Abstract:The aim of the study was to better understand the interplay between genetic factors and the aging process in the human retina through mapping complement factor H (CFH) and related proteins. Two human eyes, from 92-and 64-year-old donors, were genotyped for the expression of CFH-related 1 (CFHR1) and CFH-related 3 (CFHR3) genes. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was extracted and analyzed for concentration and purity with a spectrophotometer, at 260 nm. The results showed a DNA concentration of 469.17 ng/μL in the ag… Show more
