Macular Degeneration Clinical Trial
Official title:
Does Complement Factor H Gene Polymorphism Play a Role in the Regulation of Vascular Tone in the Choroid?
Age related macular degeneration (AMD) is a multifactorial disease with a strong genetic
component. Most importantly a genetic polymorphism in the gene encoding for the complement
factor H (CFH) has been recently identified which is highly associated with an increased
risk of developing AMD. This Tyr402His polymorphism located on chromosome 1q31 has been
implicated to play a role in the development of the disease.
Given that it is known that impaired regulation of choroidal vascular tone is present in
patients with AMD, the current study seeks to investigate whether the Tyr402His polymorphism
is associated with altered choroidal autoregulation in healthy subjects. For this purpose a
total of 100 healthy volunteers will be included in order to test the hypothesis that an
impaired regulation of choroidal blood flow is present in subjects with homozygous Tyr402His
variant.
