Endometriosis is associated with rare copy number variants.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Chettier Rakesh, Ward Kenneth, Albertsen Hans M

Abstract excerpt

Endometriosis is a complex gynecological condition that affects 6-10% of women in their reproductive years and is defined by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. Twin, family, and genome-wide association (GWA) studies have confirmed a genetic role, yet only a small part of the genetic risk can be explained by SNP variation. Copy number variants (CNVs) account for a greater portion of...
