Dataset Information

TGFBI is upregulated in ectopic endometrial stromal cells and under hypoxic conditions in endometriosis.

ABSTRACT: The objective of the study was to compare the transcriptome of the primary eutopic and ectopic endometrial stromal cells isolated from paired eutopic endometrium and peritoneal lesions from women with endometriosis (N = 5) exposed to normoxic (20% O2) or hypoxic (1% O2) conditions for 48 hours. Induced expression of TGFBI was found in ectopic cells and ectopic & eutopic cells exposed to hypoxia at both RNA and protein (secreted to the culture media) levels. TGFBI gene and protein expression ex vivo in euoptic endometrium of women with endometriosis and controls (women without endometriosis) was found to be increased in the proliferative phase of menstrual cycle compared to secretory phase.

Project description:Abstract: Objective: Adenomyosis is a clinical disorder defined by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma within the myometrium, the pathogenesis of which is poorly understood. We postulate that dysregulation of genes and pathways in eutopic endometrium may predispose to ectopic implantation. No study, to our knowledge, has examined the global transcriptome of isolated eutopic endometrium from women with clinically significant adenomyosis. Design: Laboratory-based study with full IRB approval and consents. Material and Methods: Endometrial sampling was performed on hysterectomy specimens (proliferative phase) from symptomatic women with pathologically-confirmed diffuse adenomyosis (n=3). Controls (n=5) were normo-ovulatory subjects without adenomyosis. All subjects were free from leiomyoma, endometriosis, and hormonal exposures. Isolated purified total RNA was subjected to microarray analysis using the Gene 1.0 ST Affymetrix platform. Data were analyzed with GeneSpring and Ingenuity Pathway analysis. Validation of several genes was undertaken by QRT-PCR. Results: Comparison of transcriptomes of proliferative endometrium from women with and without adenomyosis revealed 140 up-regulated and 884 down-regulated genes in samples from women with adenomyosis compared to controls. Highly differentially expressed genes include those involved in regulation of apoptopsis, steroid hormone responsiveness, and proteins involved in extracellular matrix remodeling, as well as microRNAs of unknown significance. Affected canonical pathways included eukaryotic initiation factor 2 signaling, oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial dysfunction, estrogen receptor signaling, and mTOR signaling. Conclusions: The eutopic endometrium in patients with adenomyosis has fundamental abnormalities that may predispose to invasion and survival beyond the myometrial interface. Key Words: adenomyosis, endometrium, microarray, microRNA, endometriosis, apoptosis, signaling.

Endometrial samples from hysterectomy specimens in proliferative phase of menstrual cycle from symptomatic women with pathologically-confirmed diffuse adenomyosis were compared with endometrial samples from normo-ovulatory healthy subjects with no endometrial or uterine pathology.
