DOG - Deutsche Ophthalmologische Gesellschaft e.V.Kurzbeschreibung
Recent advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of retinal diseases have paved the way for the development of new therapeutic approaches. Protein homeostasis has been shown to be important in keeping cellular mechanisms functioning, and once this homeostasis is severely affected, survival of the cells is no longer granted, independent of the underlying pathology.Gebühren

Organisator/Vorsitzender: Knut Stieger | Gießen
Vorsitzender: Marius Adler | DresdenOne important pathway that has re-entered center stage is therefore neuroprotection for which several newly identified regulators of cell survival and viability have been identified. Preclinical studies are promising and the start of first in-human trials are likely to follow soon. The approval of Luxturna gene therapy in Europe in November 2018 has resulted in the treatment of a number of patients all over Europe, but has also shown that legislation and institutional support for this new class of medication can be important hurdles.

13:45Proteome centric target discovery for photoreceptor protection: the p97/VCP story
Due to high production rates in visual pigment and high metabolic activity photoreceptor cells are especially vulnerable to defects in protein homeostasis. The ATPase Valosine Containing Protein (p97/VCP) acts as a protein quality control checkpoint of membrane proteins and binds to rhodopsin before the protein is released from the ER towards plasma membrane localization. Inhibiting VCP ATPase activity pharmacologically, we have generated evidence for a strong and long-lasting rescue of degenerating rod photoreceptors in the RhoP23H transgenic rat suggesting VCP as a target to treat autosomal dominant RP. Protection correlates with restoration of physiological rhodopsin trafficking to rod outer segments, improved rod OS ultrastructure and an improved ERG after intravitreal injection of the inhibitors.
