Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is thought to be useful for chronic pain, with the pathology of the latter being closely associated with cognitive-emotional components. However, there are few resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (R-fMRI) studies. We used the independent component analysis method to examine neural changes after CBT and to assess whether brain regions predict treatment response. METHODS We performed R-fMRI on a group of 29 chronic pain (somatoform pain disorder) patients and 30 age-matched healthy controls (T1). Patients were enrolled in a weekly 12-session group CBT (T2). We assessed selected regions of interest that exhibited differences in intrinsic connectivity network (ICN) connectivity strength between the patients and controls at T1, and compared T1 and T2. We also examined the correlations between treatment effects and rs-fMRI data. RESULTS Abnormal ICN connectivity of the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and inferior parietal lobule within the dorsal attention network (DAN) and of the paracentral lobule within the sensorimotor network in patients with chronic pain normalized after CBT. Higher ICN connectivity strength in the OFC indicated greater improvements in pain intensity. Furthermore, ICN connectivity strength in the dorsal posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) within the DAN at T1 was negatively correlated with CBT-related clinical improvements. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that the OFC is crucial for CBT-related improvement of pain intensity, and that the dorsal PCC activation at pretreatment also plays an important role in improvement of clinical symptoms via CBT.

Abstract
Endometriosis is characterized by the implantation and growth of endometriotic tissues outside the uterus. It is widely accepted the theory that endometriosis is caused by the implantation of endometrial tissue from retrograde menstruation; however, retrograde menstruation occurs in almost all women and other factors are required for the establishment of endometriosis, such as cell survival, cell invasion, angiogenesis, and cell growth. Immune factors in the local environment may, therefore, contribute to the formation and progression of endometriosis. Current evidence supports the involvement of immune cells in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Peritoneal neutrophils and macrophages secrete biochemical factors that help endometriotic cell growth and invasion, and angiogenesis. Peritoneal macrophages and NK cells in endometriosis have limited capability of eliminating endometrial cells in the peritoneal cavity. An imbalance of T cell subsets leads to aberrant cytokine secretions and inflammation that results in the growth of endometriosis lesions. It is still uncertain whether these immune cells have a role in the initial cause and/or stimulate actions that enhance disease; however, in either case, modulating the actions of these cells may prevent initiation or disease progression. Further studies are needed to deepen the understanding of the pathology of endometriosis and to develop novel management approaches of benefit to women suffering from this disease.

