Association between p53 Codon 72 (Arg72Pro) Polymorphism and Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma in Iranian Patients
Background: Glaucomatous neuropathy is a type of cell death due to apoptosis. The p53 gene is one of the regulatory genes of apoptosis. Recently, the association between the p53 gene encoding for proline at codon 72 and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) has been studied in some ethnic groups. This study is the first association analysis of POAG and p53 codon 72 polymorphism in Iranian patients...
متن کاملPrimary open-angle glaucoma
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is an idiopathic disorder in which the resistance to outflow through the trabecular meshwork gradually increases and the intraocular pressure (IOP) rises, causing irreversible damage to the optic nerve POAG is the second most common cause of vision loss in the U.S. Usually asymptomatic until advanced visual field loss has occurred; less than 50% of those...
متن کاملScreening of CYP1B1 Arg368His as predominant mutation in North Indian primary open angle glaucoma and juvenile onset glaucoma patients
In India, mutations in Cytochrome P450 (CYP1B1) are a predominant cause of not only primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) but also involved in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and juvenile onset glaucoma (JOAG). After ethical clearance, 100 POAG patients, 30 primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) patients and 130 ethnically matched controls were recruited in this study. Genomic DNA was is...
متن کاملCorrelation between peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and fundus autofluorescence in primary open-angle glaucoma
PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and retinal pigment epithelium alterations in patients with advanced glaucomatous visual field defects. METHODS A consecutive, prospective series of 82 study eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma and advanced glaucomatous visual field defects were included in this study. All study participants underwent...
متن کاملCorrelation between macular changes and the peripapillary nerve fiber layer in primary open angle glaucoma
UNLABELLED Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness and the early diagnosis is crucial for treatment and follow-up in the progression of the disease. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the changes in mean macular thickness and volume and compare them with the mean thickness of the peripapillary nerve fiber layer in primary open angle glaucoma, using Time Domain (TD) optical coherence tomography ( OCT). ...
