Abstract excerpt
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a complex retinal disease influenced by genetic and metabolic factors. Genetic variants impact disease susceptibility, while alterations in amino acid and purine metabolism are involved in AMD development. This study aimed to examine the association between the COL2A1 rs1635529 polymorphism and AMD, as well as its relation to specific metabolites. The study comprised 919...
