Investigating the association of previously identified genome-wide significant loci (rs10739076 and rs1784692) with PCOS susceptibility and its related traits in Indian women. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2024; 294:156-162. [PMID: 38245954 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.01.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 11/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE(S) Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifactorial endocrinopathy with an enigmatic etiology. Hallmark features include irregular menstrual cycles, insulin resistance and hyperandrogenemia and affected women are prone to development of adverse reproductive and cardiometabolic outcomes like anovulatory infertility, impaired glucose tolerance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. Genetic underpinnings of PCOS have been investigated extensively using genome-wide association studies, which have led to the identification of several novel susceptibility loci. However, as ethnic diversity contributes to phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity, we undertook the first genetic association study to determine the association of rs10739076 of PLGRKT and rs1784692 of ZBTB16 with PCOS susceptibility and its related traits in Indian women. STUDY DESIGN The present case-control study comprised 497 women with PCOS diagnosed according to the Rotterdam criteria and 233 age matched healthy women as controls. All participants were characterized in terms of anthropometric, hormonal and metabolic parameters and the variants were investigated by direct sequencing. Genotypic and genotype-phenotype association of these variants with PCOS susceptibility and its related biochemical and hormonal traits was analyzed with appropriate statistical tests. RESULTS The genotypic and allelic frequencies of rs1784692 of ZBTB16 were significantly decreased in lean women with PCOS only, and this variant was associated with lowered insulin levels, HOMA-IR, LH:FSH ratio along with increased ApoA1 levels and QUICKI in them. Although, the PLGRKT variant, rs10739076, showed similar frequency distribution in both lean and obese groups, it was found to be associated with reduced fasting glucose in all women with PCOS. CONCLUSION(S) To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that ZBTB16 variant showed significant association with reduced PCOS susceptibility in lean rather than obese Indian women, highlighting the impact of obesity on determining genetic predisposition to PCOS in Indian women. In contrast, PLGRKT variant did not influence PCOS risk in lean or obese women. Importantly, both variants exerted a protective effect on glucose metabolism, insulin resistance, gonadotropin and lipid levels in women with PCOS. Determination of susceptibility variants for PCOS demand population specific replication studies to ascertain best candidate loci for PCOS.

Abstract
Excessive androgen production and obesity are key to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) pathogenesis. Prenatal androgenized (PNA), peripubertal androgenized, and overexpression of nerve growth factor in theca cells (17NF) are commonly used PCOS-like mouse models and diet-induced maternal obesity model is often included for comparsion. To reveal the molecular features of these models, we have performed transcriptome survey of the hypothalamus, adipose tissue, ovary and metaphase II (MII) oocytes. The largest number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) is found in the ovaries of 17NF and in the adipose tissues of peripubertal androgenized models. In contrast, hypothalamus is most affected in PNA and maternal obesity models suggesting fetal programming effects. The Ms4a6e gene, membrane-spanning 4-domains subfamily A member 6E, a DEG identified in the adipose tissue in all mouse models is also differently expressed in adipose tissue of women with PCOS, highlighting a conserved disease function. Our comprehensive transcriptomic profiling of key target tissues involved in PCOS pathology highlights the effects of developmental windows for androgen exposure and maternal obesity, and provides unique resource to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying PCOS pathogenesis.

