Journal ArticleDOI
The genetic aspects of adult-onset glaucoma: a perspective from the Greater Toronto area.
Donna E. Williams-Lyn,John G. Flanagan,Yvonne M. Buys,Graham E. Trope,John H. Fingert,Edwin M. Stone,Elise Heon +6 more
TL;DR: The observed prevalence of myocilin gene mutations was comparable to that previously reported, and such mutations do not appear to spare any ethnic group.
Journal ArticleDOI
The optic nerve head in myocilin glaucoma.
Alex W. Hewitt,Alex W. Hewitt,Sonya L Bennett,John H. Fingert,Richard L. Cooper,Edwin M. Stone,Jamie E Craig,David A. Mackey,David A. Mackey +8 more
TL;DR: No major structural or morphologic difference of the ONH was detected in pooled data from subjects who had myocilin mutations compared with data from individuals with nonmyOCilin glaucoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.
TL;DR: Investigation of clinical characteristics of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy in three families found that familial NA-AION had an earlier onset and a higher frequency of bilateral disease, and the G4132A mitochondrial variant was not detected outside family 3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and molecular characterization of a family affected with X-linked ocular albinism (OA1)
Byron L. Lam,John H. Fingert,Bryce C. Shutt,E. Mitchell Singleton,Lawrence M. Merin,Harry H. Brown,Val C. Sheffield,Edwin M. Stone +7 more
TL;DR: Mutation screening of the OA1 gene can be used to confirm the diagnosis in isolated males of some families, and genetic linkage analysis can beused to accurately identify carriers even when the specific mutation cannot be identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of variants in the selectin genes in age-related macular degeneration
Robert F. Mullins,Jessica M. Skeie,James C. Folk,Frances Solivan-Timpe,Thomas A. Oetting,Jian Huang,Kai Wang,Edwin M. Stone,Edwin M. Stone,John H. Fingert +9 more
TL;DR: It is unlikely that common ancestral variants in the other selectin genes (SELE and SELL) are risk factors for AMD, and subtype analysis showed that a single SNP located within an intron of SELP is statistically associated with dry AMD in this cohort.
