A study led by the ICMR, National Institute for Research on Women's Health in Mumbai has identified 21 suggestive genetic regions associated with endometriosis in Indian women, described by its researchers as the first genome-wide association study of the disease from India and South Asia. Published in the journal Scientific Reports, the study analysed genetic data from 2,523 participants gathered across 18 centres nationwide under the Endometriosis Clinical and Genetic Research in India initiative, and found the strongest signal near the LINC00415/SHISA2 region on chromosome 13. The researchers said the findings are not yet ready for clinical use or individual risk prediction, but provide a foundation for future genetic studies of endometriosis in South Asian populations.
