A Possible New Mechanism in the Pathophysiology of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): The Discovery That Leukocyte Telomere Length Is Strongly Associated With PCOS

4 Dec 2013

Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Telomeres are specialized chromatin structures located at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, and telomere length plays a clear role in various diseases. However, it is not known whether telomere length is related to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). OBJECTIVE: We hypothesized that leukocyte telomere length (LTL) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of PCOS. DESIGN: We used an established and...
