Potential benefits of adlay on hyperandrogenism in human chorionic gonadotropin-treated theca cells and a rodent model of polycystic ovary syndrome
This study investigated the therapeutic potential of adlay on polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its possible underlying mechanism. The active anti-androgenic components in adlay were further analyzed. Rat ovarian theca cells were treated with human chorionic gonadotropin to stimulate androstenedi...
