OMIA group 1314

Retinal atrophy - Rod-cone dysplasia 3, PDE6A-related

The chain reaches the human disease retinitis pigmentosa 43, which Mondo defines as: “Any retinitis pigmentosa in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the PDE6A gene.”

The chain

From the animal disease to the drugs. The page shows what each step found and where the chain stopped. It does not say whether the animal is a model of a human disease.

  1. Animal disease

    Reached

    OMIA records it in 1 species entry marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    1 Mondo disease.

  3. Human gene

    Reached

    1 human gene.

  4. Target evidence

    Reached

    1 Open Targets association, with a best score of 0.71.

  5. Drugs

    Reached

    2 ChEMBL drugs, 2 approved. None has been tested for this disease.

Natural-model score

How complete and how well supported the chain to each human disease is, out of 100, by stated rules. It does not say that the animal is a validated model of the human disease. How the score works.

Species

The chain follows only the species entries that OMIA marks as a defect.

Species Scientific name OMIA entry A defect
dog Canis lupus familiaris OMIA:001314-9615 Yes

Genes

Each gene OMIA records for a species entry, and the human gene it reaches through Ensembl's orthologs.

Species Animal gene Human gene Ortholog
dog PDE6A phosphodiesterase 6A, cGMP-specific, rod, alpha NCBI Gene 403620 PDE6A Ensembl one to one

Human diseases

Two routes lead from an OMIA group to a Mondo human disease: OMIA's own Mondo link, and the group's OMIM numbers through Mondo's cross-references.

Mondo disease Name Found by
MONDO:0013437 retinitis pigmentosa 43 Any retinitis pigmentosa in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the PDE6A gene. Both routes

Target evidence

Each Open Targets association between one of the group's human genes and one of its human diseases, with its overall score and the score for each kind of evidence.

Human gene Human disease Score Evidence Kinds of evidence
PDE6A retinitis pigmentosa 43 0.71 100 Genetic association 0.94 Genetic literature 0.61 Animal model 0.58 Literature 0.05

Drugs

Drugs act on PDE6A, but none has been tested for this disease.

Drug Acts on How Latest stage Tested for this disease
Dipyridamole PDE6A inhibitor Approved No
Pentoxifylline PDE6A inhibitor Approved No

The drug data is ChEMBL's, under CC BY-SA 3.0, and came through Open Targets release 26.09.
