Role of ESR1 PvuII T/C variant in female reproductive process: A review
Journal Title: Central Asian Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Innovation - Year 2021, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Estrogen hormone is involved in the process of reproduction by banding to estrogen receptors (ERs). The findings of previous studies showed the association of a common variant, PvuII T/C (rs 2234693), in ESR1 gene with different aspects of reproductive process in women. Thus, the present review focused on effect of this genetic variant on reproductive process in females. The results demonstrated that the variant of ESR1 PvuII T/C (rs 2234693) could be associated with numbers of collected oocyte, maturation and embryo quality, spontaneous abortions, pregnancy rate following in vitro manipulations, preeclampsia, predisposition to endometriosis and infertility. In conclusion, the present study suggested that ESR1 PvuII T/C (rs 2234693) variant might play an important role in potential of females fertility given to the various ethnic backgrounds. Nonetheless, further studies are required in order to determine the more exact role of this variant in the infertility of women.
