  12. A concise description of the scientific research:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The project is carried out within the NCN OPUS 16 grant, project leader is Prof. Marzena Gaj\u0119cka<\/a><\/p>\n

    Project title: \u201e<\/strong> Multi-level molecular assessment based on laser microdissection of corneas to reveal biomarkers and therapeutic targets of keratoconus\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Keratoconus (KTCN) is a disorder of the eye causing a change in the shape of the cornea from spherical to conical, and the formation of a pathological “cone”. KTCN etiology is multifaceted, environmental and genetic factors are involved. The causes of the disease and the chain of events \/ subsequent pathological changes taking place in its course are still unclear. The human cornea, despite its small size, consists of several layers. In the scope of the development of new laboratory techniques, it is necessary to examine these layers separately. The aim of this project is to create a keratoconus and non-keratoconus cornea molecular atlas cornea, to identify genes involved in the pathological process of KTCN cone formation and disease development. DNA and RNA from keratoconus and non-keratoconus corneas will be analyzed, with use a laser microdissection, RNA sequencing and whole exome sequencing. The obtained data will answer the questions whether and how the DNA and RNA\u2019s profiles differ between healthy individuals and KCTN patients.<\/p>\n
