bmp15 and gdf9 gene mutations in premature ovarian failure

چکیده

background: premature ovarian failure (pof) is an ovarian defect characterized by the premature depletion of ovarian follicles before the age of 40, representing one major cause of female infertility. mutations in bone morphogenetic protein 15 (bmp15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (gdf9) have been shown to be associated with pof. methods: genomic dna was isolated from 52 idiopathic premature ovarian failure patients and 100 normal control individuals. exons of bmp15 and gdf9 gene were amplified using pcr method and subjected to directed sequencing. variants were identified by comparing the sequences obtained with normal sequences from ncbi database. results: four bmp15 gene variants were identified in 6 patients in heterozygous condition. out of these 4 variants, 3 variants namely, c.165a>t (p.glu55asp), c.538 g>t (p.aln180 ser) and c. 510_512 delt were novel variants. in silico analysis using sift, provean and polyphen 2 score predicted the non-deleterious effect of c.165a>t and c.538 g>t variant. 788instct variant was identified in 3 patients. no variant was identified in gdf9 gene in any patients and controls. conclusion: although the variant has been identified in bmp15 gene but it may not be associated with the premature ovarian failure.

BMP15 and GDF9 Gene Mutations in Premature Ovarian Failure

BACKGROUND Premature ovarian failure (POF) is an ovarian defect characterized by the premature depletion of ovarian follicles before the age of 40, representing one major cause of female infertility. Mutations in bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) have been shown to be associated with POF. METHODS Genomic DNA was isolated from 52 idiopathic premat...

Mutations and sequence variants in GDF9 and BMP15 in patients with premature ovarian failure.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Mutations in bone morphogenic protein 15 (BMP15) and growth/differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) lead to altered fertility in animal models. In the human, a heterozygous point mutation of BMP15 has been associated with premature ovarian failure (POF). SUBJECT AND METHODS We have directly sequenced both genes in a cohort of 203 POF patients presenting with primary or second...

Premature ovarian failure and FMR1 gene mutations: an update.

Screening for fragile X premutations is recommended for the routine work-up for any woman presenting with premature ovarian failure (POF). The reason for this is that women with POF have an approximate 5% chance of conceiving and this possibility may be increased further in the FRAXA premutation subgroup. Women need to be informed if they are at risk of having a child with fragile X syndrome. I...

P-125: Identification of Novel Missense Mutations of The TGFBR3 Gene in Chinese Women with Premature Ovarian Failure

Background The aim of this study was to assess the ssociation between human transforming growth factor b receptor,type III (TGFBR3) and idiopathic premature ovarian failure (POF) in a Chinese population. MaterialsAndMethods A total of 112 Chinese women with idiopathic POF and 110 normal controls were examined. DNA samples prepared from blood leukocytes were used as templates for polymerase-chai...

CSB-PGBD3 Mutations Cause Premature Ovarian Failure

Premature ovarian failure (POF) is a rare, heterogeneous disorder characterized by cessation of menstruation occurring before the age of 40 years. Genetic etiology is responsible for perhaps 25% of cases, but most cases are sporadic and unexplained. In this study, through whole exome sequencing in a non-consanguineous family having four affected members with POF and Sanger sequencing in 432 spo...

Signalling pathways mediating specific synergistic interactions between GDF9 and BMP15.

Growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) are two proteins selectively expressed in the oocyte which are essential for normal fertility. Both of these proteins are members of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily and as such are produced as pre-proproteins, existing after proteolytic processing as a complex of the respective pro and matur...
