Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs13405728 (in gene LHCGR), rs13429458 (in gene THADA) and rs2479106 (in gene DENND1A) in women with endometrial carcinoma.
Methods: We conducted a case-control study comprising 96 Han Chinese women with endometrial carcinoma, and 192 healthy controls. SNPs rs13405728, rs13429458 and rs2479106 were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct sequencing. The effects of body mass index (BMI) and age were evaluated using an unconditional logistic regression model adjusted for potential confounders.
Results: The allele frequencies of SNPs rs2479106 and rs13405728 were significantly different (P<0.05) between endometrial carcinoma group and control group, and the difference was especially significant in the subgroup of endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Genotyping analysis showed that allele G in rs2479106 and allele A in rs13405728 could confer risk to endometrioid adenocarcinoma.
Conclusions: Our results suggest that SNPs rs2479106 in gene DENND1A and rs13405728 in gene LHCGR are associated with endometrioid adenocarcinoma.

Pilot study on evaluation and determination of the prevalence of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) associated gene markers in the South Indian population.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is typically characterized by a spectrum of manifestations that include menstrual irregularities, anovulation, cysts, hyperandrogenic features like hirsutism, acne, alopecia, and various metabolic complications. The pathology of PCOS is complex and several mechanisms have been potentially involved in the genetic abnormalities/dysfunctions. Hence, the present study aims to examine the prevalence and association of polymorphisms in candidate genes (thyroid adenoma-associated gene [THADA], luteinizing hormone and human chorionic gonadotropin receptor [LHCGR], DENN domain containing 1A [DENND1A], follicle-stimulating hormone receptor [FSHR], Connexin37 [CX37], angiotensin-converting enzyme [ACE], insulin receptor [INSR] and calpain 10 [CAPN10]) in PCOS patients of the South Indian regional population.

Article Synopsis
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex disorder affected by both genetic and environmental factors, and previous studies on its genetic risk factors have produced inconsistent results, indicating a need for more research.
- This study involved genotyping several gene variants in 400 women with PCOS and 480 healthy women, finding specific variants significantly associated with PCOS risk in the Chinese population.
- The findings suggest that certain genetic variants may be important risk factors for PCOS in Asian populations, but further research with larger and more diverse sample sizes is necessary to confirm these associations.
Pooled genetic analysis identifies variants that confer enhanced susceptibility to PCOS in Indian ethnicity.

Background: PCOS is a common endocrine disorder that is characterized by hyperandrogenism and chronic anovulation and is the leading cause of female infertility. It is a heterogeneous disorder with the involvement of multiple gene and environmental interactions. This study identified variants that are known to confer susceptibility identified by Genome wide association studies (GWAS) in other ethnicities and replicated the same in individuals with PCOS of Indian ethnicity.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common female endocrine disorder that has a detriment impact on female health. Herein, the study used a case-control analysis to sought to explore the association of rs13405728, rs12478601, and rs2479106 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) efficacy in treating PCOS. A total of 163 PCOS patients (52 cycles) were selected as the PCOS group and 171 patients with tubal factor infertility without PCOS (68 cycles) were selected as the control group.
