Targeted Expression of TGFBIp Peptides in Mouse and Human Tissue by MALDI-Mass Spectrometry Imaging
Stromal corneal dystrophies are a group of hereditary disorders caused by mutations in the TGFBI gene. The mutant TGFBIp is prone to protein aggregation and the mutant protein gets deposited in the cornea, leading to severe visual impairment.

HEREDITARY CORNEAL DYSTROPHIES
The study of hereditary corneal degenerations has received considerable clarification by the work of Bucklers. 1 Since 1890, when Groenouw 2 reported the first case, a great many types of familial corneal dystrophy have been described which have differed somewhat in the size, shape and position of the opacities.

CLASSIFICATION AND TREATMENT OF HEREDITARY CORNEAL DYSTROPHIES
AS A RULE hereditary degenerations of the cornea can be clearly distinguished from other corneal affections by their bilateral aspect, more or less typical morphology, and slow progression, with absence of vascularization. In addition, the fundamental criteria of all heredodegenerations apply equally to corneal degenerations: onset at approximately the

Genetics in Ophthalmology II–Anterior Segment Diseases
Genetic diseases are congenital or acquired hereditary diseases that result from structural/functional disorders of the human genome. Today, the genetic factors that play a role in many diseases are being highlighted with the rapid progress in the field
