Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a disease with multifactorial etiology characterized by irreversible loss of central visual acuity. The discovery of susceptive single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has progressed our understanding of AMD. Complement factor H (CFH) gene Y402H polymorphism and high-temperature requirement A-1 (HTRA1) LOC387715 gene A69S polymorphisms are the most important SNPs reported in the literature. Determination of genetic risk factors and genotype-phenotype relationship in AMD may result in rapid and cost-effective therapeutic applications for young and old population. In this study, we hypothesized a potential association between CFH gene Y402H and HTRA1 LOC387715 gene A69S polymorphism in Turkish AMD patients. In blood samples from a total of 252 individuals, 147 clinically diagnosed as AMD and the others control, polymorphic sites in CFH, Y402H (Tsp509I T/C), and HTRA1, LOC387715 A69S (FnuHI G/T), were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. There was significant difference between CFH genotypes in the AMD group, TT 21.8%, TC 48.3%, and CC 29.9%, and in the control subjects, TT 45% (p=0.003), TC 41% (p=0.0001), and CC 14% (p=0.0001). Further, the A69S polymorphism of LOC387715 was investigated and found to be significantly associated with AMD. LOC387715 genotypes in the AMD group were GG 30.6%, GT 38.1%, and TT 31.3% and in the control subjects were GG 59% (p=0.027), GT 39% (p=0.0001), and TT 2% (p=0.0001), respectively. We also found that Y402H C and A69S T allele were associated with AMD. This is the first study showing that Y402H and LOC387715 are associated with AMD in Turkish population.
