Role of MYOC A445V mutation on glaucomatous degeneration of human retinal ganglion cells.

Listed in NCBI GEO

Glaucoma is a group of diseases that results in the death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), leading to permanent blindness.

Description

Myocilin is one of the genetic factors associated with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) with or without ocular hypertension. Using myocilin-dependent POAG patient-derived iPSC RGCs, we have shown that RGCs harboring the myocilin mutation (A445V) have dysregulated unfolded protein response with developmental and functional abnormalities, which may make them suscepetible to degeneration regardless of ocular hypertension.
