Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a metabolic and complicated endocrine disorder seen in 5 to 15% of premenopausal women. Currently, one in five ~ 20% Indian women suffer from PCOS. It is characterized by hyperandrogenism, chronic anovulation, hirsutism and insulin resistance. Though the underlying cause in its pathophysiology is still not clear, but the derangement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis could be the significant aspect in its manifestation. In this study, female Wistar rats (200±10 g bwt), exhibiting regular estrous cycle received an oral dose of RU486 [20 mg/kg/day] for 13 consecutive days for establishing the PCOS induced conditions. Biochemical, histomorphometrical and apoptotic changes were observed in pre and post noscapine treated PCOS induced rats and checked for its credence. Further radiolabeling studies were performed with 99m Technetium labed noscapine which gave us an insight in localization of noscapine in ovarian and brain tissue of rats and bringing about its action probably via hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. It can be concluded that the RU486 model is appropriate for understanding the ovarian and metabolic features of human PCOS and noscapine has a potential to act as a therapeutic medicament for amelioration of PCOS induced condition.
