Genetic polymorphisms of catalase (rs7943316), glutathione peroxidase-1 (rs1050450), and transferrin (rs8177178) in keratoconus on a limited group of Russian patients
Abstract:A pilot study of the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms in catalase (rs7943316), glutathione peroxidase-1 (rs1050450), and transferrin (rs8177178) genes with the risk of keratoconus development was conducted in a sample of Russian patients. Genotyping was performed by analyzing the polymorphism of the lengths of restriction fragments using a polymerase chain reaction. Venous blood samples from 25 patients with keratoconus treated at the Ophthalmology Clinic of the Kirov Military medical Academy in … Show more
