Gene expression profiling of orbital muscles in treatment-resistant ophthalmoplegic myasthenia gravis
Abstract Background Unbiased in silico approaches applied to genome-wide data prioritized putative functional gene variants associating with treatment-resistant ophthalmoplegic myasthenia gravis (OP-MG). Although altered expression of genes harbouring these variants, or associated pathways, were sho...
