PURPOSE: To describe the retinal phenotype associated with the p.Pro101Thr BEST1 variant. DESIGN: Retrospective, observational case series. PARTICIPANTS: Patients diagnosed with bestrophinopathies in which molecular genetic testing identified the p.Pro101Thr BEST1 as well as healthy carriers among their first-degree relatives. METHODS: Medical records were reviewed to obtain data on family history and ophthalmic examinations, including retinal imaging. The imaging protocol included OCT and fundus autofluorescence using Spectralis HRA + OCT (Heidelberg Engineering). Genetic analysis was performed by next-generation sequencing. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Results of ophthalmic examinations and multimodal imaging features of retinal phenotypes. RESULTS: The c.301C>A, p.Pro101Thr BEST1 missense variant was identified as the causative variant in 8 individuals (all men) from 5 families, accounting for 13% of cases (8/61) and 10% of pathogenic alleles (9/93) in our cohort of patients affected by bestrophinopathies. Seven individuals (14 eyes) had the variant in heterozygous status: all eyes had a hyperopic refractive error (median spherical equivalent of + 3.75 diopters [D]) and 4 individuals had a macular dystrophy with mildly reduced visual acuity (median of 20/25 Snellen), whereas the other 3 were asymptomatic carriers. On multimodal retinal imaging, 5 (36%) out of 14 eyes had subclinical bestrophinopathy, 4 (29%) had typical findings of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy (AOFVD), and the remaining 5 (36%) displayed a pattern dystrophy-like phenotype. Follow-up data were available for 6 subjects, demonstrating clinical stability up to 11 years, in both subclinical and clinical forms. An additional patient with autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy was found to harbor the p.Pro101Thr variant in homozygosity. CONCLUSIONS: The p.Pro101Thr BEST1 variant is likely a frequent cause of bestrophinopathy in the Italian population and can result in autosomal dominant macular dystrophies with incomplete penetrance and mild clinical manifestations as well as autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy. The spectrum of autosomal dominant maculopathy includes the typical AOFVD and a pattern dystrophy-like phenotype.
