Article Synopsis
- This study investigated the connection between the GJD2 gene and myopia using a form-deprivation myopia (FDM) model in guinea pigs, building on previous genome-wide association studies.
- The researchers found that after 3 weeks, the FDM group developed significant myopia, with a -6.75 D shift, while control guinea pigs showed minimal changes.
- Additionally, GJD2 mRNA expression decreased by 31.58% and Cx36 protein levels decreased by 37.72% in the FDM group compared to controls, indicating a potential link between these changes and the development of myopia.
