| PURPOSE:: To determine if paraoxonase 1 (PON1) gene polymorphisms have an effect on the risk of having age-related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS:: The study population consisted of 142 patients who were diagnosed with either exudative or atrophic AMD and 138 sex-and age-matched controls without AMD. Genotyping of the PON1 L55M and Q192R single-nucleotide polymorphisms was performed using real-time polymerase chain reaction and commercially produced kits. A full ophthalmic evaluation was performed in each subject, and all subjects were screened for hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and smoking history. RESULTS:: The PON1 MM and QQ genotypes were less frequent in patients with AMD than in control subjects (MM: 4 vs. 13%, P = 0.015; QQ: 15 vs. 27%, P = 0.020). A multivariate logistic regression analysis was also conducted. After adjusting for age, gender, and the prevalence of smoking, hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia, the MM and QQ genotypes (MM/QQ vs. LL + LM/QR + RR) were found to be associated with a decreased risk of AMD (MM: odds ratio = 0.24, P = 0.007, 95% confidence interval: 0.09-0.68; QQ: odds ratio = 0.46, P = 0.013, 95% confidence interval: 0.25-0.85). CONCLUSION:: The authors found that subjects with the PON1 MM and QQ genotypes had a lower risk of AMD. © by Ophthalmic Communication Society Inc. |
