Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To assess the genetic association of transcription factor 4 (TCF4) intronic polymorphisms and CTG18.1 allele in individuals with Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) individuals from a sample Indian population. METHODS: Forty-four FECD patients and 108 unrelated age-matched controls were recruited with informed consent for this study. Three, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) spanning the...
