VSX1 gene variants are associated with keratoconus in unrelated Korean patients.

Journal of human genetics - 1 Jan 2008

Mok Jee-Won, Baek Sun-Jin, Joo Choun-Ki

Abstract excerpt

Keratoconus is a bilateral ectatic disorder characterized by the central thinning of corneal tissue leading to visual impairment. To investigate the possibility of visual system homeobox 1 (VSXI) as a candidate susceptibility gene for Korean patients with keratoconus, we performed a mutation scre...
