چکیده
BACKGROUND Previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in Han Chinese population has found that SNPs in LPP gene were nominally significant in PCOS patients (P around 10E-05). Replication of the GWAS was applied to further confirm the relationship between LPP gene and PCOS. METHODS Three polymorphisms of LPP gene (rs715790, rs4449306, rs6782041) were selected and replicated in additional 1132 PCOS cases and 1142 controls. Genotyping of LPP gene was carried out by Taqman-MGB method. RESULTS In rs715790, the allele frequency is significantly different between the PCOS group and the control group. Meta-analysis showed that the allele frequencies of the three SNPs rs715790 (P(meta) =1.89E-05, OR=1.23), rs4449306 (P(meta) =3.0E-04, OR=1.10), rs6782041 (P(meta) = 2.0E-04, OR=1.09), were significantly different between PCOS cases and controls. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that LPP gene might be a novel candidate for PCOS.

P-192: Association of Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) Gene Polymorphism with Clomiphene Citrate Treatment in Iranian Infertile Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Background: Clomiphene Citrate (CC) is the most frequently administered drug for the treatment of female infertility [e.g. polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)]; which aims at restoring ovulation. Clomiphene is metabolized by CYP2D6, an important enzyme responsible for the metabolism of approximately 25% of clinically used drugs. CYP2D6 is very polymorphic and thought to result in inter- individual...

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders, affecting 5-10% of reproductive aged women. High levels of androgen hormone can be accounted as the most important symptoms in PCOS. Androgen is the precursor of steroid biosynthesis in ovary. The transport of cholesterol to the inner mitochondrial membrane through StAR protein is also necessary for andr...

Background: Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α) gene, as an inflammatory factor, plays an important role in reproductive physiology, especially in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Objective: This study aims to investigate the relationship between the -1031 T/C polymorphism of TNF-α gene and biochemical factors in women with PCOS. Methods: In this case-control study, participants w...
متن کاملInvestigation of adrenoceptor genes (β2 & β3) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Background: Genetic polymorphism is responsible for variations and individual differences. Polymorphism is a major factor of complex diseases with unknown etiology and cancer. Inconsistency in the symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome (monthly disorder, hirsutism, obesity, diabetes, infertility) is one of the major pathological complications of this syndrome. The present study was conducted to ...

Introduction: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is known as a metabolic, reproductive and ovarian degeneration disorder. Pro12 Ala mutation in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) gene as a transcription factor is linked to disorder of glucose and infertility. In the patients with type 2 diabetes and polycystic ovary syndrome, metformin is the recommended first-line treatme...
