RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the diagnostic value of urine luteinizing hormone (ULH) after the triptorelin stimulation test detected by immunochemiluminometric assay (ICMA) in girls with central precocious puberty (CPP). METHODS: The girls with precocious puberty were included. The triptorelin stimulation test at 8:30 a.m. was performed. Two consecutive 12-hour urine samples were collected after the test, defined as the first 12-hour and second 12-hour urine, respectively. ICMA measured ULH. Urine creatinine (Cr) concentration was measured. CPP and peripheral precocious puberty (PPP) were diagnosed by the same pediatric endocrinologist based on clinical symptoms, signs, and progression of clinical development. RESULTS: A total of 97 cases (CPP n=69; PPP n=28) were included, with 12 cases not meeting the receiver operating characteristic analysis criteria. The first and second 12-hour ULH/Cr in the CPP group were higher than those in the PPP group. When the first 12-hour ULH/Cr was≥287.252 IU/mol, the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing CPP were 87.3% and 90.9%, respectively. When the second 12-hour ULH/Cr was≥152.769 IU/mol, the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing CPP were 92.1% and 90.9%, respectively. The area under the curve of the first and second 12-hour ULH/Cr were 0.933 and 0.954, respectively. CONCLUSION: The ULH detection method after the triptorelin stimulation test has clinical significance for diagnosing CPP in girls. When blood sampling compliance in girls with precocious puberty is poor, the first 12-hour ULH/Cr≥288 IU/mol (or second 12-hour≥153 IU/mol) after the triptorelin stimulation test can serve as a laboratory indicator for diagnosis of CPP.

RESUMEN

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism and related symptoms in women of reproductive age. Emerging evidence suggests that chronic low-grade inflammation plays a significant role in the development of PCOS. The gut microbiota, a complex bacterial ecosystem, has been extensively studied for various diseases, including PCOS, while the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. This review comprehensively summarizes the changes in gut microbiota and metabolites observed in PCOS and their potential association with the condition. Additionally, we discuss the role of abnormal nuclear factor κB signaling in the pathogenesis of PCOS. These findings offer valuable insights into the mechanisms of PCOS and may pave the way for the development of control and therapeutic strategies for this condition in clinical practice. By bridging the gap between mouse models and clinical patients, this review contributes to a better understanding of the interplay between gut microbiota and inflammation in PCOS, thus paving new ways for future investigations and interventions.

RESUMEN

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex, multifactor disorder in women of reproductive age worldwide. Although RNA editing may contribute to a variety of diseases, its role in PCOS remains unclear. Methods: A discovery RNA-Seq dataset was obtained from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus database of granulosa cells from women with PCOS and women without PCOS (controls). A validation RNA-Seq dataset downloaded from the European Nucleotide Archive Databank was used to validate differential editing. Transcriptome-wide investigation was conducted to analyze adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing in PCOS and control samples. Results: A total of 17,395 high-confidence A-to-I RNA editing sites were identified in 3,644 genes in all GC samples. As for differential RNA editing, there were 545 differential RNA editing (DRE) sites in 259 genes with Nucleoporin 43 (NUP43), Retinoblastoma Binding Protein 4 (RBBP4), and leckstrin homology-like domain family A member 1 (PHLDA) showing the most significant three 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) editing. Furthermore, we identified 20 DRE sites that demonstrated a significant correlation between editing levels and gene expression levels. Notably, MIR193b-365a Host Gene (MIR193BHG) and Hook Microtubule Tethering Protein 3 (HOOK3) exhibited significant differential expression between PCOS and controls. Functional enrichment analysis showed that these 259 differentially edited genes were mainly related to apoptosis and necroptosis pathways. RNA binding protein (RBP) analysis revealed that RNA Binding Motif Protein 45 (RBM45) was predicted as the most frequent RBP binding with RNA editing sites. Additionally, we observed a correlation between editing levels of differential editing sites and the expression level of the RNA editing enzyme Adenosine Deaminase RNA Specific B1 (ADARB1). Moreover, the existence of 55 common differentially edited genes and nine differential editing sites were confirmed in the validation dataset. Conclusion: Our current study highlighted the potential role of RNA editing in the pathophysiology of PCOS as an epigenetic process. These findings could provide valuable insights into the development of more targeted and effective treatment options for PCOS.
