Research Abstract |
To detect the genomic copy number variation(s) (CNV) which affect the onset of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), 44 members from 34 families with the disease were subjected to the microarray assay. Of 1195 CNV loci found, 8 (6 sites of deletion and 2 of duplication) of patients-specific ones were novel or very rare and considered to change the dosage of gene. Deletion loci contained 7 genes and duplication ones 5 genes. These 12 genes possibly cause POAG by the abnormal increase or decrease of gene copy number.
