C57BL/6J; BMP; bone morphogenetic protein; ASD, anterior segment dysgenesis; ERG, electroretinography.
In humans with ASD, the phenotype is variable even between patients with mutations in the same gene, and the severity of clinically observable dysgenesis does not correlate with IOP.
The abnormalities affect a variety of anterior segment tissues including the drainage structures of the iridocorneal angle and are similar to those reported in human patients with ASD and glaucoma [ 36 37 38 ] . The absence of detectable Bmp4 expression in the drainage structures suggests that BMP4 produced by the ciliary body and/or iris may act as a growth and differentiation factor during angle development.
This work functionally demonstrates that BMP4 is a good candidate to cause human ASD and developmental glaucoma.
Heterozygous Bmp4 mutant mice have a variety of ocular abnormalities including ASD, buphthalmia (enlarged eyes), and elevated IOP.
