Interaction between metabolic disorders and ovarian steroidogenesis in PCOS granulosa cells. (A) Heatmap of differential expressed genes involved in the fatty acid biosynthetic process, (B) lipid metabolism, (C) ovarian steroidogenesis in the PCOS group and control group. (D) Protein–protein interaction (PPI) network between fatty acid biosynthetic process, lipid metabolism, and ovarian steroidogenesis. (E) Ten hub genes (SREBF1, HMGCR, FASN, SCD, INSIG1, FADS2, SCD5, ACSS2, LDLR, and LSS) in the PPI network. (F) mRNA expression levels of 10 hub genes (SREBF1, HMGCR, FASN, SCD, INSIG1, FADS2, SCD5, ACSS2, LDLR, and LSS) in granulosa cells from control and women with PCOS, N = 3. Data were analyzed by two-tailed Student’s t-test (F). All data are presented as the Mean ± SEM.