Abstract
AIM Our objective was to determine the preoperative factors associated with difficulty in total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). METHODS This retrospective clinical study included 157 patients who underwent TLH for leiomyoma or adenomyosis between 2009 and 2013. All patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before surgery. We categorized patients as 'difficult' if the operation time was > 243 min, if total blood loss was > 500 mL, or if conversion to laparotomy was necessary. Preoperative information, including MRI findings, was compared between the difficult and 'other' patients. Stepwise logistic regression analysis was used to control for covariates that were significant on univariate analysis (P < 0.05). RESULTS The presence of an endometrioma, a previous cesarean section (CS), a wide uterus, and a high body mass index were independent risk factors for being a difficult patient. For adenomyosis patients, the presence of an endometrioma, a prior CS, subtype II adenomyosis, and high body mass index were independent risk factors for being a difficult patient. For leiomyoma patients, the presence of an endometrioma, a prior CS, and having at least seven leiomyomas were independent risk factors for being a difficult patient. All laparotomy conversion patients had multiple risk factors. CONCLUSION We have elucidated the factors associated with difficult TLH patients using patients' background and preoperative MRI findings. Awareness of these predictive factors may enable surgeons to prepare for the operation, minimize complications, or choose another more appropriate route of hysterectomy than TLH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been demonstrated that negatively distorted self-referential processing, in which individuals evaluate one's own self, is a pathogenic mechanism in subthreshold depression that has a considerable impact on the quality of life and carries an elevated risk of developing major depression. Behavioural activation (BA) is an effective intervention for depression, including subthreshold depression. However, brain mechanisms underlying BA are not fully understood. We sought to examine the effect of BA on neural activation during other perspective self-referential processing in subthreshold depression. METHOD A total of 56 subjects underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging scans during a self-referential task with two viewpoints (self/other) and two emotional valences (positive/negative) on two occasions. Between scans, while the intervention group (n = 27) received BA therapy, the control group (n = 29) did not. RESULTS The intervention group showed improvement in depressive symptoms, increased activation in the dorsal medial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC), and increased reaction times during other perspective self-referential processing for positive words after the intervention. Also, there was a positive correlation between increased activation in the dmPFC and improvement of depressive symptoms. Additionally, there was a positive correlation between improvement of depressive symptoms and increased reaction times. CONCLUSIONS BA increased dmPFC activation during other perspective self-referential processing with improvement of depressive symptoms and increased reaction times which were associated with improvement of self-monitoring function. Our results suggest that BA improved depressive symptoms and objective monitoring function for subthreshold depression.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the usefulness of sequential T2-weighted spin-echo type multishot echo-planar (T2-EP) imaging with gadopentetate dimeglumine for the detection of hypovascular metastatic liver tumors. Material and Methods: Fifteen consecutive patients with 56 proven hypovascular metastatic liver tumors were included in the study. Three observers blindly and independently read the whole-liver images obtained with T2-weighted spin-echo, T2-weighted single-shot fast spin-echo, T1-weighted fast multiplanar spoiled GRASS and T2-EP images obtained before and 25, 60, 90 and 120 s after injection of 0.2 mmol/kg b.w. of gadopentetate dimeglumine. The diagnostic accuracy was estimated by calculating the area under the observer-specific binomial receiver operating characteristics curves (Az). Results: T2-EP images obtained 60 s after contrast injection showed significantly higher contrast-to-noise (C/N) ratios than the other imaging techniques. A combination of all phases of the T2-EP images produced the highest sensitivity and specificity. In terms of the Az value, the diagnostic accuracy for tumor detection achieved with a combination of all phases of the T2-EP images was significantly higher than that with T1-SPGR and T2-SSFSE images ( p < 0.01). The Az values of the T2-EP images (Az = 0.975) were higher than those of T2-CSE images (Az = 0.948), but the difference was not significant. Conclusion: Our preliminary study revealed that sequential imaging with enhanced T2-EP images was useful for the detection of hypovascular metastatic liver tumors because of its superior C/N ratio and sensitivity.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) is crucial for ovarian angiogenesis, but its excess production induces ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). The aim of this study was to determine whether endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress regulates VEGFA expression in granulosa cells, and whether its activation is involved in OHSS development. The expression of the spliced form of X-box-binding protein 1 [XBP1(S)], induced by ER stress, in cumulus cells from OHSS patients was higher than that in cumulus cells from non-OHSS patients. The ER stress inducer tunicamycin increased human chorionic gonadotropin-induced VEGFA production in human granulosa cells through the induction of XBP1(S), and pretreatment with the ER stress inhibitor tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) abrogated the effect of tunicamycin. In OHSS model rats, TUDCA administration prevented the OHSS development, reducing ovarian VEGFA production. Our findings suggest ER stress upregulates hCG-induced VEGFA production in granulosa cells, indicating that ER stress might be involved in OHSS development.

