Long non-coding RNATUG1and its molecular mechanisms in polycystic ovary syndrome

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) causes anovulatory infertility in women of reproductive age, but etiopathogenesis of PCOS remains undetermined. Taurine up-regulated 1 (TUG1), an evolutionarily conserved long non-coding RNA, performs various biological functions; however, the role of TUG1 in PCOS remains unclear. Herein, TUG1 expression was assayed in granulosa cells (GCs) of 100 patients with PCOS and 100 control participants. Receiver...
