Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an important regulator of angiogenesis and a target for inhibition therapy in wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The purpose of this study was to examine whether genetic variation in the VEGF gene is associated with AMD and, especiall...
