research In vivo and in vitro exposure to free fatty acids induce increased androgen production in animal models: a potential pathogenic factor of the polycystic ovary syndrome
Free fatty acids may increase androgen production, potentially contributing to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Genetic ablation of myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice increases energy expenditure, improves glycemic control, and reduces hepatic lipid synthesis
Removing myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice leads to better metabolism and resistance to obesity.
research Age-related differences in the reproductive and metabolic implications of polycystic ovarian syndrome: findings in an obese, United States population
Older obese women with PCOS have higher cardiovascular and metabolic risks despite lower androgen levels.
research No metabolic impact of surgical normalization of hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women with ovarian androgen-secreting tumours
Surgery to lower high testosterone in postmenopausal women with certain ovarian tumors doesn't significantly affect their metabolism.
