Aim: To explore the correlation between Fat mass and objectivity associated gene (FTO) rs9939609 polymorphism and susceptibility to polycystic ovary syndrome.
Methods: Case-control studies on the relationship between FTO rs9939609 A/T polymorphism and PCOS were searched in PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. STATA 12.0 software was conducted for Meta-analysis.
Results: Nine case-control studies were included, including 1410 cases in PCOS group and 1223 cases in healthy control group. The results of meta-analysis showed that FTO rs9939609 gene polymorphism was associated with PCOS susceptibility, and the risk of developing PCOS was 1.19 times higher for T alleles carriers than for A alleles carriers, and some similar associations were observed in Asian populations.
Conclusions: In summary, FTO rs9939609 gene polymorphism is significantly associated with PCOS susceptibility, especially in Asian populations.

The interactions of spontaneous abortion, dietary intake of selenium, and fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) genotype: a case-control study in Iran.
Front Nutr

Cancer Research Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Background: Spontaneous abortion (SA) is reported to be associated with Fat Mass And Obesity-Associated FTO genotype and dietary intake of selenium. This research assessed the potential interactions between the risk of SA, dietary selenium intake, and the FTO rs9939609 polymorphism.
Methods: This case-control study encompassed 192 women who experienced SA and 347 control participants.
Interactions of spontaneous abortion with gene and dietary carotenoids; a case-control study.

Article Synopsis
- Spontaneous abortion (SA) is a common complication in pregnancy influenced by genetic factors and maternal nutrition.
- A study analyzed 192 women with a history of SA versus 347 healthy women, examining the impact of dietary carotenoids and specific gene polymorphisms on the occurrence of SA.
- The findings revealed that higher intake of β-cryptoxanthin might protect against SA only in women with the TT genotype of the related gene, while no significant links were found for other carotenoids.
Body mass as a result of psychological, lifestyle and genetic determinants. A pilot study involving overweight/obese and normal weight women in their early adulthood.

Aim: The causes of obesity and overweight are complex and depend on mutually interrelated groups of lifestyle, psychological and genetic factors. Among 46 identified point mutations known within FTO gene, mutation SNP rs9939609 has the strongest effect on an increase in body weight. Therefore, the study aimed to assess psychological, lifestyle and genetic factors (expressed by the frequency of the FTO SNP rs-9939609 gene variant) and their association with body weight in young adult women.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between genetic polymorphisms (HHEX, IGF2BP2, and FTO) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk in a Chinese population, finding inconsistent results compared to other studies.
- A total of 1,002 participants (500 GDM patients and 502 controls) were genotyped, with various statistical methods employed to assess genotype and allele variations related to GDM risk.
- Significant associations were found, especially in individuals aged 30 and older, with specific genetic models indicating increased risks for developing GDM and higher blood glucose levels in certain genotypes.
Genetic insights into endurance athlete status: A meta-analysis of gene polymorphisms.
J Biol Methods
September 2024
Institute of Health Sciences, Ordu University, Ordu, Turkey.
Article Synopsis
- This meta-analysis examined the relationship between specific gene polymorphisms and endurance athlete performance, focusing on five genes believed to influence physical performance and related biological processes.
- A total of 20 relevant studies published from 2009 to 2023 were analyzed after screening 329 articles for eligibility based on specific criteria.
- Findings revealed no significant differences in allele and genotype frequencies between endurance athletes and control groups for most genes, but the results for the gene rs12594956 were noted as distinct.
