ER beta regulated transcriptome in endometriotic tissues
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The Estrogen Receptor beta (ERβ) has an essential role in endometriosis progression. However, the molecular mechanism of how ERβ drives endometriosis progression is not elucidated, yet. To define the role of genomic ERβ in endometriosis progression, we have employed whole-genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify ERβ-regulated transcriptome in endometriotic tissues. To get this transcriptome, we applied endometrium specific ERβ overexpression (ERBOE) mouse model by crossing mouse having a pCAG promoter-loxPSTOPloxP-ERβ cassette with PRCre knockin mice that Cre recombinase cDNA was inserted into exon 1 of PR gene. Endometriosis was surgically induced in ERBOE mice and PRCre mice as the control by transplantation of uterine tissues. The ectopic lesions and eutopic endometrium were harvested at the estrus cycle in 4th weeks after endometriosis induction.
