A de novo Reciprocal X; 9 Translocation in A Patient with Premature Ovarian Failure

چکیده
Premature ovarian failure (POF) causes hypergonadotrophic amenorrhea in 1-3% of females, occurring before the age of 40 among women with chromosomal rearrangements in the long arm of the X chromosome 'critical region'. In this article, we report a case of POF and primary amenorrheain a girl with a de novo reciprocal translocation between chromosomes X and 9. The proband was a 17 years old girl with a history of irregular menstruation and high level of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) (151 mlU/mL) and luteinizing hormone (LH) (56 mlU/mL). In ultrasound examination, left ovarian gonad was atrophic without any follicles. Right ovarian gonad was not seen. Cytogenetical analysis was performed on the patient and her parents. Her karyotype results was 46, X, rcp (X; 9) (q24; q13) dn. Her parents had normal karyotype. This reciprocal translocation between chromosome X and 9 and observed POF in the patient suggest either the disruption of a critical gene expression due to 'position effect' or deletion of one or more POF-related genes in the disrupted long arm of the affected X chromosome.

We report on an adolescent girl with premature ovarian failure (POF), de novo unbalanced translocation X;15(q24;q26.3) with partial Xq24 duplication, and absence of pubic and axillary hair. Endocrine assessment showed normal adrenal and ovarian function. Chromosomal abnormality was identified by standard cytogenetic methods, array-CGH, and FISH analysis. Mutation analysis showed normal androgen...

Background: Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a feasible method to preserve female reproductive potential, especially in young patients with cancer or in women at risk of premature ovarian failure. Vitrification has recently emerged as a new trend for biological specimen preservation. On the other hand, gene expression that changes during vitrification can influence oocyte maturation and need ...

Variability in the subfertile patient population excludes the possibility of a single approach to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) covering all the requirements of a patient. Modern medical science has made great advances in the understanding and the development of new drugs, treatment options and quantitative methods that can identify single patient characteristics. Factors that reduce fol...

Background: Constitutional chromosome abnormalities are among the major contributors to the genetic causes of reproductive disorders. Despite all of worldwide efforts have been made so far, the prognosis for mosaic X chromosome aberration below 30% of unemployed has yet to be established. The purpose of this study was to assess the quantity and quiddity of chromosomal aberrations that may negat...
