Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Little is known about the role of genetic variants in the early stages of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We aimed to investigate how genetic variations within five well-defined genes relate to AMD severity. METHODS: We analysed SNPs in the genes for complement factor H (CFH), age-related maculopathy susceptibility (ARMS2), HtrA serine peptidase 1 (HtrA1), complement factor B (CFB), and complement...
