Assessment of the association of matrix metalloproteinases with myopia, refractive error and ocular biometric measures in an Australian cohort.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Schache Maria, Baird Paul N

Abstract excerpt

Extracellular matrix proteins have been implicated in protein remodelling of the sclera in refractive error. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) falling into the collagenase (MMP1, MMP8, MMP13), gelatinase (MMP2, MMP9) and stromelysin (MMP3, MMP10, MMP11) functional groups are particularly important. We wished to assess their association with myopia, refractive error and ocular biometric measures in an...
