摘要：
To assess the role of insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, and IRS-2 genes in insulin resistance, we explored the genomic DNA in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and a variable degree (mean +/- SE) of insulin resistance (homeostasis model assessment index for insulin resistance [HOMA(IR)] 3.2 +/- 0.6, n = 53;control subjects 1.56 +/- 0.34, n = 102) using direct sequencing. Whereas no novel mutations were found in these genes, gene-dosage effects were found on fasting insulin for the Gly972Arg IRS-1 variant and on 2-h plasma glucose for the GIy1057Asp IRS-2 variant. The Gly972Arg IRS-1 variant was more prevalent in insulin-resistant patients compared with non-insulin-resistant individuals or control subjects (39.3 vs. 4.0 and 16.6%, P < 0.0031, respectively). A multivariate model that included BMI as a variable revealed significant effects of the Gly1057Asp IRS-2 variant on insulin resistance (P < 0.016, odds ratio [OR] 7.2, 95% CI 1.29-43.3). HOMA(IR) was higher in carriers of both IRS variants than in those with IRS-2 mutations only or those with wild-type variants (6.2 +/- 2.3, 2.8 +/- 0.5, and 1.8 +/- 0.2, respectively;P < 0.01), and it was significantly associated with this genotype (P < 0.0085, OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.09-2.99). We conclude that polymorphic alleles of both IRS-1 and IRS-2, alone or in combination, may have a functional impact on the insulin-resistant component of PCOS.
