Abstract:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common reproductive and endocrine diseases in women of childbearing age. Macrophages are associated with the pathogenesis, risk factors and important clinical features of PCOS. Low-grade chronic inflammation mediated by macrophages has been proved to be a key link in the occurrence and development of PCOS. This article reviewed the research progress of macrophages in PCOS.
