Abstract:Introduction
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine disorder. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a risk factor for PCOS. Corin protein has an essential role in ANP synthesis. This study aimed to evaluate corin as a sensitive biomarker for PCOS.
Materials and Methods
A case-control study was conducted with 70 PCOS patients and 70 healthy females. Plasma Corin levels were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
