Genetic insights into the biological mechanisms governing human ovarian ageing
2021-01-15
Abstract excerpt
Reproductive longevity is critical for fertility and impacts healthy ageing in women, yet insights into the underlying biological mechanisms and treatments to preserve it are limited. Here, we identify 290 genetic determinants of ovarian ageing, assessed using normal variation in age at natural menopause (ANM) in ∼200,000 women of European ancestry. These common alleles influence clinical extremes of ANM; women in...
