Abstract

The K121Q polymorphism of the plasma cell membrane glycoprotein 1 gene was significantly associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) susceptibility, the pooled genotype distribution (K121K vs. 121Q allele) having an odds ratio of 1.90 (95% confidence interval 1.11-3.26). This suggests that impaired insulin signaling is of etiologic importance in PCOS.
