New loci and coding variants confer risk for age-related macular degeneration in East Asians
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a major cause of blindness, but presents differently in Europeans and Asians. Here, we perform a genome-wide and exome-wide association study on 2,119 patients with exudative AMD and 5,691 controls, with independent replication in 4,226 patients and 10,289 controls, all of East Asian descent, as part of The Genetics of AMD in Asians (GAMA) Consortium. W...
متن کاملA large genome-wide association study of age-related macular degeneration highlights contributions of rare and common variants
Advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the elderly, with limited therapeutic options. Here we report on a study of > 2 million variants, including 63,7 4 directly genotyped, mostly rare, protein-altering variants. Analyzing 6, 44 patients and 7,832 controls, we identify 52 independently associated common and rare variants (P < 5 × 0−8) distributed a...

متن کاملProtective coding variants in CFH and PELI3 and a variant near CTRB1 are associated with age-related macular degeneration†.
Although numerous common age-related macular degeneration (AMD) alleles have been discovered using genome-wide association studies, substantial disease heritability remains unexplained. We sought to identify additional common and rare variants associated with advanced AMD. A total of 4,332 cases and 25,268 controls of European ancestry from three different populations were genotyped using the I...
متن کاملTranspupilary thermotherapy of occult subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age related macular degeneration
Abstract Background: Transpupillary thermotherapy is a new treatment for subfoveal choroidal neovascularization which needs further evaluation. This study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of transpupillary thermotherapy on regression of occult subfoveal choroidal neovascularization with or without pigment epithelial detachment in patients with age-related macular degeneration. Methods: In a ...
متن کاملDifferent impact of high-density lipoprotein-related genetic variants on polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy and neovascular age-related macular degeneration in a Chinese Han population.
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) are both major serosanguinous maculopathies among the Asian elderly. They are similar in phenotype. Genetic variants in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) pathway were discovered to be associated with AMD in two genome-wide association studies. In this study with a Chinese Han cohort, we investigated the...
