Gene transfer to the human trabecular meshwork by anterior segment perfusion.

abstract：PURPOSE:Myopia (short sightedness) is a complex trait influenced by as yet unidentified genetic factors. To date, there have been four myopia susceptibility loci (MYP7 to -10) identified in twin studies, but these are yet to be independently verified. In an independent yet ethnically and phenotypically similar twin coh...

abstract：PURPOSE:Mutations of the CHM gene underlie the X-linked chorioretinal degeneration choroideremia (CHM). The affected gene product, Rab Escort Protein (REP)1, mediates the posttranslational prenyl modification of Rab GTPases. In patients with CHM, the related REP2 partially compensates for the loss of function of REP1. ...
