Evidence of proatherogenic inflammation in polycystic ovary syndrome.
Metabolism. 2009 Jul; 58(7):954-62.M

Abstract

Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have chronic low-level inflammation that can increase the risk of atherogenesis. We measured circulating proatherogenic inflammatory mediators in women with PCOS (8 lean: body mass index, 18-25 kg/m(2); 8 obese: body mass index, 30-40 kg/m(2)) and weight-matched controls (8 lean, 8 obese). Blood samples were obtained fasting and 2 hours after glucose ingestion to measure interleukin-6 (IL-6), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), C-reactive protein (CRP), matrix metalloproteinase-2, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and activated nuclear factor kappaB in mononuclear cells. Truncal fat was determined by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Fasting MCP-1 levels were elevated in lean women with PCOS compared with lean controls (159.9 +/- 14.1 vs 121.2 +/- 5.4 pg/mL, P < .02). Hyperglycemia failed to suppress matrix metalloproteinase-2 in lean women with PCOS compared with lean controls (1.7 +/- 1.2 vs -4.8 +/- 1.6 pg/mL, P < .002). Among women with PCOS, obese individuals exhibited higher fasting sICAM-1 (16.1 +/- 0.8 vs 10.5 +/- 1.0 ng/mL, P < .03) and PAI-1 (6.1 +/- 0.7 vs 3.4 +/- 0.8 ng/mL, P < .03) levels. Trend analysis revealed higher (P < .005) IL-6, sICAM-1, CRP, PAI-1, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, triglycerides, fasting insulin, and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index in women with PCOS compared with weight-matched controls, and the highest levels in the obese regardless of PCOS status. Fasting MCP-1 levels correlated with activated nuclear factor kappaB during hyperglycemia (P < .05) and androstenedione (P < .004). Truncal fat correlated with fasting IL-6 (P < .004), sICAM-1 (P < .006), CRP (P < .0009), and PAI-1 (P < .02). We conclude that both PCOS and obesity contribute to a proatherogenic state; but in women with PCOS, abdominal adiposity and hyperandrogenism may exacerbate the risk of atherosclerosis.
