The early angiogenesis of the retina and its iBRB is a delicate process that is mediated by the canonical Norrin Wnt-signaling pathway in retinal endothelial cells. Pathogenic variants in genes that play key roles within this pathway, such as NDP, FZD4, TSPAN12, and LRP5, have been associated with the incidence of these retinal diseases. Recent efforts to further elucidate the etiology of these conditions have not only highlighted their multigenic nature but have also resulted in the discovery of pathological variants in additional genes such as CTNNB1, KIF11, and ZNF408, some of which operate outside of the Norrin Wnt-signaling pathway. Recent discoveries of FEVR-linked variants in two other Catenin genes (CTNND1, CTNNA1) and the Endoplasmic Reticulum Membrane Complex Subunit-1 gene (EMC1) suggest that we will continue to find additional genes that impact the neural retinal vasculature, especially in multi-syndromic conditions. The goal of this review is to briefly highlight the current understanding of the roles of their encoded proteins in retinal endothelial cells to understand the essential functional mechanisms that can be altered to cause these very rare pediatric retinal vascular diseases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cells12212579","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,5]],"date-time":"2023-11-05T07:35:06Z","timestamp":1699169706000},"page":"2579","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Mechanisms Underlying Rare Inherited Pediatric Retinal Vascular Diseases: FEVR, Norrie Disease, Persistent Fetal Vascular Syndrome"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Vincent","family":"Le","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Research Institute, Oakland University, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"},{"name":"Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gabrielle","family":"Abdelmessih","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Research Institute, Oakland University, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wendy A.","family":"Dailey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Research Institute, Oakland University, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cecille","family":"Pinnock","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Research Institute, Oakland University, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Victoria","family":"Jobczyk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Research Institute, Oakland University, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Revati","family":"Rashingkar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kimberly A.","family":"Drenser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Research Institute, Oakland University, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"},{"name":"Associated Retinal Consultants P.C., Royal Oak, MI 48073, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4751-7440","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kenneth P.","family":"Mitton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Research Institute, Oakland University, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"},{"name":"Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, Rochester, MI 48309, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"522","article-title":"Development of the Mouse Retinal Vasculature: Angiogenesis versus Vasculogenesis","volume":"43","author":"Fruttiger","year":"2002","journal-title":"Investig.
