Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: This study was performed to evaluate the potential association of the tumor necrosis factor alpha inducible protein 3gene (TNFAIP3) polymorphisms with Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis (Fuchs' Syndrome) in a Chinese Han population. METHODS: Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs10499194, rs610604, rs7753873, rs5029928 and rs9494885 of TNFAIP3 were genotyped in 225 Fuchs' syndrome patients and...
