Association of miR-938G>A Polymorphisms with Primary Ovarian Insufficiency (POI)-Related Gene Expression.
International Journal of Molecular Sciences 2017 June 13
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression in animals and plants. The aim of this study was to investigate whether polymorphisms in miR-938 are associated with the risk of primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) and POI-related target gene regulation. We identified the miR-938 G>A polymorphisms within the seed sequence of mature miRNA and aligned the seed sequence with the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor ( GnRHR ) mRNA, a miR-938 target gene. We found that the binding of miR-938 to the 3'-UTR of GnRHR mRNA was significantly different between normal and variant alleles. Our data suggests that the dysregulation of miR-938 G>A influences the binding to GnRHR and that miR-938 G>A polymorphisms might contribute to regulation of POI-related target genes.
