Insulin resistance in the skeletal muscle of women with PCOS involves intrinsic and acquired defects in insulin signaling
Abstract
Insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is due to a postbinding defect in signaling that persists in cultured skin fibroblasts and is associated with constitutive serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor (IR). Cultured skeletal muscle from obese women with PCOS and age- and body mass index-matched control women ( n = 10/group) was studied to determine whether signaling defects observed in this tissue in vivo were intrinsic or acquired. Basal and insulin-stimulated glucose transport and GLUT1 abundance were significantly increased in cultured myotubes from women with PCOS. Neither IR β-subunit abundance and tyrosine autophosphorylation nor insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1-associated phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity differed in the two groups. However, IRS-1 protein abundance was significantly increased in PCOS, resulting in significantly decreased PI 3-kinase activity when normalized for IRS-1. Phosphorylation of IRS-1 on Ser 312 , a key regulatory site, was significantly increased in PCOS, which may have contributed to this signaling defect. Insulin signaling via IRS-2 was also decreased in myotubes from women with PCOS. In summary, decreased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in PCOS skeletal muscle in vivo is an acquired defect. Nevertheless, there are intrinsic abnormalities in glucose transport and insulin signaling in myotubes from affected women, including increased phosphorylation of IRS-1 Ser 312 , that may confer increased susceptibility to insulin resistance-inducing factors in the in vivo environment. These abnormalities differ from those reported in other insulin resistant states consistent with the hypothesis that PCOS is a genetically unique disorder conferring an increased risk for type 2 diabetes.

Other abnormalities in downstream pathways, such as serine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrates, inhibit binding with PI3K and prevent propagation of the signal downstream.
“However, other abnormalities have been observed also in downstream pathways, such as the serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor substrates which inhibits its binding with PI3K and prevents the propagation of the signal downstream [26, 27].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
