Gene Functions References
- The present mini-review provides an overview of recent findings relating GDF-9 and BMP-15 as fundamental factors implicated in the regulation of ovarian function and discusses their potential role as markers of oocyte quality in women. PMID: 30039232
- Data suggest that GDF9 and BMP15 are oocyte-secreted factors with leading roles in control of ovarian function in female reproduction, modulating both fate of somatic granulosa cells and quality/developmental competence of the egg. (GDF9 = growth and differentiation factor-9; BMP15 = bone morphogenetic protein-15) [REVIEW] PMID: 29544636
- the expression of BMP15 in follicular fluid and Smad1 in granulosa cells was significantly decreased in the PCOS group compared with the control (P<0.05). The data suggested that the BMP15/Smad1 signalling pathway may be involved in granulosa cell apoptosis PMID: 28983616
- BMP15 did not seem critical for follicles to enter the growth phase. Genetic counselling should be performed and fertility preservation discussed before progressive loss of follicular reserve PMID: 28094433
- Mutations in BMP15 associated with primary ovarian insufficiency reduce mature protein production, activity, or synergy with GDF9. PMID: 28359091
- Human GDF9 and BMP15 act synergistically to stimulate granulosa cell proliferation, a response that also involves species-specific non-SMAD signalling pathways. PMID: 25155366
- GDF9 c.169G>T (D57Y), c.546G>A (rs1049127), and BMP15 rs79377927 (788_789insTCT) were associated with premature ovarian failure in the Chinese Hui population. PMID: 25954833
- BMP15 supplementation differentially modulates reductive metabolism and mitochondrial localization within the oocyte. PMID: 25721374
- results support a model of activation for human GDF9 dependent on cumulin formation through heterodimerization with BMP15. Oocyte-secreted cumulin is likely to be a central regulator of fertility in mono-ovular mammals. PMID: 26254468
- GDF9 and BMP15 expression is reduced in primordial, primary, and secondary follicles in ovarian tissues of PCOS patients. PMID: 25172094
- The results showed no direct association between BMP15-9G or 852T and the development of premature ovarian failure (POF). Women with the 538A mutation are up to five times more likely to develop POF. The 788insTCT polymorphism had low biological impact. PMID: 25445105
- the BMP15 c.-9G allele is related to BMP15 increased transcription, supporting c.-9C>G as a causal agent of premature ovarian failure PMID: 25246117
- BMP15 polymorphism is not associated with ovarian reserve. PMID: 25336710
- BMP15 is a critical regulator of folliculogenesis and granulosa cell activities. Variations in BMP15 gene dosage have a relevant influence on ovarian function and can account for several defects of female fertility. PMID: 24980253
- Data suggest upregulation of mRNA for BMP15 and GDF9 (growth differentiation factor 9) in cumulus granulosa cells serves as biomarker for oocyte maturation, fertilization, embryo quality, and pregnancy in couples undergoing ICSI for male infertility. PMID: 25139161
- Oocyte-derived BMP15 decreases gap junction intercellular communication activity between human granulosa cells by down-regulating Cx43 expression, most likely via a Smad-dependent signaling pathway. PMID: 24413384
- BMP15 down-regulates StAR expression and decreases progesterone production in human granulosa cells, likely via ALK3-mediated SMAD1/5/8 signaling. PMID: 24140593
- Data from cultured mouse preantral follicles suggest that [human recombinant] BMP15 promotes follicle growth in short term (24 hours) incubation; subsequently BMP15 (48-72 hours) causes follicular atresia with increased granulosa cell apoptosis. PMID: 23782946
- genetic association studies in population of women in Spain: Data suggest an association between an SNP in BMP15 (rs3897937) and age at menopause; thus, duration of fertility in women may have genetic determinants involved in estrogen metabolism. PMID: 23173577
- BMP15 and GDF9 transcript levels increase in mature oocytes from women with polycystic ovary syndrome after ovarian stimulation, and might inhibit the progesterone secretion by follicular cells PMID: 22825968
- the activation of bone morphogenetic protein 15 gene (BMP15) during the differentiation of human amniotic fluid stem cells (hAFSCs) into oocyte-like cells PMID: 22356426
