Introduction: Non-diabetic women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) often have abnormal insulin regulation. Calpain 10 (CALP10) is a biomarker of type 2 diabetes mellitus, with some of its single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) influencing PCOS development.
Methods: In this case-control study on 90 women each with and without PCOS, we explored the molecular role of five CALP10 SNPs using biochemical parameters and Sanger sequencing analyses.
Polycystic ovary syndrome is a complex disorder defined by the Rotterdam criteria. Insulin resistance is a common factor for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus among women with PCOS. The gene has been identified as a T2DM gene by genome-wide association studies in the rs8192675 SNP.

Toll-like receptor 2 () gene was linked to PCOS and chronic inflammation, and the prevalence of obesity was rising in Saudi women. Previous studies on rs5743708 polymorphism were documented in the obesity as well as in PCOS women.

Previous studies have reported a relationship among obesity, adiponectin (), and diabetes in Saudi Arabia. is an adipokine that is produced and secreted by adipose tissue involved in the regulation of carbohydrate and fatty acid metabolism.

Chemokines are proinflammatory cytokines that play a role in the development of chronic diseases such as obesity, gestational diabetes, and T2DM. The C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 5 () gene plays a role in antiviral immunity, tumor development, obesity, impaired glucose tolerance, and T2DM.
