Analyzes immune function in follicular fluid and its relationship to ovulation in women with PCOS, suggesting significant dysregulation.

This research aims to investigate the immune environment of ovarian follicles in patients with PCOS during ovulation induction.
Utilized single-cell RNA and surface protein analysis
Compared immune profiles in peripheral blood and follicular fluid
Analyzed samples from patients undergoing in vitro fertilization
PCOS follicles showed distinct immune features compared to control follicles
Healthy control ovaries had effective immune signaling during ovulation
PCOS ovarian follicles displayed chronic low-grade inflammation and fibrotic characteristics

Wegrzynowicz et al. (2026) studied this question.
