Key Genes Associated With Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Yong Chen et al.

Summary: This study used bioinformatics methods to investigate the association between PCOS and NAFLD and identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The results showed that DEGs were mainly enriched in immunity and inflammation-related pathways. By constructing PPI network and miRNA-gene network, key genes and miRNAs were predicted.

Low dose spironolactone-mediated androgen-adiponectin modulation alleviates endocrine-metabolic disturbances in letrozole-induced PCOS

Kehinde S. Olaniyi et al.

Summary: The study found that low-dose spironolactone (LDS) can improve endocrine-metabolic disturbances and inflammation-related comorbidities in experimentally-induced PCOS rats by modulating the circulating androgen-adiponectin status.

Oxidative Stress and Low-Grade Inflammation in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Controversies and New Insights

Antonio Mancini et al.

Summary: The pathophysiology of PCOS involves complex mechanisms such as obesity, insulin-resistance, oxidative stress, and low-grade inflammation, which may lead to obesity, insulin resistance, vitamin D deficiency, and immune dyscrasia. These factors can interact and exacerbate each other's effects, suggesting an inverse interaction from the traditional understanding.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in polycystic ovary syndrome women

Young Bin Won et al.

Summary: MetS diagnosis and hyperandrogenism at PCOS diagnosis were significantly associated with NAFLD occurrence, while 2-h insulin level in 75 g GTT and BMI>25 kg/m(2) were not. Elevated aspartate aminotransferase levels were significant for NAFLD risk, but liver enzyme elevations may not appear until late liver damage.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the anti-androgenic effects of spironolactone and cyproterone acetate in transgender women. The results showed that cyproterone acetate had a significantly higher testosterone suppression efficacy than spironolactone.
