pp.61-66
본 연구에서는 조기 난소 부전증 환자를 대상으로 난포 자극 호르몬 수용체 유전자의 돌연변이와 발현 양상을 분석하였다. 돌연변이 분석을 위해 환자의 말초혈액에서 genomic DNA를 분리하고 nucleotide 566을 포함하고 있는 exon 7에 특이적인 primer쌍을 이용하여 중합효소 연쇄 반응을 시행하였다. 전기 영동으로 반응산물을 확인한 다음, 돌연변이 여부를 조사하기 위하여 제한효소 절단분석 (Restriction Fragment Length
This study was investigated to analyze the inactivating point mutation and expression level of follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH) receptor mRNA. In first experiment, we analyzed the point mutation. Peripheral blood was collected from each patient. To screen individuals for the C566T mutation, PCR was performed for exon 7 of the FSH receptor gene in 10 patients. No inactivating point mutation of FSH receptor gene was identified in women with premature ovarian failure. To analyze the expression level of FSH receptor, mRNA expressions were examined by RT-PCR method using specific primers for the FSH receptor. The amount of FSH receptor mRNA expressed in POF patients was lower than that in the control group. But it was not significantly different. These finding suggests that lower expression of FSH receptor in premature ovarian failure patients might be the cause of the low response to the gonadotropin during the hyperstimulation in IVF-ET cycles.
