Effects of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations on female fertility.
Women with BRCA1/2 mutations have a significantly higher lifetime risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer. We suggest that female mutation carriers may have improved fitness owing to enhanced fertility relative to non-carriers. Here we show that women who are carriers of BRCA1/2 mutations living in natural fertility conditions have excess fertility as well as excess post-reproductive mortal...
متن کاملUnravelling gene -‐ environment interaction and fertility
There has been a massive delay in the age at first birth across Europe since 1970, which is now between 28-29 years (Mills et al. 2011). A primary reason for fertility postponement is the clash between the optimal biological period for women to have children with obtaining a higher education and building a career (Rindfuss et al. 1996; Brewster & Rindfuss 2000; Mills et al. 2011). The ability t...
متن کاملImpact of oxidative stress on female fertility.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the role of oxidative stress in the context of female fertility. RECENT FINDINGS Oxidative stress is associated with decreased female fertility in animal and in-vitro models, but no studies to date have directly assessed the relationship in women. Exposures associated with oxidative stress and with evidence to influence the timing and maintenance of a viable pregna...
متن کاملImpact of Heat Stress on Female Fertility
The Nature of the Problem Heat stress has two major actions on physiology of the female that reduce the probability of a cow becoming pregnant. First, heat stress reduces ability to detect estrus. On one dairy in Florida, only about 18-24% of estruses in hot months were detected by herdsmen while 45-56% of estrus periods were detected in cool months (Thatcher and Collier, 1986). The reduction i...
متن کاملImpact of Oxidative Stress on Female Fertility
This study examined nutritional status and fecundity of women and was approved for patient enrollment by the ETSU Institutional Review Board (IRB). Once enrolled, participants filled out two food frequency questionnaires (FFQ, fruit/vegetable intake, fat intake), self-reported anthropometric data, and had one 5 mL vacutainer of whole blood (EDTA) collected for measures of oxidative stress (OS),...
