Non-cell autonomous mechanisms control mitochondrial gene dysregulation in polycystic ovary syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder associated with insulin resistance and impaired energy metabolism in skeletal muscle, the aetiology of which is currently unclear. Here, we mapped the gene expression profile of skeletal muscle from women with PCOS and determined if cultured primary myotubes retain the gene expression signature of PCOS in vivo. Transcriptomic analysis of vastus lateralis biopsies collected from PCOS women showed lower expression of genes associated with mitochondrial function, while the expression of genes associated with the extracellular matrix was higher compared to controls. Altered skeletal muscle mRNA expression of mitochondrial-associated genes in PCOS was associated with lower protein expression of mitochondrial complex II-V, but not complex I, with no difference in mitochondrial DNA content. Transcriptomic analysis of primary myotube cultures established from biopsies did not display any differentially expressed genes between controls and PCOS. Comparison of gene expression profiles in skeletal muscle biopsies and primary myotube cultures showed lower expression of mitochondrial and energy metabolism-related genes in vitro, irrespective of the group. Together, our results show that the altered mitochondrial-associated gene expression in skeletal muscle in PCOS is not preserved in cultured myotubes, indicating that the in vivo extracellular milieu, rather than genetic or epigenetic factors, may drive this alteration. Dysregulation of mitochondrial-associated genes in skeletal muscle by extracellular factors may contribute to the impaired energy metabolism associated with PCOS.

Polycystic ovary syndrome and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent hormonal disorder of premenopausal women worldwide and is characterized by reproductive, endocrine, and metabolic abnormalities. The clinical manifestations of PCOS include oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea, hyperandrogenism, ovarian polycystic changes, and infertility. Women with PCOS are at an increased risk of suffering from type 2 diabetes; me\tabolic syndrome; cardiovascular events, such as hypertension, dyslipidemia; gynecological diseases, including infertility, endometrial dysplasia, endometrial cancer, and ovarian malignant tumors; pregnancy complications, such as premature birth, low birthweight, and eclampsia; and emotional and mental disorders in the future. Although numerous studies have focused on PCOS, the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of this disease remain unclear. Mitochondria play a key role in energy production, and mitochondrial dysfunction at the cellular level can affect systemic metabolic balance. The recent wide acceptance of functional mitochondrial disorders as a correlated factor of numerous diseases has led to the presupposition that abnormal mitochondrial metabolic markers are associated with PCOS. Studies conducted in the past few years have confirmed that increased oxidative stress is associated with the progression and related complications of PCOS and have proven the relationship between other mitochondrial dysfunctions and PCOS. Thus, this review aims to summarize and discuss previous and recent findings concerning the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and PCOS.

Long non-coding RNA <i>TUG1</i> and its molecular mechanisms in polycystic ovary syndrome.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) causes anovulatory infertility in women of reproductive age, but etiopathogenesis of PCOS remains undetermined. Taurine up-regulated 1 (TUG1), an evolutionarily conserved long non-coding RNA, performs various biological functions; however, the role of TUG1 in PCOS remains unclear. Herein, TUG1 expression was assayed in granulosa cells (GCs) of 100 patients with PCOS and 100 control participants. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was conducted to determine the diagnostic value of TUG1 in PCOS. TUG1 expression was also silenced in KGN cells to explore the role of TUG1 in cellular proliferation, apoptosis, cell-cycle progression, autophagy, and steroidogenesis. We found that TUG1 levels were dramatically increased in the PCOS group compared with those of the control group; this increased expression was related to a rising antral follicle count (R = 0.209, P < 0.001 versus control). The ROC curve indicated a significant separation between PCOS group and the control group (AUC: 0.702; 95% CI: 0.630-0.773; P < 0.001). TUG1 showed a predominantly nuclear localization in human GCs. TUG1 knockdown reduced cellular proliferation, and promoted MAPKs pathway-dependent apoptosis and P21-dependent autophagy, but may not affect cell-cycle progression. TUG1 knockdown increased aromatase expression and oestradiol biosynthesis. Our results indicate that increased TUG1 expression in PCOS GCs may contribute to excessive follicular activation and growth, and may disrupt the selection of dominant follicle. Our study shows that TUG1 can be used as a diagnostic biomarker for PCOS.

Differential genes in adipocytes induced from polycystic ovary syndrome-derived and non- polycystic ovary syndrome-derived human embryonic stem cells

Project description:To explore the molecular mechanisms of obesity and insulin resistance in the patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) at the level of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs).Three PCOS-derived and one non-PCOS-derived hESC lines were induced into adipocytes, and then total mRNA was extracted from these adipocytes. The differential genes between PCOS-derived and non-PCOS-derived adipocytes were identified with GeneChip, and then were validated with real-time PCR.There were 153 differential genes. Of the 153 genes, 91 genes were up-regulated and 62 down-regulated. Nuclear receptor subfamily 0, group B, member 2 (NR0B2) was an up-regulated gene, and GeneChip software system indicated that it was associated with obesity and diabetes. Three PCOS-derived and one non-PCOS-derived hESC lines were induced into adipocytes, and then total mRNA was extracted from these adipocytes. The differential genes between PCOS-derived and non-PCOS-derived adipocytes were identified with GeneChip, and then were validated with real-time PCR.

