Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The adenosine A(2A) receptor (A(2A)R) modulates collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix production in ocular tissues that contribute to eye growth and the development of myopia. We aimed to determine if single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in A(2A)R exons associates with high myopi...
