Cyclin A2 endometrial deficiency and early pregnancy loss


ABSTRACT: Proper action of the female sex steroids, 17β-estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) on endometrium is essential for fertility. Beyond its role in regulating the cell cycle, cyclin A2 (CCNA2) also mediates E2 and P4 signaling in vitro, but a potential role in modulating steroid action for proper endometrial tissue development and function is unknown. To fill this gap in our knowledge, we examined human endometrial tissue from fertile and infertile women for CCNA2 expression and correlated this with pregnancy outcome. Functional assessment of CCNA2 was validated in vivo using a conditional Ccna2 uterine deficient mouse model while in vitro function was assessed using human cell culture models. We found that CCNA2 expression was significantly reduced in endometrial tissue, specifically the stromal cells, from women undergoing in vitro fertilization who failed to achieve pregnancy. Conditional deletion of Ccna2 from mouse uterine tissue recapitulated the inability to achieve successful pregnancy which appears to be due to alterations in the process of decidualization, which was confirmed using in vitro models. From these studies, we conclude that CCNA2 expression during the proliferative/regenerative stage of the menstrual cycle acts as a safeguard allowing for proper steroid responsiveness, decidualization and pregnancy. When CCNA2 expression levels are insufficient there is impaired endometrial responsiveness, aberrant decidualization and loss of pregnancy.