Polycystic ovary syndrome: effect and mechanisms of acupuncture for ovulation induction.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age, is characterized by the coexistence of hyperandrogenism, ovulatory dysfunction, and polycystic ovaries (PCO). PCOS also represents the largest part of female oligoovulatory infertility, and the management of ovulatory and menstrual dysfunction, comprises a third of the high costs of PCOS treatment. Current pharmacological and surgical treatments for reproductive symptoms are effective, however, associated with negative side effects, such as cardiovascular complications and multiple pregnancies. For menstrual irregularities and ovulation induction in women with PCOS, acupuncture has indicated beneficial effects. This review will focus on the results from randomized controlled acupuncture trials for regulation of menstrual dysfunction and for inducing ovulation in women with PCOS although there are uncontrolled trials with nonetheless interesting results. Animal experimental studies will be further discussed when they can provide a more mechanistic explanatory view.

Association of vitamin D receptor gene variants with polycystic ovary syndrome: A case control study.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Vitamin D and insulin play an important role in susceptibility to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and therefore vitamin D receptor (VDR), parathyroid hormone (PTH), and insulin receptor (INSR) gene variants might be involved in the pathogenesis of PCOS. OBJECTIVE:The present study was designed to investigate the possible associations between polymorphisms in VDR, PTH, and INSR genes and the risk of PCOS. MATERIALS AND METHODS:VDR, PTH, and INSR gene variants were genotyped in 35 women with PCOS and 35 controls using Polymerase chain reaction - Restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Furthermore, serum levels of glucose and insulin were measured in all participants. RESULTS:No significant differences were observed for the VDR FokI, VDR Tru9I, VDR TaqI, PTH DraII, INSR NsiI, and INSR PmlI gene polymorphisms between the women with PCOS and controls. However, after adjustment for confounding factors, the VDR BsmI "Bb" genotype and the VDR ApaI "Aa" genotype were significantly under transmitted to the patients (p= 0.016; OR= 0.250; 95% CI= 0.081-0.769, and p= 0.017; OR= 0.260; 95% CI= 0.086-0.788, respectively). Furthermore, in the women with PCOS, insulin levels were lower in the participants with the INSR NsiI "NN" genotype compared with those with the "Nn + nn" genotypes (P= 0.045). CONCLUSION:The results showed an association between the VDR gene BsmI and ApaI polymorphisms and PCOS risk. These data also indicated that the INSR "NN" genotype was a marker of decreased insulin in women with PCOS. Our findings, however, do not lend support to the hypothesis that PTH gene DraII variant plays a role in susceptibility to PCOS.

Evaluating reported candidate gene associations with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Project description:ObjectiveTo replicate variants in candidate genes associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in a population of European women with PCOS and control subjects.DesignCase-control association analysis and meta-analysis.SettingMajor academic hospital.Patient(s)Women of European ancestry with PCOS (n = 525) and controls (n = 472), aged 18-45 years.Intervention(s)Variants previously associated with PCOS in candidate gene studies were genotyped (n = 39). Metabolic, reproductive, and anthropomorphic parameters were examined as a function of the candidate variants. All genetic association analyses were adjusted for age, body mass index, and ancestry and were reported after correction for multiple testing.Main outcome measure(s)Association of candidate gene variants with PCOS.Result(s)Three variants, rs3797179 (SRD5A1), rs12473543 (POMC), and rs1501299 (ADIPOQ), were nominally associated with PCOS. However, they did not remain significant after correction for multiple testing, and none of the variants replicated in a sufficiently powered meta-analysis. Variants in the FBN3 gene (rs17202517 and rs73503752) were associated with smaller waist circumferences, and variant rs727428 in the SHBG gene was associated with lower sex hormone-binding globulin levels.Conclusion(s)Previously identified variants in candidate genes do not seem to be associated with PCOS risk.Clinical trial registration numberNCT00166569.

Obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrinopathies in women of fertile age. Obesity is encountered in 30-70% of PCOS-affected women, and its presence significantly modifies both clinical and laboratory expression of the syndrome. Obesity increases the risk of co-morbidities associated with PCOS, such as impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia and arterial hypertension. The etiopathogenesis of obesity in PCOS has not yet been exactly clarified. There clearly is a vicious circle of abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, and hyperadrogenemia. Differences in ghrelin and neuropeptide Y levels between PCOS patients and those with simple obesity were also described. Weight loss is the first choice recommendation for the treatment of clinical manifestations of PCOS, such as menstrual cycle irregularities, infertility or hirsutism. However, the best treatment approach in obese PCOS patients remains to be defined. Studies concerning different weight loss regimens, antiobesity drugs, bariatric surgery, insulin sensitizers, and hormonal therapy are reviewed.
