Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To investigate the Met72Thr (T/C) polymorphism (rs1136287) of pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) gene exon 3 in unrelated Taiwan Chinese patients with late age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and control subjects without AMD. DESIGN: Retrospective case-control study. METHODS: We...
