| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To explore the genes that responsible for prostaglandin metabolism in ocular tissue, SNP analyses by using DMET (Drug Metabolizing Enzyme and Transporter)-Chip (Affymetrix) were performed among 10 latanoprost high responder and 10 latanoprost low responder subjects.
Drug response against tafulprost and travoprost was tested in about 200 subjects by the multicenter clinical study.
