In Fig. 4 D, the concentrations of active caspase-9 (7.11 ± 1.31 ng/mL vs. 22.39 ± 2.79 ng/mL) and active caspase-3 (5.90 ± 1.42 ng/mL vs. 15.88 ± 2.11 ng/mL) were significantly lower in GCs of the PCOS-GH group compared with those in the PCOS-C group (P < 0.05). The gene discussed is CASP3; the disease is polycystic ovary syndrome.
