Inflammation and Oxidative Stress Gene Variability in Retinal Detachment Patients with and without Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy.

ABSTRACT: This study investigated the association between certain genetic variations and the risk of developing proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) after surgery. The study was conducted on 192 patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) who underwent 3-port pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). The distribution of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in genes involved in inflammation and oxidative stress associated with PVR pathways were analyzed among patients with and without postoperative PVR grade C1 or higher. A total of 7 defined SNPs of 5 genes were selected for genotyping: rs4880 (SOD2); rs1001179 (CAT); rs1050450 (GPX1); rs1143623, rs16944, rs1071676 (IL1B); rs2910164 (MIR146A) using competitive allele-specific polymerase chain reacti