BMC Med Genomics 2022; 15:149. [PMID: 35787810 PMCID: PMC9254403 DOI: 10.1186/s12920-022-01301-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2021] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder in premenopausal women, whose etiology remains uncertain, although it is known to be highly heterogeneous and genetically complex. PCOS often presents with hyperandrogenism symptoms. The present study aimed to determine whether polymorphisms in the FK-506 binding protein 5 (FKBP5) gene (androgen target gene) are associated with an association for PCOS and hyperandrogenism. Methods This is a case–control study, and association analyses were conducted. A total of 13 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the FKBP5 gene were evaluated in 775 PCOS patients who were diagnosed based on the Rotterdam Standard and 783 healthy Chinese Han women. Associations between FKBP5 SNPs and hormone levels were investigated. These 13 SNPs were genotyped using the Sequenom MassARRAY system, and an association analysis between the phenotype and alleles and genotypes were conducted. Results The genotype frequencies for the rs1360780 and rs3800373 SNPs differed significantly between the PCOS cases and healthy controls (p = 0.025, OR is 1.63 (1.05–2.53) and p = 0.029, OR is 1.59 (1.03–2.45) respectively under co-dominant model). Moreover, the genotype frequencies and genetic model analysis for the SNPs rs1360780, rs9470080, rs9296158, rs1043805 and rs7757037 differed significantly between the hyperandrogenism and non-hyperandrogenism groups of PCOS patients. The TT genotype of rs1360780, the TT genotype of rs9470080, the TT genotype of rs1043805 or the GG genotype of rs7705037 (ORs are 2.13 (1.03–4.39), 1.81 (1.03–3.17), 2.94 (1.32–6.53) and 1.72 (1.04–2.84) respectively) were correlated with androgen level of PCOS patients. Conclusion Our study showed that FKBP5 gene polymorphisms are associated with PCOS generally (rs1360780 and rs3800373) and with the hyperandrogenism subtype specifically (rs1360780, rs9470080, rs9296158, rs1043805 and rs7757037).

Abstract
Background Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) refers to the incidence of two or more abortions before the first half of pregnancy. Oxidative stress has been hypothesized to play a central role in RPL. Objective To investigate the relationship between Q192R and L55M polymorphisms of PON1 as antioxidant enzyme and the risk of RPL. Materials and Methods In this case–control study, 110 women with RPL (case) and 110 healthy fertile women (control) referred to the Research and Clinical Center for Infertility, Shiraz, Iran were enrolled. Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood in all participants. Polymorphisms were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Results Statistical analysis of Q192R polymorphism showed a significant difference for the RR genotype between the case and control group (OR = 11, CI = 1.39–86.87, p = 0.005) but none for the QR and QQ genotypes. No significant association was observed between the R and Q allelic frequency in the RPL participants compared to the control group (p = 0.53). Also, statistical analysis of the L55M polymorphism for MM genotype in the case group compared with the control group showed a significant difference (OR = 3.59, CI = 0.97–13.30, p = 0.042), but none for the LM and LL genotypes. Conclusion The findings showed a significant correlation between the Q192R polymorphisms and the L55M PON1 enzyme and RPL in this study population.

Abstract
Exposure of environmental toxicants such as potentially toxic metals and pesticides have largely been attributed to produce adverse effects on general women's health and to be more precise on the reproductive system. In order to explore exposure of toxicants and metabolizing gene variants as risk factor for polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), literature search was carried out using the databases PubMed, Central Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Science Direct with appropriate keywords upto 6 December 2020. While most of the studies indicate higher serum Cu concentration and lower concentration of Mn as risk factor, studies also report presence of higher pesticide concentration in PCOS women. Genes such as MTHFR, CYPs participate in the metabolism of toxicants and may show different response due to underlying genetic variants. Thus, toxicant exposure are to some extent responsible for the pathogenesis of syndrome through oxidative stress and endocrine disruption, but the susceptibility may vary due to the underlying genetic polymorphism of the exposed population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Etiology of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is attributed to genetic and environmental factors. One environmental factor is oxidative stress. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an antioxidant high-density lipoprotein-associated enzyme encoded by the PON1 gene. The PON1 gene has been implicated in the risk for PCOS, the influence of which appears to come from single nucleotide variants (SNVs) at multiple genetic loci. However, association study reports have been inconsistent which compels a meta-analysis to obtain more precise estimates. METHODS From 12 publications, extracted genotype data were used in two genetic procedures. First, linkage disequilibrium (LD) was used to group eight PON SNVs into three: LD1, LD2 and LD3. Second, frequencies of the variant (var), wild-type (wt) and heterozygous (het) genotypes were used for genetic modeling (allele-genotype for LD1 and standard for LD2 and LD3). Risk associations were expressed in terms of pooled odds ratios (ORs), 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and Pa-values. Evidence was considered strong when significance was high (Pa < 0.0001) and heterogeneity absent (I2 = 0%). Pooled effects were subjected to modifier (power), subgroup (Asian/Caucasian), outlier, sensitivity and publication bias treatments. Multiple comparisons were Bonferroni-corrected. RESULTS This meta-analysis generated 11 significant outcomes, five in LD1, six in LD2 and none in LD3. All six LD2 outcomes did not survive the Bonferroni-correction but two of the five in LD1 did. These two core LD1 findings conferred greater odds of PCOS to the var allele in the highly significant (Pa < 0.0001) overall (OR 1.44, 95% CI 1.24-1.67) and Asian (OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.20-1.65) outcomes. Of these two core outcomes, the Asian effect was homogeneous (I2 = 0%) but not the overall (I2 = 29%). CONCLUSIONS Of the eight PON SNVs examined, two (rs854560 and rs662) were associated with PCOS risk. These 1.4-fold increased risk effects rendered Asians susceptible to PCOS. High statistical power, high significance, zero to low-level heterogeneity, robustness and lack of bias in the core outcomes underpinned the strong evidence for association.

