越来越多的证据表明,子宫内膜异位症患者与正常人子宫内膜存在许多不同之处,表现为内异症患者的子宫内膜细胞粘附、侵袭和血管形成能力明显增强,使之具有异位种植和生长的能力,在内异症的发生和发展中起重要作用。最近研究表明,子宫内膜细胞自发性凋亡减弱和对凋亡信号不敏感,可能是内膜细胞具有异位种植和生长能力的重要因素。本文将细胞凋亡在正常子宫内膜周期变化中的作用,以及对子宫内膜异位症发生发展的影响作一综述。 相似文献

子宫内膜异位症(Endometriosis,EM)简称内异症,是育龄妇女的常见病,其发病率近年有上升趋势,由于其易浸润和复发,故是难治之症.近年来的研究显示,除肿瘤患者外,内异症患者(尤其是晚期患者)的血清CA125水平明显高于正常妇女,故CA125对诊断内异症有一定价值[1].内异症病因复杂,很可能由多种因素引起,其中与免疫功能平衡失调关系密切,抗子宫内膜抗体(EMAb)是一种以子宫内膜为靶抗原并引起一系列免疫病理反应的自身抗体,已成为内异症的标志抗体,其升高或降低与EM发展、消退相关[2].本文就CA125、EMAb和子宫内膜异症的关系研究进行综述. 相似文献

Many theories have been proposed to explain the development of endometriosis, and recently, autoimmune aetiology has been suggested. Besides, it is well known that endometriosis, especially the advanced disease, may impair fertility. B lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS) is a cytokine produced by macrophages and is necessary for normal B cell development. One of the most studied polymorphisms is the -817C/T in the promoter region of the gene. We aimed to assess the association between endometriosis-related infertility and idiopathic infertility and the BLyS -817C/T polymorphism in a Brazilian population. We performed a case-control study comprising 165 infertile women with endometriosis, 83 with idiopathic infertility and 145 fertile and assessed the association with BLys -817C/T polymorphism. BLyS -817C/T polymorphism was detected using TaqMan PCR. The results were analysed statistically, and a P-value < 0.05 was considered significant. The results disclosed similar genotype and allelic frequencies between endometriosis-related infertility (P = 0.225) and control group, regardless of the disease stage (P = 0.213 and P = 0.462, respectively). However, a statistically significant difference was observed regarding idiopathic infertile group (P = 0.048) compared with controls. Considering the dominant and recessive inheritance models, no significant differences in both endometriosis and idiopathic infertility group were found. The genotype frequencies were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in all studied groups. The results point to a possible association between BLyS -817C/T polymorphism and idiopathic infertility in Brazilian population. 相似文献

Evaluation of germline sequence variants within the promoter region of RANTES gene in a cohort of women with endometriosis from Spain 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The RANTES (regulated upon activation normal T cells expressed and secreted) chemokine, is known to be expressed in endometriotic lesions in a concentration correlating with the severity of endometriosis. Since it has been widely demonstrated that endometriosis has a genetic basis, we postulated that the gene encoding RANTES could be a good candidate gene for the disease. We have used fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) technology to genotype and evaluate the role of the variants -403G-->A and -28C-->G, located within the promoter region of the gene, as susceptibility factors in a cohort of Spanish women with endometriosis. No differences have been found in the allelic frequencies of both variants nor in the haplotype/ genotype distribution between patients and controls. These data are consistent with the lack of association between these polymorphisms and endometriosis in our population. They do not exclude completely a possible role of other variants within RANTES gene in this pathology. 相似文献

Variants of the CTLA4 gene that segregate with autoimmune diseases are not associated with endometriosis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

