Abstract
The impact of diet on inflammation and oxidative stress (OS) in girls with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is unknown. Therefore, our study aimed to investigate, in PCOS girls, whether certain macronutrient intakes can be associated with these disturbances. For this purpose, 59 PCOS participants (aged 14-18 years) were recruited to this study and divided into two subgroups: overweight/obese-Ov/Ob group (n = 22) and normal weight-N group (n = 37). Nutrition was assessed using a 3-day food record. The studied markers were total antioxidant capacity (TAC), malondialdehyde (MDA), C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and interleukins 1 and 6 (IL-1 and IL-6). We found plant protein intake inversely correlated with IL-6 (p = 0.007; r = -0.557), TNF-α (p = 0.006; r = -0.564), MDA (p = 0.01; r = -0.539) in the Ov/Ob group and with TAC (p = 0.021; r = -0.38) in the N group. Inverse correlations in the Ov/Ob group were observed between protein intake and IL-6 (p = 0.031; r = -0.461), TNF- α (p = 0.043; r = -0.435); carbohydrates and IL-6 (p = 0.037; r = -0.448), MDA (p = 0.045; r = -0.431); fiber and IL-6 (p = 0.025; r = -0.475). A positive relationship between cholesterol intake and CRP concentration (p = 0.038; r = 0.342) was also found in the N group. These findings revealed that inflammation and OS are increased in Ov/Ob girls with decreased plant protein intake and low carbohydrates in the diet. Moreover, inflammation may be increased by cholesterol intake in slim PCOS girls. On the other hand, decreased intake of fiber and total protein intake increased inflammation.

Activation of Systemic Inflammation and Oxidative Stress in Adolescent Girls with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Combination with Metabolic Disorders and Excessive Body Weight. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9051399. [PMID: 32397375 PMCID: PMC7291245 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9051399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2020] [Revised: 05/01/2020] [Accepted: 05/05/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Relevance: Mitochondrial dysfunction and systemic inflammation are believed to play pivotal role in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and related complications of metabolic disorders in adult patients. Though such researches are limited or almost absent in adolescents. The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of mitochondrial dysfunction and systemic inflammation on PCOS pathogenesis during adolescence with regard to body mass index and insulin resistance. Design: a case-control study. Methods: The study included 95 adolescent girls (15 to 17 years old inclusive) diagnosed with PCOS based on the Rotterdam criteria. The control group consisted of 30 healthy girls of the same age with a regular menstrual cycle. All participants were subjected to a full clinical and instrumental examination, as well as an assessment of the levels of leptin, C-reactive protein (CRP), and malondialdehyde (MDA) as oxidative stress marker. Serum levels of IL-6, IL-10, IL-18, TNF-α, and plasma concentrations of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), sFas, and sFasL were determined. Patients with PCOS were divided into groups according to the presence of metabolic disorders (MD) (impaired glucose tolerance and/or over insulin resistance) and normal weight or excessive weight (NW or OW). Results: Patients with PCOS of NW in the absence of metabolic disorders (MD−/NW) had a lower concentration of MDA and a higher level of IL-10 compared to healthy girls (p < 0.05). The group (MD−/NW) was characterized with lower levels of CRP, leptin, MDA, and higher levels of sFasL, when compared to OW patients with PCOS in the absence of metabolic disorders (MD−/OW) (p < 0.05). Overweight adolescent girls with PCOS and metabolic disorders (MD+/OW) showed higher CRP, leptin, and a two-fold increase in IL-6 and IL-18 concentrations compared to the control group of healthy girls (p < 0.05 for all parameters). The group (MD+/OW) was also characterized with higher levels of CRP, leptin, MDA, IL-18, MIF (p < 0.05), when compared to overweight patients with PCOS in the absence of metabolic disorders (MD−/NW). In comparison with the MD−/OW group, the obese insulin resistant girls with PCOS (MD+/OW) had a highera level of IL-18 (p < 0.05). Moreover, the MD+/OW girls demonstrated a significant increase in CRP, MDA and IL-18 levels when compared to the MD+/NW group (p < 0.05). OW girls with PCOS without MD (MD−/OW) had lower concentrations of sFasL compared to healthy girls (p < 0.05), and higher levels of MDA compared to MD+/NW (p < 0.05). Adolescent girls of NW with PCOS and with MD (MD+/NW) had lower levels of MDA compared to the control group of healthy girls (p < 0.05). These data are confirmed by a correlation analysis and two-factor ANOVA test. Conclusions: Lean girls with PCOS demonstrate the protective mechanism of decrease in oxidative stress mediated by the activation of antioxidant defense, reduction of lipid peroxidation and systemic inflammation. Excessive weight and metabolic disorders in adolescents with PCOS are the most significant factors in reducing the capacity of antioxidant systems, activation of oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and systemic inflammation.

