Diagnosis and prediction ofprimary open-angle glaucoma by the level of local cytokine

Медицинская иммунология, 2020
The incidence of glaucoma is rather high in different countries, being the leading cause of visual loss in the population, thus presuming relevance of the search for new and informative methods of diagnosing this disease.

Primary open-angle glaucoma genes [PDF]

Eye, 2011
A substantial fraction of glaucoma has a genetic basis. About 5% of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is currently attributed to single-gene or Mendelian forms of glaucoma (ie glaucoma caused by mutations in myocilin or optineurin). Mutations in these genes have a high likelihood of leading to glaucoma and are rarely seen in normal subjects.

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma [PDF]

La Revue de medecine interne, 2020
Primary open-angle glaucoma is a progressive chronic optic neuropathy, typically bilateral, that occurs after the age of 40 years. It is the second leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world. Primary open-angle glaucoma corresponds to a progressive loss of retinal ganglion cell characterized by an excavation of the optic disc associated with ...

Biomarkers of primary open-angle glaucoma [PDF]

Expert Review of Ophthalmology, 2010
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a primary neuronal disease of the optic nerve without a definable cause, and is often associated with increased intraocular pressure. Worldwide, POAG is the second leading cause of blindness; there are 45 million people today with POAG and bilateral blindness is present in 4.5 million of these.

MicroRNAs as biomarkers in glaucoma and potential therapeutic targets

Neural Regeneration Research, 2022
Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease in which optic nerve damage and visual field defects occur. It is a leading cause of irreversible blindness. Its pathogenesis is largely unknown although several risk factors have been identified, with an increase ...

Mitochondrial damage in the trabecular meshwork occurs only in primary open-angle glaucoma and in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma.

PLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundOpen-angle glaucoma appears to be induced by the malfunction of the trabecular meshwork cells due to injury induced by oxidative damage and mitochondrial impairment.
