Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) may help inform the etiology of infertility. Here, we perform GWAS meta-analyses across seven cohorts in up to 42,629 cases and 740,619 controls and identify 25 genetic risk loci for male and female i…

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) may help inform treatments for infertility, whose causes remain unknown in many cases. Here we present GWAS meta-analyses across six cohorts for male and female infertility in up to 41,200 cases and 6…

Endometriosis is a common condition associated with debilitating pelvic pain and infertility. A genome-wide association study meta-analysis, including 60,674 cases and 701,926 controls of European and East Asian descent, identified 42 genom…

BACKGROUND: Obesity is observationally associated with altered risk of many female reproductive conditions. These include polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis, infertility, and pregnancy-related disorde…

Introduction: High prevalence of gynecological conditions in women of Middle Eastern origin is reported, likely due to regional risk factors and mediators. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to investigate the prev…

Genome-wide association studies in the fields of reproductive medicine and endocrinology are yielding robust genetic variants associated with disease. Integrated genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenomic molecular profiling studies are common…

Differentially methylated regions between women with endometriosis and healthy women. The methylation data of all patients was compared to controls. Menstrual cycle day has not been taken into account. (XLSX 15 kb)

Differentially methylated regions between different menstrual cycle phases. The methylation data of each menstrual cycle phase was compared to other phases. (XLSX 2676 kb)

Functional annotation clustering of hypo- and hypermethylated genes in endometrial tissue using g:profiler bioinformatics tool. The complete lists of DMRs between different menstrual cycle phases was used to create the lists of Gene Ontolog…

Pathway analysis of hypo- and hypermethylated genes in endometrial tissue using g:profiler bioinformatics tool. The complete lists of DMRs between different menstrual cycle phases was used to create the list of Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes a…

Menstrual cycle phase specific genes. The list of late-secretory and menstrual phase specific hyper- and hypomethylated genes. (XLSX 28 kb)

PCR primers used in the methylation validation analysis. PCR primers for the bisulfite-treated DNA were designed using MethPrimer[42]. (XLSX 9 kb)

Background: Alterations in endometrial DNA methylation profile have been proposed as one potential mechanism initiating the development of endometriosis. However, the normal endometrial methylome is influenced by the cyclic hormonal changes…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition in women that results in pelvic pain and subfertility, and has been associated with decreased body mass index (BMI). Genetic variants contributing to the heritable component have started to …
