Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is an inherited retinal dystrophy that causes childhood blindness. Photoreceptors are especially sensitive to an intronic mutation in the cilia-related gene CEP290, which causes missplicing and premature termination, but the basis of this sensitivity is unclear. Here, we generated differentiated photoreceptors in three-dimensional optic cups and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) from iPSCs with this common CEP290 mutation to investigate disease mechanisms and evaluate candidate therapies. iPSCs differentiated normally into RPE and optic cups, despite abnormal CEP290 splicing and cilia defects. The highest levels of aberrant splicing and cilia defects were observed in optic cups, explaining the retinal-specific manifestation of this CEP290 mutation. Treating optic cups with an antisense morpholino effectively blocked aberrant splicing and restored expression of full-length CEP290, restoring normal cilia-based protein trafficking. These results provide a mechanistic understanding of the retina-specific phenotypes in CEP290 LCA patients and potential strategies for therapeutic intervention. Display omitted •Generation of 3D optic cups with opsin-expressing photoreceptors and outer segments•A CEP290-LCA intronic mutation creates a cryptic exon that impairs ciliogenesis•Aberrant splicing is increased in photoreceptors compared to other cell types•Antisense oligonucleotide can block the cryptic exon and restore CEP290 function Parfitt et al. derived human 3D optic cup organoids to model LCA, a retinal dystrophy associated with aberrant CEP290 splicing leading to cilia defects. Retinal-specific defects result from higher aberrant CEP290 splicing in photoreceptors versus other cells, and treating cups with an antisense oligonucleotide restored CEP290 protein, function, and ciliation.
