(OGG1), X-ray repair cross-complementing-1 (XRCC1), and AP endonuclease-1 (APE1) …

Purpose Age related cataract is the leading cause of blindness in the world today. The
association between DNA damage to the lens epithelium and the development of lens …

Purpose: A meta-analysis of available studies was used to test the association between two
DNA repair genes and age-related cataract. Materials and Methods: A systematic search of …

Background DNA repair gene (XPD and XRCC1) polymorphisms have been considered as
risk factors for the development of age-related cataract (ARC). To confirm the association …

The association between oxidative or ultraviolet (UV) light induced DNA damage in the lens
epithelium and the development of lens opacities, and the existence of DNA repair in lens …

Purpose: Epidemiological evidence suggests that ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and oxidative
stress play an important role in age-related cataract pathogenesis. UV irradiation and …

Purpose.: Oxidative stress seems to be an important factor in the development of age-related
macular degeneration (AMD). The role of DNA repair mechanisms has also received …

Purpose Oxidative DNA damage has been shown to have some role in the development of
primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). In this study, we aimed to determine the frequency of …

Purpose.: Age-related cataract (ARC) is one of the most common causes of severe visual
impairment among the elderly worldwide with four subtypes, such as cortical, nuclear …

Purpose To investigate the association between the 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1)
