Mutation screening and isoform prevalence of the follicle stimulating hormone receptor gene in women with premature ovarian failure, resistant ovary syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether mutations in the FSH receptor gene are associated with premature ovarian failure (POF) or resistant ovary syndrome (ROS) in women in the UK. To determine whether an allelic variant of the FSH receptor gene affects fertility parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). DESIGN: A mutation screen using DNA from women with POF and ROS. Restriction digest of amplified DNA...
