[ 1 ] - P-200: Frequency of Heterochromatin Polymorphisms in Couples with Recurrent Abortions in Patients Refer to IVF Clinic of Yazd

Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a multifactorial problem associated with genetic abnormalities reflected by inherited disorders. The aim of the present study was to investigate the contribution of heterochromatin polymorphism in couples with recurrent miscarriages compared with couples without miscarriages. Materials and Methods: Over a 3 year period, we made a study of the diagno...

[ 2 ] - P-201: Prevalence of 4977bp Deletion in Mitochondrial DNA in IVF Failure Women

Background: Successful IVF process is limited by factors such as oocyte quality. Oocyte quality can be defined as its abilities to be fertilized, mature and give rise to normal offspring and it is dependent on nuclear maturation and cytoplasm maturation. Damage to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been described in oocytes in IVF failure women that decrease cytoplasmic quality because Mitochondria ...

[ 3 ] - P-202: StuI Polymorphism on the Androgen Receptor Gene in Women with Endometriosis

Background: Androgens have an anti-proliferative effect on endometrial cells. Human androgen receptor (AR) gene contains two polymorphic short tandem repeats of GGC and CAG, and a single-nucleotide polymorphism on exon 1 that is recognized by the restriction enzyme, StuI. Prior studies have shown that the lengths of the CAG and GGC repeats are inversely and linearly related to AR activity and a...