Ther Adv Reprod Health 2020; 14:2633494120906866. [PMID: 32596667 PMCID: PMC7303777 DOI: 10.1177/2633494120906866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2019] [Accepted: 01/20/2020] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Methods: This is a cohort study, conducted at a university-based reproductive medicine
center and private reproductive medicine center that aimed to evaluate
granulosa cumulus cell gene expression in the insulin signaling pathway in
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) patients undergoing in vitro fertilization
(IVF) treatment and to compare the cumulus gene expression between normal
weight and obese women without clinical insulin resistance. Fifteen PCOS
patients, nine normal weight patients and six obese patients presenting
normal HOMA IR (Homeostasis Model Assessment–Insulin Resistance),
participated. Patients underwent oocyte retrieval for IVF and after the
procedure, granulosa cumulus cells were removed from the oocytes for RNA
extraction. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) array analysis of
84 genes from insulin signaling pathway was conducted. The results were
expressed as fold up- or fold down-expression in obese patients compared
with normal weight patients. Any fold change ⩾3 or ⩽3 and any
p ⩽ 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: There were 10 genes that were overexpressed in obese compared with normal
weight women, BCL2L1, BRAF, CBL, DOK1, FBP1, FRS2, MTOR, PCK2, RPS6KA1, and
SORBS1, that had a fold change ⩾3 and p ⩽ 0.05. Discussion: In the obese group, the overexpressed genes are mainly responsible for the
proliferation and differentiation of cumulus cells during oocyte maturation,
insulin resistance, apoptosis regulation, and glucose metabolism during
early embryogenesis, suggesting that in the follicular environment, insulin
resistance is present even in the absence of clinical signs. Conclusion: Together, our findings and the related literature suggest that those
alterations may be associated with the worse prognosis of follicular
development and oocyte maturation observed in PCOS obese women.

Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder predominantly affecting women of reproductive age. Clinical manifestations are diverse including hyperandrogenism, anovulation, infertility and increased risk of metabolic diseases besides psychosocial dysfunction. This review provides information on the problem of PCOS in India, its pathophysiology, genetics and an overview of current management options to instigate further research in this field. Prevalence of PCOS in India ranges from 3.7 to 22.5 per cent depending on the population studied and the criteria used for diagnosis. Abnormalities in leptin-adiponectin (adipocyte biology), oxidative stress and autoimmunity are among the mechanisms studied regarding pathogenesis of PCOS. Many candidate gene studies have shown associations with PCOS in various studies. Studies have consistently demonstrated the relationship between the well-known manifestation of hyperandrogenism among Indian PCOS women and the metabolic morbidities including insulin resistance, glucose intolerance and cardiovascular risk. Management of individual components of PCOS can be achieved by medications or surgical methods, though further clarification regarding pathogenesis of PCOS is needed to sharpen our therapeutic armamentarium.

