Using FDA-approved Small Molecule Drug Reserpine and related compounds (especially Halofantrine) To Protect Photoreceptors In Inherited Retinal Degenerations And Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Summary: The National Eye Institute seeks research co-development partners and/or licensees for a therapy using an FDA-approved small molecule drug reserpine (and related compounds especially halofantrine) that prevents photoreceptor cell death in retinal degenerations. Description of Technology: Inherited Retinal Degenerations (IRD), such as Leber...

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Derived from Patients with CEP290-associated Ciliopathies and Unaffected Family Members

Abstract: Approximately one-third of non-syndromic retinal dystrophies involve a defect in a ciliary protein. Non-syndromic retinal ciliopathies include retinitis pigmentosa, cone dystrophy, cone-rod dystrophy, macular dystrophy, and Leber-congenital amaurosis (LCA). Many CEP290-LCA patients also exhibit auditory and olfactory defects. Induced pluripotent...
