by Opus Genetics. We used ultra-high resolution OCT imaging to re-evaluate a primary and unusual feature: formation of micro-detachment between photoreceptors and the RPE layers following light exposure. Thanks to first author Vivian Wu, and collaborators Malgorzata Swider, Alexander Sumaroka, Valerie Dufour, Joe Vance, Tomas Aleman, MD, Gustavo Aguirre, and William Beltran. https://lnkd.in/epW7Auqy
