Streszczenia
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifactorial disorder influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. The aim of this study was to evaluate associations between selected polymorphisms (CYP19, INSR, FTO, MC4R) and the clinical manifestations of PCOS in a Polish female population. Methods: A total of 50 women (25 with PCOS and 25 healthy controls) were included. Genetic variants were identified using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)-based methods. The frequencies of genotypes and alleles were compared between groups. Clinical symptoms such as irregular menstruation, hirsutism, acne, androgenetic alopecia, and overweight were assessed in relation to genotype. Results: No significant differences were found in genotype distributions for CYP19, FTO, INSR, or MC4R between PCOS and control groups. The MC4R polymorphisms showed deviations from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, possibly reflecting population-specific effects. Conclusions: Although most analyzed variants were not directly associated with PCOS in this cohort, the observed link between INSR rs1799817 and acne suggests a role in androgen-related symptoms. These findings contribute new insights to the genetic background of PCOS in Polish women and support the need for further studies combining genetic and phenotypic data in diverse populations.
