Dark-adapted threshold and electroretinogram for diagnosis of Usher syndrome

Although there is an association of abnormal dark-adapted threshold and full-field electroretinogram at young ages in Usher patients, it appears that a small but important proportion of patients would not be detected by tests of retinal function alone.

A new complex homozygous mutation c.379_385delAACTACTinsGATTCCTTATATACCATTGTAGTCTTACTGCTTTTGGTGAACACA (p.Asn127Aspfs*23) is detected in a 36‐year‐old man, which suggests that the involvement of ABHD12 in polyneuropathies is possibly underestimated.

Inhibitor profiling revealed striking potency differences between hAB HD6 and hABHD12, a finding that, when combined with the substrate profiling data, should facilitate further efforts toward the design of potent and selective inhibitors, especially those targeting hABhd12, which currently lacks such inhibitors.
