Linkage and association of variants in the dopamine receptor 2 gene (DRD2) with polycystic ovary syndrome
Journal of ovarian research ·doi:10.1186/s13048-023-01205-2

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a disorder with a foundation of neuroendocrine dysfunction, characterized by increased gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulsatility, which is antagonized by dopamine. The dopamine receptor 2 (DRD2)…

21-Hydroxylase-derived steroids in follicles of nonobese women undergoing ovarian stimulation for in vitro fertilization (IVF) positively correlate with lipid content of luteinized granulosa cells (LGCs) as a source of cholesterol for steroid synthesis
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jc.2013-3204

CONTEXT: Mineralocorticoid synthesis by the nonhuman primate periovulatory follicle enhances luteinization. Whether a similar event occurs in women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) is unknown. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study w…
