    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate clinical value of denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) used in detecting transforming growth factor beta receptor 3 (TGFBR-3) exons 11 and 12 polymorphism in women with idiopathic premature ovarian failure (POF). METHODS: From Feb. 2009 to Dec. 2011, 110 patients with idiopathic POF undergoing treatment at Shenzhen Maternal & Child Health Institute affiliated to Southern Medical University were enrolled as POF group in this study. In the mean time, 110 women under 40 years old with normal hormonal level and menstrual cycles as control group. The exons 11 and 12 of TGFBR-3 gene polymorphism were screened by using DHPLC, and results of DNA sequencing was as golden standard. Some related indexes were calculated, such as sensitivity, specificity, false negative value, false positive value, Youden index, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value. At the same time, 20% of the tested specimens were chosen randomly and detected by DHPLC again. The value of Kappa index were calculated by comparing the results between the first and second DHPLC analysis. RESULTS: The exon 11 of TGFBR-3 were not identified gene polymorphism and two nucleotide polymorphisms were identified in exon 12. For 2022 T/C polymorphism, the frequencies of CC with 0.9% (1/110), TC with 22.7% (25/110), TT with 76.4% (84/110), C with 12.3% (27/220) and T with 87.7% (193/220) in POF group were significantly different from CC with 0, TC with 9.1% (10/110) and TT with 90.9% (100/110), C with 4.5% (10/220) and T with 95.5% (210/220) in control group (all P<0.05). Allelic and genotypic frequencies of 2161-75 C/T were not differed significantly between the two groups (all P>0.05). As DNA sequencing as golden standard, DHPLC showed that the sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 97.9%, Youden index was 97.9%, positive predictive value was 96.3%, negative predictive value was 100%, and Kappa index was 0.888 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: DHPLC analysis is higher validity, reliability and practicability method in detecting TGFBR-3 polymorphism in idiopathic premature ovarian failure.
