Kyorin University

Status: Completed

Conditions: MicroRNA Expression Profile in Human Vitreous

Details and patient eligibility

About

MicroRNAs are important regulators of many cellular functions but their expression profile in human vitreous is still unclear. Aim of this study is to investigate microRNA expression profile by PCR in human vitreous of macula hole patients which is suggested to be similar to that of healthy patients.

Enrollment: 8 patients

Sex: Female

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Female macula hole patients without previous ocular or systemic disease.

Trial design

8 participants in 1 patient group

human vitreous, human blood serum, PCR

Description:

Vitreous and bloodserum samples from macula hole patients without previous ocular or systemic disease

Treatment:

Procedure: human vitreous and blood serum sampling, PCR
