C2 and CFB genes in age-related maculopathy and joint action with CFH and LOC387715 genes.
Age-related maculopathy (ARM) is a common cause of visual impairment in the elderly populations of industrialized countries and significantly affects the quality of life of those suffering from the disease. Variants within two genes, the complement factor H (CFH) and the poorly characterized LOC3877...