Abstract
CONTEXT Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent, chronic inflammatory disease. Recent studies have shown that vitamin D (VD) is an effective modulator of the immune system and plays an important role in controlling many inflammatory diseases. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to clarify the in vitro effects of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25[OH]2D3) on human endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) and to determine the serum levels of VD in endometriosis patients. DESIGN, PATIENTS, AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES ESCs were isolated from ovarian endometrioma and cultured with 1,25(OH)2D3. Gene expression of IL-8, cyclooxygenase-2, microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1, microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-2, cytosolic prostaglandin E synthase, 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, and MMP-9 was examined using quantitative RT-PCR. The production of IL-8 and prostaglandin E2 was measured using an ELISA and an enzyme immunoassay. Viable cell number was assessed using a cell-counting assay, and DNA synthesis was assessed using the bromodeoxyuridine incorporation assay. Apoptosis was assessed using flow cytometry. The expression of inhibitory-κBα protein was detected using Western blotting. The serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 were measured by a RIA. RESULTS In vitro studies showed that 1,25(OH)2D3 significantly reduced IL-1β- or TNF-α-induced inflammatory responses, such as IL-8 expression and prostaglandin activity. 1,25(OH)2D3 also reduced viable ESC numbers and DNA synthesis but did not affect apoptosis. MMP-2 and MMP-9 expressions were reduced by 1,25(OH)2D3. 1,25(OH)2D3 inhibited nuclear factor-κB activation. The serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels were significantly lower in women with severe endometriosis than in the controls and women with mild endometriosis. Serum 1,25(OH)2D3 levels were not different between groups. CONCLUSIONS VD modulates inflammation and proliferation in endometriotic cells, and a lower VD status is associated with endometriosis. Taken together, VD supplementation could be a novel therapeutic strategy for managing endometriosis.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To evaluate the frequency of pneumothorax after laparoscopic surgery and to identify possible correlations to endometriosis. DESIGN Retrospective review. SETTING Tokyo University Hospital between 2006 and 2013. PATIENTS Four patients among a total of 2814 patients with a postoperative pneumothorax. INTERVENTION Laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic benign disease. The main outcome was the clinical frequency and characteristics of the patients with postoperative pneumothorax. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We observed 4 (0.14%) cases of postoperative pneumothorax after laparoscopic surgery, all of whom were diagnosed with endometriomas and developed a right-sided pneumothorax. The incidence of postoperative pneumothorax in 1097 patients with endometriomas was 0.36%, which was significantly higher than those without endometriomas. CONCLUSION The presence of endometrioma should be considered a risk factor for postoperative pneumothorax in gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.

Abstract
Adenomyosis is a common disorder in premenopausal women that causes dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain and menorrhagia. Considering that adenomyosis is an estrogen-dependent disease, the medical treatment is based on this hormone. Effective and well-tolerated medical treatments for symptomatic adenomyosis are needed. Dienogest, an oral progestin, has been extensively investigated in the treatment of endometriosis. In this report, we present the results on the efficacy and safety of dienogest in the treatment of symptomatic adenomyosis. Seventeen patients with symptomatic adenomyosis were included in this study, of which 15 continued dienogest for up to 24 weeks. Dienogest significantly reduced adenomyosis-associated pelvic pain as well as serum CA-125 and CA19-9 levels. It also demonstrated a modest suppression of estradiol (>50 pg/ mL), which is consistent with the findings of other reports. During treatment, five patients experienced worsening anemia because of metrorrhagia, which is the most frequent adverse effect associated with dienogest. This report suggests that dienogest is an effective and well-tolerated therapy for symptomatic adenomyosis.

Abstract
Dienogest is a novel progestin that is highly selective for progesterone receptors and inhibits endometriosis. However, it remains unknown how the administration of dienogest to patients with endometriosis impacts on their lesion tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo effect of dienogest on endometriosis tissue. We collected endometrioma tissues from patients treated with dienogest (N = 7) or not treated (N = 11, controls). Cell proliferation, aromatase expression and blood vessel density were evaluated by staining for Ki67, aromatase and the von Willebrand factor, respectively. Apoptosis was detected using the TUNEL assay. The proportion of Ki67 and aromatase positive epithelial cells was significantly lower in the dienogest group than in controls (p < 0.05, respectively). The number of TUNEL positive cells was significantly higher in the dienogest group (p < 0.05). The density of blood vessels in endometrioma was marginally lower in the dienogest group compared with controls (p = 0.20). Our study demonstrates that endometrioma taken from patients treated with dienogest show remarkable histological features such as reduction of proliferation, aromatase expression and angiogenesis, and increase of apoptosis. This study clarified the impact of dienogest on local histological events that explain its therapeutic effect on endometriosis.