An autoimmune etiology has been suggested for endometriosis mostly on the basis of an increased prevalence of autoimmune diseases in affected women. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen (CTLA) 4 gene is recognized as a primary determinant for autoimmunity since specific polymorphisms have been associated with predisposition to most autoimmune disorders. This study was aimed to evaluate whether two variants of CTLA4 gene might be associated with endometriosis in an Italian population. We examined the +49A/G polymorphism and the CT60A/G dimorphism in n = 146 endometriosis subjects classified according to Holt and Weiss criteria. Controls were represented by n = 165 women without laparoscopic evidence of the disease. We found no statistically significant difference in the genotype frequencies between women with and without endometriosis. The proportion of the mutant G allele of the +49A/G polymorphism in the former and in the latter group resulted 34 and 30%, respectively. The proportion of the susceptible G allele of the CT60 A/G dimorphism resulted 51% in both groups. No association was demonstrated between the polymorphisms and the clinical forms of the disease and no susceptibility haplotypes were found. These findings suggest that endometriosis aetiology is not primarily associated with the development of CTLA4-linked autoimmunity. 相似文献

Endometriosis is a common, complex gynecologic disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma at extrauterine (ectopic) sites. In women who develop this disease, alterations in specific biological processes involving both the endocrine and immune systems have been observed, which may explain the survival and growth of displaced endometrial tissue in affected women. In the past decade, a considerable amount of research has implicated a role for alterations in progesterone action at both eutopic and ectopic sites of endometrial growth which may contribute to the excessive inflammation associated with progression of endometriosis; however, it remains unclear whether these anomalies induce the condition or are simply a consequence of the disease process. In this article, we summarize current knowledge of alterations within the immune system of endometriosis patients and discuss how endometrial cells from women with this disease not only have the capacity to escape immunosurveillance, but also use inflammatory mechanisms to promote their growth within the peritoneal cavity. Finally, we discuss evidence that exposure to an environmental endocrine disruptor, such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, can mediate the development of an endometrial phenotype that exhibits both reduced progesterone responsiveness and hypersensitivity to proinflammatory stimuli mimicking the endometriosis phenotype. Future studies in women with endometriosis should consider whether a heightened inflammatory response within the peritoneal microenvironment contributes to the development and persistence of this disease. 相似文献

Several studies have shown that tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha levels are increased in the peritoneal fluid of women with endometriosis, with correlation between TNF-alpha concentrations and the degree of disease. It is also likely that elevation of peritoneal fluids' TNF-alpha levels may play a role in the pathogenesis of infertility associated with endometriosis. Use of drugs such as etanercept, a TNF-alpha receptor immunoglobulin fusion protein which inhibits TNF-alpha activity, showed in an animal study to reduce the severity of the disease, and the size of endometriotic foci. TNF-alpha blockers were recommended as a possible new line of therapy for endometriosis. Our case involved a 35-year-old Para 0, with rheumatic arthritis and stage 4 endometriosis. After 6 years of constant use of etanercept, she showed no improvement of endometriosis as demonstrated at laparoscopy. However, she underwent a successful IVF after the first attempt. TNF-alpha-blocker medications might not be beneficial for patients with advanced endometriosis. However, we cannot exclude the possible effect of these medications on early-stage endometriosis, and further study is required. Some of the immunologic abnormalities in the pelvis of patients with endometriosis could be the consequence of the disease and not the cause, and possibly suppression of immune cells and their products may not have a major effect on endometriotic lesions at an advanced stage. This also could explain why suppression of TNF-alpha showed no effect on infertility. However, use of TNF-alpha-blockers before IVF might increase the success rate in advanced endometriosis. 相似文献

