Serum C-Reactive Protein Levels in Normal-Weight Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
BACKGROUND/AIMS Serum levels of highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), a vascular inflammatory marker, may predict the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are at greater risk for type 2 diabetes and CVD. The aim of this study was to compare hsCRP levels between normal weight women with PCOS and controls with a normal...
متن کاملvisfatin and resistin serum levels in normal-weight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
conclusions while the expression of visfatin and resistin may be upregulated in women with pcos, it is not translated at serum level. results serum levels of resistin were higher among both obese and normal-weight women with pcos in comparison with the controls (2.36 and 1.58 ng/ml in normal-weight women with pcos and controls, respectively; and 2.10 and 1.91 ng/ml in obese women with pcos and ...
متن کاملVisfatin and Resistin Serum Levels in Normal-Weight and Obese Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy among women of reproductive age that is linked to insulin resistance and obesity. While studies have shown that plasma levels of resistin and visfatin increase with obesity, the association between PCOS and these markers has not been described well. OBJECTIVES This case-control study aimed to compare the serum level...
متن کاملAssociation between serum levels of Adipokines and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder associated with metabolic disorders and infertility. Evidence suggests that the adipose tissue secreted products, adipokines, play an important role in the pathophysiology of PCOS. Reciprocally, PCOS influences on the adipokines serum content, also on gene or protein expression of some of them. Finding out of assoc...
متن کاملIncreased serum neopterin levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) occurs in 5-10% of premenopausal women. Studies suggest that PCOS is associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). To investigate this relationship, 15 PCOS women (group 1) and 10 healthy women (group 2) were studied. Blood leukocyte counts (white blood cells, WBC) and serum levels of total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, sensiti...
