The expression of perilipin 3 (PLIN3) significantly increased following 16 weeks of aerobic exercise training in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Aerobic exercise may enhance lipolysis in women with PCOS by increasing PLIN3 expression.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Following exercise training, PLIN3 was the only perilipin to increase significantly (P<0.05).
