Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A significant overlap in the pathophysiological features of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been reported; and insulin resistance is considered a central driver in both. The expression and hepatic clearance of insulin and subsequent glucose homeostasis are mediated by TCF7L2 via Wnt signaling. Studies have persistently associated TCF7L2 genetic variations with...