Abstract
PURPOSE Evidences showed that paraoxonase 1 (PON1) gene polymorphism has an impact on women's susceptibility to polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) by influencing the expression and activity of PON1. However, the effects of three PON1 polymorphisms (- 108 C>T, L55M and Q192R) on the incidence of PCOS have generated inconsistent results. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the association between PON1 polymorphisms and PCOS risk. METHODS All eligible trials were identified via systematic searches of multiple literature databases. Outcome data were synthesized by using crude odds ratio with 95% confidence interval. Heterogeneity was assessed with the I2 test. Publication bias and subgroup analyses were also performed. RESULTS A total of 2449 cases and 1977 controls from nine studies were selected for analysis. The pooled results showed a significant association between PCOS risk and PON1 - 108 C/T polymorphism in the following genetic models [allelic, 0.72 (0.56-0.92); homozygote, 0.51 (0.32-0.82); heterozygote, 0.44 (0.25-0.78); and dominant 0.47 (0.29-0.77)]. For the PON1 192 Q/R polymorphism, a significant relationship was found in the allelic model [0.62 (0.41-0.93)] and recessive model [0.61 (0.37-0.98)]. PCOS risk was also linked to PON1 L55M polymorphism in the heterozygote model [0.62 (0.39-0.98)] and dominant model [0.63 (0.41-0.96)]. CONCLUSIONS Our study has shown that PON1 - 108 C/T polymorphism might be associated with increased risk of PCOS under the allelic, homozygote, heterozygote, and dominant models. Additionally, PON1 192 Q/R and L55M polymorphisms were significantly related only in the allelic and recessive model, and in the heterozygote and dominant model, respectively.

Abstract
Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is a glycoprotein which regulates bioavailability of sex steroid hormones. Interest in SHBG has escalated in recent years because of its inverse association with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes type II. This meta-analysis was performed to examine the associations of SHBG with PCOS and to correlate serum SHBG levels with various PCOS associated endocrine and metabolic dysregulation as well as to determine the effects of various therapeutic agents on serum SHBG levels in PCOS patients in order to assess the true accuracy of SHBG in the prediction of PCOS. A literature search was performed using Pub-Med, Science direct, google scholar, EMBASE, and Cochrane library. A total of 675 relevant records were identified, of which 62 articles were included. Meta-analysis using a random-effects model was performed using STATA version 13 to calculate standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (95 % CIs). SHBG levels in controls were significantly higher than that of PCOS patients (SMD= -0.83, 95%CI = -1.01, -0.64), with significant heterogeneity across studies (I2= 93.9% and p=0.000). Our results suggest that the lower serum SHBG levels are associated with the risk of PCOS. SHBG may also play an important role in various metabolic disturbances in PCOS patients. Therapeutic interventions improved SHBG levels in PCOS women which further reduced PCOS associated complications. Therefore, SHBG levels may prove to be a useful biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS. Systematic review registration: PROSPERO CRD42017057972 Abbreviations: PCOS: polycystic ovary syndrome; SHBG: sex hormone-binding globulin.

Association of single-nucleotide polymorphisms rs2197076 and rs2241883 of FABP1 gene with polycystic ovary syndrome. J Assist Reprod Genet 2015; 33:75-83. [PMID: 26650609 DOI: 10.1007/s10815-015-0626-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2015] [Accepted: 11/22/2015] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2197076 and rs2241883 in fatty acid-binding protein 1 (FABP1) gene and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS The two alleles rs2197076 and rs2241883 in FABP1 gene in 221 PCOS women and 198 normal women were amplified and sequenced. Allele frequency comparison was performed between the PCOS and control groups, and genotype-phenotype correlation analysis was performed using dominant and recessive models to assess the association of FABP1 and the main features of PCOS. RESULTS Allele frequency analyses showed a strong association of SNPs rs2197076 and rs2241883 of FABP1 gene with PCOS (P < 0.001). The additive, dominant, and recessive genotype model analyses further supported this association even after adjusting for age and body mass index (BMI). The minor allele frequency (MAF) of rs2241883 in obese PCOS women was less than that in obese control women. Further genotype-phenotype correlation analysis showed that SNP rs2197076 had a stronger association with the main features of PCOS than SNP rs2241883. CONCLUSION In the association of SNPs in FABP1 gene with PCOS, rs2197076 was more closely associated with its main features than rs2241883 and seemed to play a more important role in the pathogenesis of PCOS.
