Vitamin D Receptor TaqI Gene Variant in Exon 9 and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Risk
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is known as a metabolic disorder. The results of recent studies implied that vitamin D receptor (VDR) genetic variants may impact PCOS and insulin resistance in women with PCOS. The aim of the present study was to determine the VDR TaqI gene variant in exon 9 (T/C) (rs731236) in normal controls and patients with PCOS for the first time in Iranian Azer...

Background Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder. The roles of vitamin D in the regulation of metabolic modulations specifically involving insulin action and reproduction processing are introduced. In addition, obesity appears to be closely associated with severity of PCOS. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of BMI on vitamin D levels in follicular...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The Vitamin-D receptor (VDR) regulates vitamin D levels and calcium metabolism in the body and these are known to be associated with endocrine dysfunctions, insulin resistance and type-2 diabetes in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Studies on VDR polymorphisms among PCOS women are sparse. We undertook this study to investigate the association pattern of VDR polymorphi...

BACKGROUND Vitamin D and insulin play an important role in susceptibility to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and therefore vitamin D receptor (VDR), parathyroid hormone (PTH), and insulin receptor (INSR) gene variants might be involved in the pathogenesis of PCOS. OBJECTIVE The present study was designed to investigate the possible associations between polymorphisms in VDR, PTH, and INSR ge...

OBJECTIVE The main aim of this study was to determine the association of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH D) levels with hormonal, clinical and metabolic profile in patients with and without Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-eight normal-weight (body mass index (BMI) of 19-24.99 kg/m2) women with PCOS, 36 overweight (BMI of 25-29.9 kg/m2) women with PCOS and 56 nor...
