Optineurin-associated glaucoma

特許 係属中 Optineurin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the OPTN gene.[1][2][3] This gene encodes the coiled-coil containing protein optineurin. Optineurin may play a role in normal-tension glaucoma and adult-onset primary open angle glaucoma. Optineurin interacts with adenovirus E3-14.7K protein and may utilize tumor necrosis factor-alpha or Fas-ligand pathways to mediate apoptosis, inflammation or vasoconstriction.
