Insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Fertility and sterility - 1 Jul 2006

Dunaif Andrea

Abstract excerpt

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with insulin resistance. There are also defects in pancreatic beta-cell function in affected women. These abnormalities are heritable. There are post-binding defects in insulin receptor signaling, with selective resistance to insulin's metabolic actions and constitutively activated mitogenic signaling in skeletal muscle. Intrinsic and environmental abnormalities...
