  • Title: Four polymorphisms of the CAPN 10 gene and their relationship to polycystic ovary syndrome susceptibility: a meta-analysis.
    Author: Huang M, Xiao J, Zhao X, Liu C, Chen Q.
    Journal: Clin Endocrinol (Oxf); 2012 Mar; 76(3):431-8. PubMed ID: 21906115.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE:   To investigate the association between CAPN 10 gene polymorphism and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) susceptibility. DESIGN: Meta-analysis of published case-control studies of four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CAPN 10 and PCOS susceptibility. PATIENTS:   Women with PCOS. MEASUREMENTS:   Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for heterozygous, homozygous, dominant model, recessive model and allele. RESULTS:   A total of 11 studies were involved in the meta-analysis. UCSNP-63 was significantly associated with PCOS, with homozygous carriers (TT vs CC: OR = 0·64; 95% CI: 0·45-0·90) and recessive model (TT vs CC and CT: OR = 0·64; 95% CI: 0·45-0·90) being protective factors. In addition, UCSNP-19 was significantly associated with PCOS, with recessive model (ins/ins vs del/del and del/ins: OR = 0·72, 95% CI: 0·59-0·88) and insert allele (ins vs del: OR = 0·85, 95% CI: 0·76-0·96) being protective factors, while heterozygous carriers (del/ins vs del/del: OR = 1·56, 95% CI: 1·24-1·94) and deletion allele (del vs ins: OR = 1·18, 95% CI: 1·04-1·32) being risk factors. However, no significant associations were found between UCSNP-44, -43 and PCOS. Moreover, the results of the Rotterdam criteria subgroup analysis were similar with that of overall analysis. CONCLUSIONS:   This is the first report on the association between CAPN 10 UCSNP-63 and PCOS in genotype, with homozygous carriers and recessive model being protective factors. Additionally, insert allele and recessive model of UCSNP-19 are protective factors, while deletion allele and heterozygous genotype are risk factors for PCOS development.
