Özet

Purpose: The aim of the study reported in this article was to determine the presence and quantitative differences of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), its tissue inhibitor (TIMP-2) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) in the aqueous humor and serum samples of patients with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome.
