Dysfunction of the stress-responsive FOXC1 transcription factor contributes to the earlier-onset glaucoma observed in Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome patients

Mutations in the Forkhead Box C1 (FOXC1) transcription factor gene are associated with Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS), a developmental disorder affecting structures in the anterior segment of the eye.
