Associations of ARMS2 and CFH Gene Polymorphisms with Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration
This study aimed to determine the association of A69S, del443ins54, and Y402H polymorphisms with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) for the first time in an Indonesian population. Our case-control study involved 104 nAMD and 100 control subjects. AMD diagnosis was evaluated by retin...

Summary: | This study aimed to determine the association of
A69S,
del443ins54, and
Y402H polymorphisms with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) for the first time in an Indonesian population.
Our case-control study involved 104 nAMD and 100 control subjects. AMD diagnosis was evaluated by retinal specialists based on color fundus photography and optical coherence tomography. The polymorphisms on
Y402H and
A69S were analyzed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), whereas
del443ins54 was evaluated by PCR-based assay.
Significant allelic associations with nAMD were detected on all polymorphisms (P |
