Susceptibility
  • to the development of glaucoma (GLC1N), primary open angle glaucoma (PCG)
  • to endometrial cancer
  • to neonatal-onset (NO) primary congenital glaucoma
  • Variant & Polymorphism SNP , other
  • combination of R368H and Myoc mutation correlates with earlier manifestation of GLC1A
  • polymorphisms on exons 2 and 3 increasing the risk of endometrial cancer
  • rs2567206 (T2805C) significantly associated with PCG (
  • heterozygous missens mutations with absent or reduced relative enzymatic activity could be a risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma
  • patients with CYP1B1 pathogenic variants had a poorer outcome in primary congenital glaucoma
  • Candidate gene for Peters anomaly

    CYP1B1 inhibitors in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs may provide a novel targeted and effective approach to adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy against certain forms of highly metastatic breast cancer
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Cyp1b1-/- mice have ocular drainage structure abnormalities resembling those reported in human PCG patients. In Cyp1b1-/- mice tyrosinase gene (Tyr) acts as a modifier of the drainage structure phenotype
