Resumo
To show that in the dysgenetic gonads of 104 Turner syndrome patients no significant difference was found regarding the expression of the genes DAX1, FOG2, GATA4, OCT4, SF1, SRY, TSPY, WT1, and STRA8 compared with controls, except for genes OCT4, SRY, and TSPY in both gonads of a patient whose chromosomal constitution was 45,X/45,X,add(15)(p11). the expression analysis of genes OCT4, SRY, and TSPY in the dysgenetic gonads of Turner syndrome patients may allow introducing modifications in the microenvironment that could contributed to a malignant transformation process.
