Estrogen receptor alpha polymorphisms and fertility in populations with different reproductive patterns.
No full textThe estrogen receptor (ER) plays an important role in mediating estrogen action on target tissues. ER-alpha, the most abundant, is
found in all human reproductive tissues and studies on alpha-ER knockout mice have highlighted its role in reproduction.
ER-alpha gene (ESR1) polymorphisms have been associated with a variety of disorders including human infertility. In this
study, we examined the association of ESR1 PvuII and XbaI polymorphisms with fertility in two populations with different reproductive
patterns and precisely in a sample of healthy Italian men and women (n 5 178) and in a sample of healthy African-Ecuadorian
women (n 5 57). ESR1 xx and ppxx genotypes among the Italian men were found to be associated with an above-median
number of children (P 5 0.01 and P 5 0.004, respectively). ESR1 pp genotype among the Italian women showed a tendency to be
associated with a lower number of abortions (P 5 0.04), whereas ESR1 pp and ppxx genotypes among African-Ecuadorian women
were associated with a higher number of children (P 5 0.02 and P 5 0.03, respectively). These results are consistent with previous
observations indicating a role of ESR1 genotypes in human infertility and give insight into the complex interactions between genotypes
and reproductive behaviours in human populations
