rs3753394 Complement Factor H (CFH) Gene Polymorphism in Patients with Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) in Indonesian Population

نویسندگان

چکیده

Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration (nAMD) is one of the major factors for blindness and impaired visual acuity in elderly people. The aim this study was CFH gene screening Age-Related patients Indonesia. This performed 106 AMD 104 controls genomic markers Complement Factor H ( ). diagnosis carried out by retinal specialists based on color fundus photography optical coherence tomography. Informed consent given to then proceed blood sampling recording body parameters (BMI, smoking, other systemic diseases). polymorphisms were analyzed PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). There no association between genetics with nAMD. From research can be inferred that nAMD insignificant.

Complement factor H polymorphism and age-related macular degeneration.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common, late-onset, and complex trait with multiple risk factors. Concentrating on a region harboring a locus for AMD on 1q25-31, the ARMD1 locus, we tested single-nucleotide polymorphisms for association with AMD in two independent case-control populations. Significant association (P = 4.95 x 10(-10)) was identified within the regulation of complemen...

Haplotypes in the Complement Factor H (CFH) Gene: Associations with Drusen and Advanced Age-Related Macular Degeneration

BACKGROUND Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness in the Western world, is a complex disease that affects people over 50 years old. The complement factor H (CFH) gene has been repeatedly shown to be a major factor in determining susceptibility to the advanced form of the condition. We aimed to better understand the functional role of this gene in the AMD disease ...

A common haplotype in the complement regulatory gene factor H (HF1/CFH) predisposes individuals to age-related macular degeneration.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most frequent cause of irreversible blindness in the elderly in developed countries. Our previous studies implicated activation of complement in the formation of drusen, the hallmark lesion of AMD. Here, we show that factor H (HF1), the major inhibitor of the alternative complement pathway, accumulates within drusen and is synthesized by the retinal...
