Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as total antioxidant capacity ( TAC ) within follicle fluid and body mass index ( BMI ) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods All patients enrolled in this study were infertile women receiving in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) treatment.55 PCOS patients were divided into over-weight group ( n =23 ) and non-over-weight group ( n =32 ).Another 55 age-matched non-PCOS women were also divided into control group ( n =30) and overweight group ( n =25 ).Plasma sex hormone,triglycerides,and total cholesterol were determined.On oocyte retrieval day after ovarian stimulation,ROS and TAC in follicular fluid were assayed.Results Subjects in over-weight and PCOS over-weight groups had higher triglycerides than those in control and PCOS non-over-weight groups [ ( 1.9 ±1.1,1.7 ± 0.9,1.0 ± 0.5,1.2 ± 0.7 ) mmol/L,respectively,all P＜0.05],so did total cholesterol [ ( 4.8 ± 1.2,5.2 ± 1.1,4.0 ± 0.6) mmol/L,respectively,all P＜0.05].In PCOS over-weight group,ROS and ROS/TAC within follicular fluid were ( 35.4 ± 6.7 ) RLU/S and 39.8 ± 22.0,both were higher than those in the other 3 groups ( all P＜0.05).TAC [ (0.8 ± 0.5 ) Mm] was lower in PCOS over-weight group than that among the other 3 groups( all P＜0.05 ).ROS/TAC was higher in PCOS non-over-weight group than that of control group ( 26.5 ± 14.5 vs 14.2 ± 12.5,P＜0.05 ).Univariate analysis showed that both ROS and ROS/TAC within follicular fluid in PCOS patients were positively correlated with BMI ( r =0.34 and r =0.32,both P＜0.05 ).Conclusion Abnormal oxidative stress exists in follicular fluid of PCOS patients,and the oxidative stress parameters show positive correlation with BMI.
