J Glaucoma . 2001 Dec; 10(6):477-82. PMID: 11740218
Purpose: Mutations in the forkhead transcription factor gene (FOXC1) have been recently shown to cause some cases of juvenile glaucoma associated with a variety of anterior-segment anomalies. The purpose of...

Wang W, McNatt L, Shepard A, Jacobson N, Nishimura D, Stone E, et al.
Mol Vis . 2001 Apr; 7:89-94. PMID: 11320352
Purpose: To develop methods for obtaining high quality RNA from human donor eyes and to determine the expression profile of the congenital glaucoma gene FOXC1 in human ocular tissues. Methods:...

Nishimura D, Searby C, Carmi R, Elbedour K, Van Maldergem L, Fulton A, et al.
Hum Mol Genet . 2001 Apr; 10(8):865-74. PMID: 11285252
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive disorder with the primary clinical features of obesity, pigmented retinopathy, polydactyly, hypogenitalism, mental retardation and renal anomalies. Associated features of the...

Scheetz T, Raymond M, Nishimura D, McClain A, Roberts C, Birkett C, et al.
Genome Res . 2001 Mar; 11(3):497-502. PMID: 11230173
We have developed a high-density EST map of the rat, consisting of >11,000 ESTs. These ESTs were placed on a radiation hybrid framework map of genetic markers spanning all 20...

Nishimura D, Searby C, Alward W, Walton D, Craig J, Mackey D, et al.
Am J Hum Genet . 2001 Feb; 68(2):364-72. PMID: 11170889
Mutations in the forkhead transcription-factor gene (FOXC1), have been shown to cause defects of the anterior chamber of the eye that are associated with developmental forms of glaucoma. Discovery of...

Smith R, Zabaleta A, Kume T, Savinova O, Kidson S, Martin J, et al.
Hum Mol Genet . 2000 Apr; 9(7):1021-32. PMID: 10767326
Anterior segment developmental disorders, including Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly (ARA), variably associate with harmfully elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), which causes glaucoma. Clinically observed dysgenesis does not correlate with IOP, however, and the...

Kanis A, Al-Rajhi A, Taylor C, Mathers W, Folberg R, Nishimura D, et al.
Ophthalmic Genet . 2000 Jan; 20(4):243-9. PMID: 10617922
Congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy (CHED) is a disorder of the corneal endothelium and has been recognized to segregate in families with both autosomal dominant (AD) and autosomal recessive (AR) modes...

The transcription factor FKHL7 gene has recently been associated with the anterior segment dysgenesis disorder of the eye known as Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly (ARA). A growing body of evidence indicates that...

A number of different eye disorders with the presence of early-onset glaucoma as a component of the phenotype have been mapped to human chromosome 6p25. These disorders have been postulated...
