Abstract
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common and complex multisystemic genetic disease. Previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) of PCOS has found several potentially causative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in Han Chinese population. The goal of present investigation was to assess the potential association between rs1121980, rs1421085, rs1558902, rs8050136 SNPs and PCOS. In order to make a better elucidation of this disease, further investigations of association between SNPs susceptibility and PCOS become necessary. METHODS: In the present study, we enrolled 212 patients with PCOS and 198 control subjects. Four polymorphisms of FTO gene (rs1121980, rs1421085, rs1558902, rs8050136) were genotyped by Taqman-MGB method, and their relationship with PCOS was speculated. RESULTS: The allele frequency has no significant difference between the PCOS group and the controls. Genotype frequencies of the four SNPs in the additive, dominant and recessive models showed no significant difference between PCOS cases and controls. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate that FTO gene has little association in PCOS development.
