This study investigates the genetic basis of endometriosis by analyzing rare copy number variants within a specific population. The authors identified three significant deletion regions associated with the condition, located at SGCZ on chromosome 8p22, MALRD1 on 10p12.31, and a region on 11q14.1. Statistical analysis revealed strong odds ratios for these deletions in cases compared to controls, with visual inspection of LRR and BAF plots confirming the accuracy of the calls. Haplotypes were further compared to assess whether these variants shared a common ancestral origin across the study group. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically identifying rare genomic deletions that are strongly associated with the disease pathology.

Abstract

The deletion at SGCZ on 8p22 (P = 7.3×10−4, OR = 8.5, Cl = 2.3–31.7) is shown in panel A, a deletion in MALRD1 on 10p12.31 (P = 5.6×10−4, OR = 14.1, Cl = 2.7–90.9) is shown in panel B, and a deletion at 11q14.1 (P = 5.7×10−4, OR = 33.8, Cl = 3.3–1651) is shown in panel C. The genomic coverage of CNVs observed in endometriosis cases are represented in red bars and the population controls in brown bars, with genes represented in blue. The red box on each ideogram shows the chromosomal location of the CNVs. To ensure correct CNV-calls in the three regions we performed a visual inspection of the LRR and BAF plots for all samples in the study population. LRR and BAF plots for each of the individuals represented above are shown in Figure S1 in File S2. CNVs with apparently identical boundaries were grouped as indicated by the number in parenthesis. Haplotypes in each group were compared to determine if the CNVs in each group have shared ancestral origin.