Abstract
AIMS Explore the effects of dodder total flavone on polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) rat models induced by dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) combined human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). METHODS Except the blank group, the rest of the rats were injected with DHEA 6 mg/100 g on the back of the neck and 1.5 IU HCG each day, for 21 consecutive days. On the 16th day of modeling, vaginal smear was performed to select the model rats, which were randomly divided into model group, dacin-35 group, large, middle and small dose dodder total flavonoids groups, and given the medicine for three weeks. At the end of the last administration, take samples, so as to calculate the ovaries and uterus indexes, measure serum LH/FSH ratio, P, PRL and INS levels, fixed the uterus and pancreas in 10% formalin solution and stained with HE to observe the morphological changes of the organs. And measure the expression of TNF-α and IGF-l proteins in ovaries by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Compared with the blank group, ovarian and uterine indexes, serum LH/FSH ratio, serum PRL and INS levels, ovary TNF-α and IGF-l protein expression were significantly increased, and significant pathological changes were observed in the uterine and pancreatic tissues in model group (P < 0.01). While the serum P level decreased significantly (P < 0.01), Compared with the model group, the ovarian and uterine indexes, serum LH/FSH ratio, serum P, PRL and INS levels, ovary TNF-α protein expression were significantly decreased in large, middle and small dose dodder total flavonoids groups (P < 0.01); The expression of IGF-1 protein was decreased and uterus pathological changes were improved in different extents (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05), pancreas pathological changes were improved significantly (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION PCOS rat models was successfully replicated. Dodder total flavone can protect PCOS rats induced by DHEA combined HCG by different action pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age. The evidence in support of low-grade inflammation in PCOS as an etiology is emerging. Inflammation is likely to be associated with other prominent aspects of PCOS including insulin resistance (IR) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Interleukin-18 (IL-18) is considered as a strong marker of inflammation. OBJECTIVES Evaluation of the relation between serum IL-18 and atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) risk in Egyptian lean females with PCO. METHODS This study included control group of healthy lean normally menstruating females, lean PCOS group (BMI < 25 kg/m2), and obese PCOS group (BMI > 25 kg/m2) presented with infertility and diagnosed according to Rotterdam criteria. Measurements of serum lipid profile, IR, and IL-18 were done. RESULTS Lipid accumulation product (LAP), IR and ASCVD risk were significantly higher in PCOS patients (lean and obese) compared to controls and in obese compared to lean. Serum IL-18 was significantly higher in the PCOV groups compared to the controls and correlated directly with LAP, IR and ASCVD risk. CONCLUSION IL-18 is elevated in PCOS patients even in lean ones and is correlated with IR and ASCVD risk.

Abstract
The objective of the study is to assess the TNF-α levels in PCOS patients and healthy controls. A comprehensive electronic search in Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library database was conducted up to July 2016. Random-effects model was used to estimate the standardized mean differences (SMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Twenty-nine studies with a total of 1960 participants (1046 PCOS patients and 914 controls) were included in this meta-analysis. The TNF-α levels in PCOS patients were significantly higher than those in controls (random-effects, SMD = 0.60, 95% CI = 0.28-0.92, P<0.001). With regard to the subgroup analyses stratified by ethnicity, study quality, methods, and BMI, significantly high TNF-α levels were found in patients with PCOS in almost all of these subgroups. In the subgroup stratified by HOMA-IR ratio and T ratio, significant differences were only observed in the subgroups with HOMA-IR ratio of >1.72(SMD = 0.967, 95% CI = 0.103-1.831, P = 0.028, I2 = 93.5%) and T ratio>2.10 (SMD = 1.420, 95% CI = 0.429-2.411, P = 0.005, I2 = 96.1%). By meta-regression it was suggested that ethnicity might contribute little to the heterogeneity between the included studies. Through cumulative meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis it was supposed that the higher TNF-α levels of PCOS patients compared to healthy controls was stable and reliable. This meta-analysis suggests that the circulating TNF-α levels in women with PCOS are significantly higher than those in healthy controls. It may be involved in promoting insulin resistance and androgen excess of PCOS.

Abstract
Background The objective of the present study was to examine the associations between various anthropometric measures and metabolic syndrome and hearing impairment in Asian women. Methods We identified 11,755 women who underwent voluntary routine health checkups at Yeungnam University Hospital between June 2008 and April 2014. Among these patients, 2,485 participants were <40 years old, and 1,072 participants lacked information regarding their laboratory findings or hearing and were therefore excluded. In total 8,198 participants were recruited into our study. Results The AUROC value for metabolic syndrome was 0.790 for the waist to hip ratio (WHR). The cutoff value was 0.939. The sensitivity and specificity for predicting metabolic syndrome were 72.7% and 71.7%, respectively. The AUROC value for hearing loss was 0.758 for WHR. The cutoff value was 0.932. The sensitivity and specificity for predicting hearing loss were 65.8% and 73.4%, respectively. The WHR had the highest AUC and was the best predictor of metabolic syndrome and hearing loss. Univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses showed that WHR levels were positively associated with four hearing thresholds including averaged hearing threshold and low, middle, and high frequency thresholds. In addition, multivariate logistic analysis revealed that those with a high WHR had a 1.347–fold increased risk of hearing loss compared with the participants with a low WHR. Conclusion Our results demonstrated that WHR may be a surrogate marker for predicting the risk of hearing loss resulting from metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the rate of insulin resistance (IR) and the relationship between IR and high molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin in normal weight adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and a maternal history of PCOS. DESIGN Case-controlled study. SETTING Adolescent clinic of a teaching and research hospital. PATIENT(S) Forty normal weight adolescents with PCOS and a maternal history of PCOS and 40 normo-ovulatory age- and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls. INTERVENTION(S) A 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed for each participant. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Homeostasis model assessment of IR and HMW adiponectin. RESULT(S) There were no statistically significant differences between the PCOS and control groups in terms of fasting glucose, fasting insulin, and lipid parameters. Although total and free T were significantly higher, HMW adiponectin levels were significantly lower in the PCOS group compared with the control group. When the PCOS group was compared according to the IR, the HMW adiponectin level was significantly lower in the adolescents with PCOS and IR. The adolescents with PCOS and biochemical hyperandrogenemia had significantly lower HMW adiponectin levels and significantly higher homeostasis model assessment of IR score compared with the adolescents with PCOS and normoandrogenemia. CONCLUSION(S) The adolescents with PCOS had a significantly increased rate of IR without clinical findings of metabolic disorders or obesity. The HMW adiponectin levels were negatively correlated with IR.
