pubmed:abstractText |
Although insulin-like factor 3 (INSL3) and its receptor leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 8/G protein-coupled receptor affecting testis descent (LGR8/GREAT) are essential for the gubernacular development, mutations of INSL3 and LGR8/GREAT are infrequent in patients with cryptorchidism (CO), and there is no report documenting a positive association of CO with a polymorphism in INSL3 or LGR8/GREAT. Here, we further examined the relevance of INSL3 and LGR8/GREAT mutations and polymorphisms to the development of CO.
