Popis: Research question Are there any associations between the variants of FSHR c.2039 G>A (p. Ser680Asn, rs6166) and LHCGR c.935A>G (p. Asn312Ser, rs2293275) and ovarian reserve, ovarian response, clinical pregnancy rate and POSEIDON group? Design A total of 210 infertile women were enrolled in this prospective study. The gene variants were analysed by the Sanger method. The clinical parameters were analysed based on genotypes. Results The frequency of heterozygous and homozygous G allele for FSHR c.2039 G>A in the low prognosis group was significantly higher than that in other response groups (P = 0.034); there was no significant association between LHCGR c.935 A>G and ovarian response. Moreover, the serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) concentration, antral follicle count (AFC), oocytes retrieved, metaphase II (MII) oocytes and two-pronuclear (2PN) oocytes in patients with AG genotype for FSHR c.2039 G>A were significantly lower than those with AA genotype. The serum LH concentrations and clinical pregnancy rate of fresh embryo transfer in patients with GG genotype for LHCGR c.935 A>G were significantly higher than that of the AG genotype. In POSEIDON analysis, the low prognosis women with AA genotype for FSHR c.2039 G>A were more likely to appear in subgroup 1 (P = 0.038). Conclusion The FSHR c.2039 G>A variant has a significant beneficial influence on ovarian reserve and ovarian response. The LHCGR c.935 A>G variant is associated with increased clinical pregnancy rate of fresh embryo transfer in infertile women. In addition, the low prognosis women with AA genotype for FSHR c.2039 G>A tend to show better ovarian reserve and prognosis.
