Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma-associated Genetic Polymorphisms in Northeast Iran
Purpose: To evaluate the association of five different polymorphisms from a genome-wide-associated study with susceptibility to glaucoma in the northeast Iranian population. Methods: Hundred and thirty patients with primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and 130 healthy controls were genotyped...

description | Purpose: To evaluate the association of five different polymorphisms from a genome-wide-associated study with susceptibility to glaucoma in the northeast Iranian population.
Methods: Hundred and thirty patients with primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and 130 healthy controls were genotyped for the polymorphic regions with the aid of tetra-amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction. The association of these variants with the disease susceptibility was measured statistically with the logistic regression method.
Results: Hundred and thirty patients with PACG (53 males, 77 females) with a mean age of 64.5
±
6.2 years and 130 healthy control subjects (51 males, 79 females) with a mean age of 64.0
±
5.7 years were selected for evaluation. There was a significant association between rs3816415 (P = 0.005), rs736893 (P
<
0.001), rs7494379 (P
<
0.001), and rs1258267 (P = 0.02) with PACG susceptibility. This association could not be shown for rs3739821.
Conclusion: It was revealed that studied variants in GLIS3, EPDR1, FERMT2, and CHAT genes can contribute to the incidence of PACG. Additional studies in other populations are needed to evaluate DPM2-FAM102A. |
