“…Some of them have identified specific SNPs located in genes involved in the PVR pathways, which may be involved in the disease pathogenesis and represent potential predictive factors for PVR development [ 9 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 ]. Some genetic association studies performed in the last two decades have also highlighted the potential of various gene polymorphisms of inflammatory mediators and growth factors as new biomarkers in PVR pathogenesis as well as a potential tool in its diagnosis and treatment [ 9 , 29 , 30 , 32 , 36 , 37 ].…”
