Patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and ophthalmic hypertension have an increased likelihood of developing occlusions (thrombosis) of the central retinal vein. Different groups of antihypertensive drugs differ in their mechanism of action and may affect concomitant ocular pathology, in particular, retinal edema, which occurs, for example, in occlusion of the central retinal vein. Used in most patients with glaucoma, prostaglandin analogs can contribute to the long-term preservation of macular edema due to the effect on the permeability of the vascular wall. Preparations of other pharmacological groups, reducing the production of aqueous humor, on the contrary, may contribute to its regression. Therefore, the question of choosing a drug for antihypertensive therapy in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and concomitant macular edema is relevant and is for further study.

Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is the most common form of glaucoma and the 2nd most common cause of irreversible vision loss in the United States. Nearly 67 million people have the disease worldwide including >3 million in the United States. A major risk factor for POAG is an elevation in intraocular pressure (IOP). The increase in IOP is believed to be caused by an increase in the deposition of extracellular matrix proteins, in particular fibronectin, in a region of the eye known as the trabecular meshwork (TM). How fibronectin contributes to the increase in IOP is not well understood. The increased density of fibronectin fibrils is thought to increase IOP by altering the compliance of the trabecular meshwork. Recent studies, however, also suggest that the composition and organization of fibronectin fibrils would affect IOP by changing the cell-matrix signaling events that control the functional properties of the cells in the trabecular meshwork. In this article, we will discuss how changes in the properties of fibronectin and fibronectin fibrils could contribute to the regulation of IOP.

Первичная открытоугольная глаукома (ПОУГ) - это хроническое заболевание глаз, сопровождающееся повышением внутриглазного давления и характерными изменениями поля зрения. Мужской пол является фактором риска развития глаукомы. Целью исследования явилось изучение роли трехлокусных моделей с участием 8 полиморфных локусов генов матриксных металлопротеиназ (rs679620 ММР3, rs1799750 ММР1, rs2250889, rs3918249, rs17576, rs3918249, rs3787268 и rs17577 ММР9) в формировании ПОУГ у мужчин. Нами выявлено 7 трехлокусных моделей SNP×SNP взаимодействий, определяющих подверженность к развитию ПОУГ у мужчин. Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a chronic eye disease accompanied by an increase in intraocular pressure and specific changes in the visual field. Male gender is a risk factor for glaucoma. The aim of the study is research the role of three-locus models with the participation of 8 polymorphic loci of the matrix metalloproteinases genes (rs679620 MMP3, rs1799750 MMP1, rs2250889, rs3918249, rs17576, rs3918889 and rs17577 MMP9) in the POAG formation among men. We have identified 7 three-locus models of SNP × SNP interactions that determine susceptibility to the development of POAG in men.
