Risk of open angle glaucoma due to tumor necrosis factor alpha gene polymorphisms

25 Feb 2016

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Axonal degeneration and retinal ganglion cell apoptosis in glaucoma is associated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), which is an important pro-inflammatory cytokine. The aim of this study was to determine the association between the risk of open angle glaucoma (OAG) in the Egyptian population and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) gene polymorphisms. METHODS: Sixty OAG patients and 26...
