Profiles of microRNA in aqueous humor of normal tension glaucoma patients using RNA sequencing

Abstract We aimed to identify and compare microRNAs (miRNAs) from individual aqueous humor samples between normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patients and normal controls. Aqueous humor (80 to 120 µl) was collected before cataract surgery. Six stable NTG patients and seven age-matched controls were inclu...
