Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a common eye disorder that can lead to irreversible vision loss. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several genetic loci associated with POAG risk, the specific causative genes and mechanisms remain unclear. Methods: This study utilized the Unified Test for Molecular Signature (UTMOST) for cross-tissue analysis, along with Functional...
