Research Abstract |
To examine the susceptible gene for optic neuritis, we collected the clinical data and DNA samples from 73 cases with optic neuritis. We examined SNP types using DNA microarray (Axiom Genome-Wide Human DNA Array) in 51 cases and performed genome wide association analysis to compare with the SNP data of 419 healthy volunteers. Consequently, we found several candidates genes for optic neuritis near the region of short arm in chromosome 2 (C2orf61), short arm in chromosome 4 (RAB28, KCNIP4), short arm in chromosome 9 (GLDC, HAUS6, FAM154A), long arm in chromosome 16 (CBLN1) and short arm in chromosome 17 (CACNG4), that have weak association for optic neuritis.
