Abstract
Conclusion(s): This study highlights a shift of the follicular insulin signal protein from IRS-1 to IRS-2 in insulin-resistant states and suggests an association between this change and ovarian abnormality in PCOS and gestational diabetes mellitus. (Fertil Steril(R) 2000;74:564-72. (C) 2000 by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.).
