PMID: 33025164 - a mouse model heterozygous for a hypomorphic variant (c.3581del9, p.QEA1194-1196del) had impaired follicle development and sub-fertility.
PMID: 32962729 - a POI case heterozygous for a rare missense variant (p.H780Q)
PMID: 31535215 - 2 unrelated Chinese POI cases with 2 different rare missense variants (p.R591Q, 42 hets in gnomAD v2.1 & p.E1296G), both with supporting in vitro functional assays. Also, a heterozygous loss of function (Fanca+/-) mouse model showed reduced fertility and declined numbers of follicles with aging
PMID: 10915769 - female knockout mice demonstrate hypogonadism and infertility
Hypergonadotropic hypogonadism is listed as an endocrine feature of the Fanconi anaemia phenotype in OMIM.
