This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing theresources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject andinvestigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source,and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous syndrome of unexplained chronic hyperandrogenism. It appears to arise as a complex trait with contributions from both heritable and non-heritable factors. This study is to test the hypothesis that activating variants of 17 -HSD5 contribute to hyperandrogenism in women and that a specific phenotype is associated with these variants. This project compares hyperandrogenic children and adults with stage- and weight-matched healthy controls. Outcome measure include ovarian and adrenal function test, glucose tolerance test, and pelvic ultrasound parameters.
