Özet
This study showed that there is a positive correlation between serum Visceral Adipose tissue derived Serine Protease Inhibitor (VASPIN) level and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In previous studies, this relation was attributed to the generalization of higher amount of adipose tissue in patients with PCOS. However, we detected that VASPIN is significantly high in patients with PCOS regardless of BMI. Besides, the metabolic parameters such as fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, triglycerides and LDL-C levels were also increased in lean women with PCOS.
