Genotype–phenotype correlations of PCOS susceptibility SNPs identified by GWAS in a large cohort of Han Chinese women

The PCOS susceptibility genes, THADA and DENND1A, carry risk alleles that are associated with endocrine and metabolic disturbances in PCOS patients of Han Chinese descent. The findings have shown genuine heterogeneity, stratified on the basis of both clinical findings and genotypes. Replication of these results is expected in other ethnic groups.
