http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/30895599http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a disease of the elderly in which central vision is lost because of degenerative changes of the macula. The current study investigated the association of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with AMD in the Pakistani population. Four SNPs were analyzed in this study: rs1061170 in the CFH, rs429608 near CFB, rs2230199 in the C3, and rs10490924 in ARMS2/HTRA1. This case-control association study was conducted on 300 AMD patients (125 wet AMD and 175 dry AMD) and 200 unaffected age- and gender-matched control individuals. The association of the SNP genotypes and allele frequency distributions were compared between patients and healthy controls, keeping age, gender, and smoking status as covariates. A significant genotype and variant allele association was found of rs10490924 in ARMS2/HTRA1 with wet AMD, while the SNPs in CFH, CFB, and C3 were not associated with AMD in the current Pakistani cohort. The lack of association of CFH, CFB, and C3 may be attributed to limited sample size. This study demonstrates that genetic causative factors of AMD differ among populations and supports the need for genetic association studies among cohorts from various populations to increase our global understanding of the disease pathogenesis."xsd:string
