Abstract:

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a common endocrine disease in women, which can not only lead to osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases and abnormal menstruation, but also seriously affect the fertility of women of childbearing age. With the rapid development of exome and genome sequencing, many genes involved in meiosis and DNA damage repair in the POI pathogenesis were found. The pathogenic factors of this disease are complex, so understanding the pathogenic factors is beneficial to clinical diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, the research progress of related genes and mutations in the early onset ovarian insufficiency, meiosis and DNA damage repair was reviewed.

Key words: Primary ovarian insufficiency, Mutation, Meiosis, DNA repair, Premature ovarian failure, Premature ovarian insufficiency
