Key result
Women with PCOS exhibit higher pro-inflammatory lipids and inadequate pro-resolving mediators versus healthy women.
Why the study?
This study aimed to establish lipid mediator profiles of PCOS patients compared to healthy women to identify differences in their resolutive and pro-inflammatory lipid parameters.
Are there differences in resolutive and pro-inflammatory lipid parameters between PCOS patients and healthy women?
Are there differences in resolutive and pro-inflammatory lipid parameters between PCOS patients and healthy women?
PCOS is associated with higher levels of pro-inflammatory lipid parameters compared to healthy women, suggesting a failure to produce adequate specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators.
The present study aimed to establish lipid mediator profiles of PCOS patients compared to healthy women to identify differences in their resolutive and pro-inflammatory lipid parameters. Main measures: Pro-inflammatory lipid mediators and their precursor AA; SPMs, their precursors. The level of pro-inflammatory parameters was significantly higher in PCOS-affected women.
