Do variants in the ASB10 Gene Are Associated with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma?
Variants in ASB10 were found to be significantly associated with sporadic POAG in the Pakistani population. This supports previous findings that sequence variants in the ASB10 gene may act as a risk factor for glaucoma.
Increased growth in SGA compared with AGA preterm infants is reflected by increased collagen type I synthesis during the first six months post-term, suggesting that PINP and UHP correspond with growth in preterm infants. An explanation for decreased bone acquisition of SGA preterm infants may be that increased collagen type I synthesis is not directly followed by increased bone mineralization.
