Abstract

Exonuclease 1 (EXO1) is required for both DNA repair and meiosis. Inactivation of EXO1 gene in mice leads to infertility. This study aimed to investigate whether variants in the EXO1 gene contribute to human premature ovarian failure (POF). The coding region of EXO1 was sequenced in 186 Han Chinese patients with non-syndromic POF. No plausible mutation was detected. The results suggest that mutations in the coding region of EXO1 may not be responsible for POF in Han Chinese women.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
