Research Abstract |
Glaucoma is a multifactorial disease influenced by genetic and environment factors. The molecular mechanism of the glaucoma onset still remains unclear. In this study we focused on 4 genes, optineurin, WDR36, vav2, and vav3 to develop and characterize the mouse model for glaucoma.
