TLDR
PCOS patients with mutant genotype had significantly higher level of total testosterone and clinical features like FG score, alopecia than those of wild and heterozygous genotype, indicating association with hyperandrogenism in Kashmiri population.
Abstract
Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a complex reproductive as well as endocrinological disorder characterized by anovulatory dysfunction, androgen excess and polycystic ovarian morphology. Hyperandrogen...

A Review on CYP11A1, CYP17A1, and CYP19A1 Polymorphism Studies: Candidate Susceptibility Genes for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Infertility

TL;DR: This study strongly suggests that the CYP11A1, CYP17A 1, and CYP19A1 genes might significantly enhance the probability of developing PCOS with infertility.

Exposure to bisphenol A and its analogs and polycystic ovarian syndrome in women of childbearing age: A multicenter case-control study.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper found that mixed exposure to seven bisphenol analogs was associated with increased odds of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), which was primarily driven by BPA, BPS, BPZ, and BPAF.

An update on polycystic ovary syndrome: A review of the current state of knowledge in diagnosis, genetic etiology, and emerging treatment options

TL;DR: The most recent research done to establish relationships between different gene polymorphisms with polycystic ovary syndrome in various populations along with the underestimated impact of environmental factors like endocrine-disrupting chemicals on the reproductive health of these women are looked at.

The single-nucleotide polymorphism rs743572 of CYP17A1 shows significant association with polycystic ovary syndrome: a meta-analysis

TL;DR: The rs743572 T>C mutation was most likely to be associated with PCOS risk under the recessive model, and the mutant genotype CC may increase susceptibility to PCOS in Caucasians rather than Asians.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common endocrine disorders associated with the polycystic ovary syndrome.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suggested the screening of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women for hypothyroidism and hyperprolactinemia, because the undiagnosed hypomethroidism can aggravate the PCOS symptoms.

Androgen Excess in Women: Experience with Over 1000 Consecutive Patients

TL;DR: Specific identifiable disorders (NCAH, CAH, HAIRAN syndrome, and androgen-secreting neoplasms) were observed in approximately 7% of subjects, whereas functional androgen excess, principally PCOS, was observed in the remainder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polycystic ovaries and premature male pattern baldness are associated with one allele of the steroid metabolism gene CYP17

TL;DR: Variation in the A2 allele of the CYP17 gene is a significant factor modifying the expression of PCO/MPB in families where it has been demonstrated to segregate as a single gene disorder, but it is excluded as the primary genetic defect.

Geographical Prevalence of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome as Determined by Region and Race/Ethnicity.

TL;DR: This review will seek to determine the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome based on geographical location and race/ethnicity.

Impact of obesity on infertility in women.

TL;DR: Overweight women have a higher incidence of menstrual dysfunction and anovulation, and are at a high risk for reproductive health, and weight loss has beneficial effects on the reproductive outcomes in patients.

CYP17 and breast cancer risk: the polymorphism in the 5' flanking area of the gene does not influence binding to Sp-1.

TL;DR: Genotyping of 510 breast cancer patients and 201 controls revealed no difference in genotype frequencies and age at onset, tumor grade, lymph node status and distant metastases, stage, and estrogen and progesterone receptor status were not associated with the CYP17 genotype.
