Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A role for resistin in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and related features were described for various ethnicities. As its expression is partly inherited, a role for RETN polymorphisms in regulating resistin levels and PCOS risk was shown, but with varied results. AIM: To investigate the association of rs34124816 (-537A>C), rs1862513 (-420C>G), rs3219175 (-358G>A), rs3745367...
