Fold change (means ± SDs) in gene expression levels of PPAR-γ, GLUT-1, and LDLR in women diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome who were candidate for in vitro fertilization, receiving chromium supplements and placebo. P-value was obtained from independent t-test. N = 20 in each group. IL-1, interleukin-1; IL-8, interleukin-8; LDLR, oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor; PPAR-γ, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor alpha; TGF-β, transforming growth factor beta; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor.
