Association of matrix metalloproteinase gene polymorphisms with refractive error in Amish and Ashkenazi families.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science - 1 Oct 2010

Wojciechowski Robert, Bailey-Wilson Joan E, Stambolian Dwight

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are involved in scleral extracellular matrix remodeling and have shown differential expression in experimental myopia. The genetic association of refractive error and polymorphisms in MMP and TIMP genes...
