ObjectiveSingle nucleotide variants have been implicated in the response to fertility treatment and a pharmacogenomic approach may help to customize therapy based on patient genome. We aimed to evaluate the effect, individual and combined, …
Background Single nucleotide variants (SNVs) FSHB :c.-211G>T, FSHR :c.919G>A, and FSHR :c.2039G>A were reported to be associated with the variability in FSH and LH levels, and in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes. In this study, w…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, associated with chronic and inflammatory reaction. Symptoms range from dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, unexplained inferti…
The STAT4 gene is vital to signaling pathways in the immune response. Immunological alterations are involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, and STAT4 polymorphisms may be linked to disease development. This study's aim is to evaluate…
BackgroundImportant candidate genes involved in the ovarian response to exogenous FSH are the estrogen receptor genes (ESRs), since the effects of estrogens on follicle growth, maturation and oocyte release. It is known that some markers of…
IntroductionAn aberrant immunologic mechanism has been suggested to be involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) plays a key role in the immune and inflammatory response and modulates cell proliferation, apopt…
