Project description:Background: Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive age women and 30%-50% of infertile women. Decreased endometrial receptivity is mainly responsible for infertile women with minimal/mild endometriosis. Medical therapy to improve fecundity of these women is needed. Metformin is reported to inhibit growth of ectopic lesions in endometriosis, while the effect on eutopic endometrium is unclear. The study was to identify if metformin had effect on eutopic endometrium in women with minimal/mild endometriosis and thus improve their fecundity. Materials and Methods: Paired endometrial tissues of secretory phase from participants with minimal/mild endometriosis were collected before and after two months of metformin treatment and setting metformin-free control. Protein expression profiles of endometrium were analyzed by proteomics. Results: A total of 115 proteins were detected up-regulated after metformin therapy, including Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7, α-antitrypsin, apolipoprotein D, Rho GDP-dissociation inhibitor 1, brain form glycogen phosphorylase, and Cathepsin B that associated with endometrial receptivity, while there had no significant changes in controls. These up-regulated markers were validated through target proteomics and further demonstrated with endometriosis mice models. Conclusions: This study revealed that metformin might ameliorate biomarkers expressions of endometrial receptivity in human and mice model. Metformin is potential to improve endometrial receptivity of endometriosis-associated infertility.

Project description:Alterations in endometrial DNA methylation profile have been proposed as one potential mechanism initiating the development of endometriosis. However, the normal endometrial methylome is influenced by the cyclic hormonal changes and the menstrual cycle phase-dependent epigenetic signature should be considered when studying endometrial disorders. So far, no studies have been performed to evaluate the menstrual cycle influences and endometriosis-specific endometrial methylation pattern at the same time. Therefore, we used Infinium HumanMethylation 450K BeadChip arrays to explore DNA methylation profiles of endometrial tissues from various menstrual cycle phases. Infinium HumanMethylation 450K BeadChip arrays were used to explore DNA methylation profiles of endometrial tissues from mid secretory cycle phase from 17 patients without endometriosis

Project description:We primary cultured ectopic endometrial cells from patients with endometriosis (2 cases) and without endometriosis(2 cases) and collected cell culture supernatants（P0). We isolated exosomes from cell culture supernatants by differential centrifugation and then performed proteome analysis on the two groups of exosomes to investigate the role of ectopic endometrial cell-derived exosomes in the development of endometriosis.

Project description:Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent gynecological condition that affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. The most widely accepted theory of the etiology of endometriosis includes the process of retrograde menstruation, where menstrual effluent travels up the Fallopian tubes, accesses the peritoneal cavity, and in some people is able to establish endometriotic lesions. Recent reports suggest the uterus is not devoid of bacteria, as was once believed. Thus, the refluxed menstrual effluent may also carry bacteria along with it, and this bacteria has been suggested to contribute to inflammation, and establishment and growth of endometriotic lesions. Here, we sought to compare and contrast the uterine bacteria (endometrial microbiota) in women with surgically confirmed presence or absence of endometriosis using next-generation 16S rRNA gene sequencing. We obtained an average of more than 9000 sequence reads per endometrial biopsy, and found that the endometrial microbiota of women with endometriosis was more diverse (greater Shannon Diversity Index and greater proportion of ‘Other’ taxa) than that of symptomatic controls (women with pelvic pain, but with surgically confirmed absence of endometriosis; diagnosed with other benign gynecological conditions at surgery). The difference in endometrial microbiotas was supported in unsupervised cluster analyses where some clustering of endometrial microbiota by disease status (endometriosis vs. controls) was observed. The bacterial taxa enriched in the endometrial microbiota of women with endometriosis belonged to the Actinobacteria phylum, Oxalobacteraceae and Streptococcaceae families, and Tepidimonas genus, while those enriched in the symptomatic controls (without endometriosis) belonged to the Burkholderiaceae family, and Ralstonia genus. Taken together, our findings suggest the endometrial microbiota is perturbed in people with endometriosis.

Project description:The hypothesis that male michrochimerism in eutopic endometrium is a factor for endometriosis, as indicated by indirect evidence was examined in endometrial samples from control (Group 1) and stage IV ovarian endometriosis (Group 2), either fertile (Group 1A and 2A) or Infertile (Group 1B and 2B) pateints. 6 coding and 10 non-coding genes showed bi-modal pattern of expression characterised by low expression in samples obtained from fertile patients and high expressions in infertile patients. Several coding and non-coding MSY-linked genes displayed michrochimerism in form of presence of their respective DNA inserts along with their microarray-detectable expression in endometrium irrespective of fertility history and disease.

Project description:Endometriosis is a leading cause of pain and infertility affecting millions of women globally. Biological and genetic effects on DNA methylation (DNAm) can influence gene regulation and contribute to complex disease. Herein, we characterize variation in endometrial DNAm and its association with menstrual cycle phase, endometriosis, and genetic variants through analysis of genome-wide genotype data and methylation at 759,345 DNAm sites in endometrial samples from 984 deeply-phenotyped participants. We estimate that 15.4% of the variation in endometriosis is captured by DNAm and identify significant differences in DNAm profiles and DNAm networks, associated with endometriosis, endometriosis sub-phenotypes and menstrual cycle phase, including opening of the window for embryo implantation. DNAm quantitative trait locus (mQTL) analysis identified 118,185 independent cis-mQTLs including 51 associated with risk of endometriosis highlighting candidate genes contributing to disease risk. Our work provides functional evidence for epigenetic targets contributing to endometriosis risk and pathogenesis. Data generated serve as a valuable resource for understanding tissue-specific effects of methylation on endometrial biology in health and disease.
