Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To evaluate possible role of the UTS2 gene polymorphisms (Thr21Met and Ser89Asn) in the genetic susceptibility to diabetic retinopathy (DR) in a Turkish population. METHODS: Total number of 280 patients with DR (nonproliferative DR 170 and proliferative DR 110), 291 nondiabetic healthy controls, and 113 diabetic controls (without DR) were included to this study. The detection of UTS2 gene polymorphisms...
