The investigation of the genetic basis of refractive error and myopia entered a new stage with the introduction of genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Multiple GWAS on many ethnic groups have been published over the years, providing new insight into the genetic architecture and pathophysiology of refractive error. This is a review of the GWAS published to date, the main lessons learned, and future possible directions of genetic studies of myopia and refractive error.
随着全基因组关联研究(GWAS)的引入,对屈光不正和近视遗传基础的研究进入了一个新阶段。多年来,多个种族群体的多项 GWAS 研究已经发表,为屈光不正的遗传结构和病理生理学提供了新的见解。这是对迄今为止发表的 GWAS 的综述,主要的经验教训以及近视和屈光不正遗传研究的未来可能方向。
