The experimental PCOS animals showed insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia and hyperandrogenism as well as oxidative stress and elevated inflammatory biomarkers (NF-kB/TNF-/IL-6) as well as a significant decrease in triglycerides, total cholesterol, free fatty acids, GSH and G6PD in the adipose tissue of PCOS animals. Here, TNF is linked to hyperandrogenism.
