摘 要:Background: To study the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and the associated gene regulation in the pathogenesis of glucocorticoid- induced glaucoma (GIG) in Chinese ***: The trabecular cells of normal individuals and patients with GIG were cultured in vitro. By using polymerase chain reaction (PCR),gene fragments on GR DNA binding sites of trabecular cells were amplified. The product was detected by gel ***: The trabecular cells were cultured successfully in normal individuals and patients with GIG in vitro. A single PCR product was obtained in both two groups with the same size of 545 base ***: There is not any difference in gene on the GR DNA binding sites between normal individuals and patients with GIG. The results suggest the difference in mRNA or other functional genes. Eye Science 1999 ; 15 ; 46 - 50.
