摘要
目的:探讨中国汉族苗勒管发育异常患者中HOXA13基因是否存在突变。方法:对58例中国汉族苗勒管发育异常患者(包括51例苗勒管融合不全患者、7例先天性无阴道无子宫患者)和54例正常对照者进行HOXA13基因检测。PCR扩增目的片断后,毛细管电泳分析HOXA13基因1号外显子多聚丙氨酸束和自动化测序分析基因2号外显子同源结构域。结果:HOXA13基因1号外显子毛细管电泳分析结果显示,患者和对照者毛细管电泳图均显示单一的PCR产物峰,提示没有发现多聚丙氨酸束片断长度改变或多态现象。2号外显子直接自动化测序分析结果显示,在患者和对照者中均没有突变发生。结论:中国汉族妇女苗勒管发育异常的发生可能与HOXA13基因的多聚丙氨酸束长度扩增或同源结构域突变无关。
Objective: To investigate whether HOXA13 gene mutation existed in Chinese Han patients with Müllerian duct abnormalities. Methods: HOXA13 gene was detected in 58 Chinese Han patients(including 51 patients with incomplete Müllerian fusion, 7 congenital absence of uterus and vagina (CAUV)) and 54 control individuals. The objective fragments were amplificated by PCR, the polyalanine tracts of exon 1 were aralyzed by capillary electrophoresis and the homeodomain of exon 2 was sequenced in the identical patients and the controls. Results: The result of capillary electrophoresis analysis of exon 1 displayed uniform PCR productive peak in all patients and controls which hints no length changes or polymorphism of polyalanine tracts. Directed automatic sequencing of exon 2 revealed that no mutations were found in patients and controls. Conclusions: The original research did not find mutations in HOXA13 gene detecting regions; length expansion of polyalanine tracts and homeodomain mutation of HOXA13 gene may not be the correlated etiological factors which lead to Müllerian duct abnormalities in Chinese Han patients.
