The AGBL5 gene encodes for the Cytoplasmic Carboxypeptidase 5 (CCP5), an α-tubulin deglutamylase that cleaves the γ-carboxyl-linked branching point of glutamylated tubulin. To date, pathogenic variants in AGBL5 have been associated only with isolated retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Hearing loss has not been reported in AGBL5-caused retinal disease.

Exploring non-coding regions is increasingly gaining importance in the diagnosis of inherited retinal dystrophies. Deep-intronic variants causing aberrant splicing have been identified, prompting the development of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) to modulate splicing. We performed a screening of five previously described deep-intronic variants among monoallelic patients with Usher syndrome (USH) or isolated retinitis pigmentosa.

Article Synopsis
  • Hyperphosphatemia is common in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients and can lead to poor health outcomes; researchers explored whether weekly creatinine clearance (CrCl) is a better indicator of serum phosphate levels compared to urea clearance.
  • A study analyzed data from 16,796 PD patients across several institutions in North and South America, adjusting for various factors like age and gender, to determine the relationship between serum phosphate levels and both CrCl and urea Kt/V.
  • The findings indicated that while CrCl did not outperform urea Kt/V in predicting serum phosphate levels, incorporating CrCl into predictive models improved their overall accuracy, suggesting its importance in managing phosphate levels in PD patients.
