Long non-coding RNA H19 is associated with polycystic ovary syndrome in Chinese women: a preliminary study.

In conclusion, we demonstrate the first evidence to indicate that lncRNA H19 is associated with PCOS, suggesting that elevated lncRNA H19 levels are a risk factor for PCOS. For susceptible individuals, lncRNA H19 may represent a useful biomarker of the early stages of endocrine and metabolic disorders in PCOS. PMID: 30982795 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
