research 11-oxyandrogen Concentrations in Adolescents With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Adolescents with PCOS have higher levels of certain androgens, which are linked to hair growth but don't help diagnose PCOS better than testosterone levels.
research Sdr16c5 and Sdr16c6 control a dormant pathway at a bifurcation point between meibogenesis and sebogenesis
Sdr16c5 and Sdr16c6 genes regulate a key point in lipid production that affects eye and skin gland function.

Certain genes in fat tissue affect weight loss in women with PCOS.
research Epigenetic regulation of 5α reductase-1 underlies adaptive plasticity of reproductive function and pubertal timing
Environmental factors affect reproductive traits by altering the SRD5A1 gene.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research The biochemical and phenotypic characterization of females homozygous for 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency.
Females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency have less body hair, no acne, normal fertility, and delayed menarche.
research A meta-analysis of the relationship between vitamin D receptor gene ApaI polymorphisms and polycystic ovary syndrome
Certain variations in the vitamin D receptor gene are linked to an increased risk of polycystic ovary syndrome.
