Abstract:Study question
How does the androgen receptor splice variant (ARSV) contribute to insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients?
Summary answer
ARSV inhibited the intracellular signaling pathway of insulin, resulting in decreased glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4) translocation, impaired cellular glucose uptake, and insulin resistance.
