Increased Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Mononuclear Blood Cells of Normal-Tension Glaucoma Patients

1 Jan 2004

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Glaucomatous optic neuropathy involves tissue remodeling by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). In this study we investigated MMP gene expression in circulating leukocytes isolated from normal tension glaucoma (NTG) patients in comparison to healthy controls. METHODS: Blood samples were collected from 6 glaucoma patients and 6 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Leukocytes were separated using...
