Genome wide-association study identifies novel loci in the Primary Open-Angle African American Glaucoma Genetics (POAAGG) study

2020-02-28

Abstract excerpt

Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, disproportionately affects African Americans. Large-scale POAG genetic studies have focused on individuals of European and Asian ancestry, limiting our understanding of disease biology. Here we report genetic analysis of the largest-ever deeply phenotyped African American population (n=5950), identifying a novel POAG-associa...
