Plasma omentin-1 levels are reduced in non-obese women with normal glucose tolerance and polycystic ovary syndrome

Abstract

Plasma levels of omentin-1 were reduced in non-obese women with PCOS and NGT. Postprandial hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia contributed more to lower omentin-1 levels than did fasting values in the setting of PCOS. Increased androgen levels contributed to decreased omentin-1 levels in women with PCOS.
