Association between VEGF gene polymorphisms (11 sites) and polycystic ovary syndrome risk

Abstract: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a critical role in ovarian folliculogenesis and normal reproductive function. So far, several studies focusing on association between VEGF gene polymorphisms and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, above association between the VEGF gene polymorphisms and PCOS susceptibility is uncertain. Hence, we performed a timely meta-analysis containing all current publications to make clear this relationship. We searched articles from the PubMed, Embase and Chinese l… Show more

“…The significant role of rs833061 in recurrent miscarriage is noted in [23]. Associations of this polymorphic locus with the development of congenital heart defects [24], polycystic ovary disease [25], various cancers (ovarian cancer [26], lung cancer [27]), and metabolic diseases (diabetic retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus [28]) are shown.…”

“…The VEGF gene is located in the chromosome region 6p21.3 5 . Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been observed in the promoter, intronic, and untranslated regions of the VEGF gene, and several studies have suggested VEGF gene polymorphisms may be associated with PCOS risk [6][7][8] . VEGF rs833061 T and rs2010963 G alleles appear to correlate with altered VEGF expression levels.…”
