Absence of SYCP3 mutations in women with recurrent miscarriage with at least one trisomic miscarriage

摘要

Mutations within the coding regions of the synaptonemal complex gene SYCP3 have previously been reported in women with recurrent miscarriage. The present study found no mutations in any of the coding exons or the intron/exon boundaries among 50 recurrent miscarriage patients with at least one documented trisomic miscarriage, suggesting that mutations in SYCP3 do not contribute significantly to risk for recurrent miscarriage through maternal meiotic nondisjunction.
