https://www.selleckchem.com/mTOR.html Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is described as a low-grade chronic inflammatory state. However, there are limited studies on the specific endometrial immune status of PCOS patients. Whether this endometrial immune cell pattern is intrinsic to PCOS or the consequence of PCOS-associated obesity is a subject of debate. This study retrospectively included one hundred women diagnosed with PCOS and ninety-five normal fertile controls, which further divided into four groups (normoweight PCOS; overweight PCOS; normoweight control; overweight control) based on body mass index. The percentages of endometrial CD68+ macrophages (1.97 % vs. 1.17 %; P less then 0.001), CD163+ M2 macrophages (2.30 % vs. 1.83 %; P = 0.001), CD1a+ iDCs (0.044 % vs. 0.029 %; P = 0.002), CD83+ mDCs (1.72 % vs. 1.07 %; P less then 0.001) and CD8+ T cells (2.82 % vs. 1.95 %; P less then 0.001) were significantly higher in normoweight PCOS women than normoweight controls. The percentage of CD68+ macrophages (2.09 % vs. 1.15 %; P less then 0.001) was significantly higher in overweight PCOS women compared with overweight controls. In multivariant linear regression analysis, participants' PCOS status was the main predictors of endometrial CD68+ macrophages, CD163+ M2 macrophages, CD1a+ iDCs, CD83+ mDCs and CD8+ T cells in the whole study population. Additionally, in PCOS group, positive correlations were found between endometrial CD56+ NK, CD163+ M2 macrophages and QUICKI, indicating there was an association between endometrial immune cells and insulin resistance in PCOS women. Our study suggests that women with PCOS have altered endometrial immune cells, which may reflect a state of chronic low grade inflammation. The chronic inflammation, independent of obesity, may help understand the pathophysiologic mechanisms of intrinsic PCOS.Chinese steamed breads (CSB) and noodles are staple foods for many people.
