The purpose of this study is to identify and visualize the spatial distribution of proteins present in amyloid corneal deposits of TGFBI-CD patients using Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MSI) and compare it with healthy control cornea.
The purpose of this study was to report on two novel missense mutations of the cornea-specific TGFBI gene in one single patient and in two generations of a family diagnosed with unique corneal dystrophy (CD) phenotypes.
