Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common complex genetic endocrinopathy. It has high heritability, and twin studies indicate that it is a complex polygenic disorder. Searching for major genes of PCOS is crucial to clarify its molecular pathogenesis. A previous genome-wide association study in Chinese women with PCOS identified a region on chromosome 2p16.3 that encodes the follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) genes as a reproducible PCOS susceptibility locus. In the present study, we performed a replication analysis of the association between two common variants of the FSHR gene and PCOS in Northern Chinese Han women. RESULTS:We recruited 384 unrelated PCOS patients and 768 healthy individuals from the Shaanxi province in the northern part of China. Two polymorphisms (Ala307Thr and Ser680Asn) of the FSHR gene and the clinical characteristics of the study subjects were analyzed in the case-control sample. The frequency of FSHR Ala307Thr and Ser680Asn variants along with the haplotype was not significantly different between the PCOS patients and the controls; however, the Ser680 variants may be associated with high levels of FSH and low E2 levels. CONCLUSION:The variant of Ser680 was not associated with PCOS but it may be related to high FSH levels. The present study suggests that the two variants of the FSHR gene are not a causative factor of PCOS in Northern Chinese Han women.
