入选标准

  • The source population is the population of the participants of the Eye Tissue
  • Bank Maastricht (ETBM). The ETBM is open for all glaucoma and cataract patients
  • of the University Eye Clinic Maastricht to participate. In general, this is an
  • elderly (glaucoma and cataract), Caucasian population inhabiting the south of
  • From the population of the ETBM, we previously selected the 175 participants of
  • the blood biomarker study: POAG patients and controls.
  • From these 175 participants of the blood biomarker study, we now select 3 study
  • groups for the current study.
  • 4.2 Inclusion criteria
  • The blood biomarker study included 175 participants, POAG and Control from the
  • ETBM with the following criteria:
  • Inclusion criteria of the biomarker study:
  • - POAG group: Well-documented diagnosis of POAG.
  • - Control group: Well-documented ophthalmic history without glaucoma.
  • - Over 18 years old
  • Additional inclusion criteria of the current METC research proposal:
  • - Group 1: POAG patients with lowest values of mtDNA copy number in blood cell
  • - Group 2: POAG patients, randomly selected
  • - Group 3: Control patients, randomly selected; without glaucoma.
  • We aim to collect fibroblast cell lines from 15 individuals per group. We
  • expect to need skin biopsies from 15 to max 18 persons per group to achieve
  • this. We will try to select these from the participants of the previous blood
  • biomarker study. However, it will not be possible to include sufficient
  • participants (15 to max 18) from the control group of the blood biomarker study
  • to reach the required number of 15 individual fibroblast cell lines for the
  • control group of the current study. To complete the required number for this
  • group we will include additional control participants who we select directly
  • (and randomly) from the source population (Eye Tissue Bank Maastricht),
  • applying all appropriate inclusion and exclusion criteria of this control group
  • and applying the age range which is present in the other (POAG) study groups of
  • the current study.

排除标准

  • Exclusion criteria of the blood biomarker study:
  • - Systemic diseases in which mitochondria may be involved.
  • - Use of drugs that affect mitochondrial function.
  • Additional exclusion criteria of the current METC research proposal:
  • - No informed consent
  • - Use of oral anti-coagulants
  • - Significant concurrent disease e.g., cancer, diabetes, neurological disorders
  • (except for glaucomatous disorders), heart-related disorders, blood/platelet
  • disorders or other diseases affecting the liver, kidney (except kidney stones)
  • or the lungs (except bronchitis).
  • - inherited metabolic disorder will be used as exclusion criterium for group 1
  • and 3, and as variable for group 2
  • - Other concurrent eye diseases e.g., uveitis, age-related macular degeneration
  • or diabetic retinopathy.
  • - Ongoing participation in other clinical trials that contain an intervention.
  • - Any other factor that in the opinion of the investigator excludes the patient
  • from the study.
