The incretin hormone response did not differ between subjects with and without PCOS. Subgroup analysis showed lower GIP (area under the curve [AUC]) levels in obese women with PCOS compared with obese control women (P < .05) and compared with lean women with PCOS (P < .05). Metformin increased GIP (AUC) and GLP-1 (AUC) in lean women with PCOS (P < .05), and a similar trend was seen in the obese women (P = .07) / ---. The gene discussed is GCG; the disease is polycystic ovary syndrome.
