Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of apolipoprotein E (APOE) polymorphisms in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). METHODS: A cohort of 400 unrelated Chinese POAG patients was examined, including 294 cases of high tension glaucoma (HTG) and 106 with normal tension glaucoma (NTG). Also studied were 300 unrelated Chinese control subjects. The genotypes of the APOE polymorphisms in exon 4 and in the promoter at positions...
