Is MUC1 polymorphism associated with female infertility?

Reproductive biomedicine online - 1 Apr 2004

Abstract excerpt

The transmembrane mucin glycoprotein (MUC1) has an anti-adhesive role, and functions to maintain a non-receptive uterine state. A polymorphic variation of the MUC1 gene has been associated with female infertility due to suspected failure of embryo implantation, based on the significant greater size of the lower allele observed in infertile women. The aim of this study was to confirm this preliminary observation...