Endometriosis is a frequent gynecological disease of unknown etiology and pathogenesis. It affects the gynecological organs and the peritoneum with varying frequency and can lead to severe symptoms, mainly pain and to infertility. Despite the fact that causal therapy is not feasible diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are necessary in many cases. In a small percentage of cases endometriosis is associated with neoplastic disease and in some cases it might develop into a neoplasm via the stage of atypical endometriosis, notably in the ovaries. Tumors which are most frequently associated with endometriosis are endometrioid carcinoma, clear cell carcinoma, and low grade serous carcinoma. According to some authors tumors associated with endometriosis have a better prognosis than those without. Other tumors are Mullerian adenosarcoma, endometrioid stromal sarcoma, and seromucinous borderline tumor. In addition to the morphological findings more recent molecular findings serve to demonstrate the origin of the different types of carcinoma from endometriosis. In both endometrioid and clear cell carcinoma, loss of heterozygosity (LOH) can be found in different gene loci. Mutations in CTNNB1 (beta catenin), PTEN, KRAS and ARID1a genes have been demonstrated in endometrioid carcinoma. Cases of clear cell carcinoma have been characterized by mutations of ARID1a gene, PIK3CA and less frequently PPP2R1A and KRAS. 相似文献

Numerous hypotheses have been put forward to explain the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue and stroma. The immune system participates in the homeostasis of the peritoneal cavity, and modifications in its functioning have been advanced to explain endometriosis and its consequences. Recently, the powerful anti-inflammatory effect of progesterone was recognized as a potential causal factor for endometriosis and could contribute to the autoimmune nature of endometriosis, as well as to more specific local and systemic changes. Autoimmune and inflammatory diseases are a diverse group of complex diseases characterized by loss of self-tolerance causing immune-mediated tissue destruction. Just as in autoimmune diseases, in endometriosis similar immunologic alterations occur, such as an increase in the number and cytotoxicity of macrophages, polyclonal increase in the activity of B lymphocytes, abnormalities in the functions and concentrations of B and T lymphocytes, and reduction in number or activity of natural killer cells. Furthermore, the presence of specific antiendometrial and antiovary antibodies was found both in endometriosis and infertility. Genetic factors play a role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, and autoimmunity genes are therefore reasonable candidate genes for endometriosis and endometriosis-associated infertility. Single nucleotide polymorphisms are common in the human genome and affect the function of crucial components of the T-cell-antigen-receptor signaling pathways; they could have profound effects on the function of the immune system and thus on the development of autoimmune diseases. Here, we conducted a critical medical literature review about the possible role of genetic variants in autoimmune-related genes in the development of endometriosis. 相似文献

Results There was no significant difference in the genotype frequencies of the two loci between endometriosis patients and the control subjects (P>0.05). And there was no significant interaction effect of these two genes on the disease either. Conclusion CYP17 gene and ERα gene may not be genetic risk factors for endometriosis among southern women in China. 相似文献

Oestrogen receptor-alpha gene polymorphism is associated with endometriosis, adenomyosis and leiomyomata 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21

Endometriosis, adenomyosis and leiomyomata develop in women of reproductive age and regress after menopause or ovariectomy, suggesting that they grow in an oestrogen-dependent fashion. We investigated whether polymorphism in the oestrogen receptor-alpha (ERalpha) gene is related to oestrogen-dependent benign uterine disease. A total of 203 women with regular menstrual cycles underwent laparotomy or laparoscopy and were diagnosed histologically with endometriosis, adenomyosis and/or leiomyomata. Patients with cervical carcinoma in situ, tubal occlusion or adhesion but no other gynaecological disease were considered to be disease-free. A total of 179 women undergoing annual health examination were grouped as reference population. The distribution of PVUII genotypes (PP, Pp, and pp) of the ERalpha gene was different between each pair of the four groups of endometriosis, adenomyosis/leiomyomata, disease-free, and reference population (P = 0.022-0.0005), except between the former two groups. The PP genotype was less frequent in the groups of endometriosis (P = 0.0002) and adenomyosis/leiomyomata (P = 0.002) as compared to that in the disease-free group. In the endometriosis group, there was no difference in the distribution of PVUII genotypes due to complicating diseases (adenomyosis and/or leiomyomata) or severity of the clinical stages. These results suggest that the PVUII polymorphism of the ERalpha gene is associated with the risk for endometriosis, adenomyosis, and leiomyomata. 相似文献
