Popis: The choice of ovarian stimulation protocols in assisted reproduction technology (ART) cycles for low ovarian reserve patients is challenging. Our previous report indicated that the gonadotrophin-releasing (GnRH) agonist (GnRHa) protocol is better than the GnRH antagonist (GnRHant) protocol for young age poor responders. Here, we recruited 269 patients with anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) <
1.2 ng/mL undergoing their first ART cycles for this nested case-control study. We investigated the genetic variants of the relevant genes, including follicular stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR
rs6166), AMH (rs10407022), GnRH (rs6185), and GnRH receptor (GnRHR
rs3756159) in patients <
35 years (n = 86) and patients ≥35 years of age (n = 183). Only the genotype of GnRHR (rs3756159) is distributed differently in young (CC 39.5%, CT/TT 60.5%) versus advanced (CC 24.0%, CT/TT 76.0%) age groups (recessive model, p = 0.0091). Furthermore, the baseline luteinizing hormone (LH) levels (3.60 (2.45 to 5.40) vs. 4.40 (2.91 to 6.48)) are different between CC and CT/TT genotype of GnRHR (rs3756159). In conclusion, the genetic variants of GnRHR (rs3756159) could modulate the release of LH in the pituitary gland and might then affect the outcome of ovarian stimulation by GnRHant or GnRHa protocols for patients with low AMH levels.