Abstract
Ultrafast photoinduced transitions of a one-dimensional Mott insulator into two distinct electronic phases, metal and charge-density-wave (CDW) state, were achieved in a bromine-bridged Pd-chain compound [Pd(en)2Br](C5-Y)2H2O (en=ethylenediamine and C5-Y=dialkylsulfosuccinate), by selecting the photon energy of a femtosecond excitation pulse. For the resonant excitation of the Mott-gap transition, excitonic states are generated and converted to one-dimensional CDW domains. For the higher-energy excitation, free electron and hole carriers are produced, giving rise to a transition of the Mott insulator to a metal. Such selectivity in photoconversions by the choice of initial photoexcited states opens a new possibility for the developments of advanced optical switching and memory functions.

Abstract
PROBLEM Immune tolerance to endometriotic cells is important to promote endometriosis. Tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) enhances immune tolerance by catabolizing tryptophan to kynurenine. We studied whether interleukin-1β (IL-1β), a typical endometriosis-associated cytokine, affects the expression of TDO and the catabolism of tryptophan in endometrioma stromal cells (ESCs). We also studied whether the expression of TDO is involved in IL-1β-induced secretion of IL-6 and IL-8 in ESCs. METHOD OF STUDY Nineteen endometriotic patients of reproductive age with normal menstrual cycles were recruited. Primary cultures of ESCs were treated with IL-1β and TDO siRNA. TDO mRNA was measured using quantitative PCR. TDO protein was measured using Western blotting. Concentrations of kynurenine in condition media were measured using Ehrlich reagent. Concentrations of tryptophan in conditioned media were measured using tryptophan detection kit. Concentrations of IL-6 and IL-8 in conditioned media were measured using ELISA kits. RESULTS IL-1β (1 ng/mL) increased the expression of TDO mRNA and TDO protein in ESCs. IL-1β-treated ESCs increased the production of kynurenine and the effect was inhibited by TDO siRNA. Treatment with the siRNA also decreased IL-1β-induced secretion of IL-6 and IL-8 from ESCs. CONCLUSION IL-1β is suggested to stimulate tryptophan catabolism and production of IL-6 and IL-8 by increasing TDO expression in endometriosis.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) cytokine is known to regulate ovulation, as BMP-6 null mice exhibit a decrease in the number of ovulatory follicles without effect on either the morphology or the dynamics of follicular development. In the present study, the role of BMP-6 in ovulatory process was investigated using human granulosa-lutein cells (GCs). Granulosa-lutein cells, obtained from in vitro fertilization patients, were cultured with BMP-6 followed by RNA extraction. The neutrophil-chemotactic activity of the supernatant of cultured GC was investigated. Bone morphogenetic protein 6 significantly increased growth-regulated oncogene α (GRO-α) messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression in GC. In the neutrophil-chemotaxis assay, the GC supernatant cultured with BMP-6 attracted more neutrophils than control samples, which was negated with anti-GRO-α neutralizing antibody. Bone morphogenetic protein 6 also suppressed the relative expression of the protease inhibitors, secretory leukocyte peptidase inhibitor, and whey acid protein 14 mRNA in GC. Bone morphogenetic protein 6 might play a role in ovulation by increasing the accumulation of neutrophils in the ovulatory follicle and suppressing the effect of protease inhibitors.

Abstract
CONTEXT Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which immune response and production of estrogen in endometriotic tissues are involved in the development of the disease. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) stimulates aromatase (P450arom) expression in endometrioma stromal cells (ESCs) and increases the production of estrogens. On the other hand, an accumulating amount of evidence suggests that IL-4, a typical Th2 cytokine, plays important roles in the disease. OBJECTIVE The objective of the investigation was to study the effect of IL-4 on the expression of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD3B2), a pivotal enzyme for estrogen production, in ESCs. DESIGN, PATIENTS, AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES ESCs were isolated from ovarian endometrioma tissues and cultured with IL-4 and PGE2. CP-690550, a Janus protein tyrosine kinase 3 inhibitor, and HSD3B2 small interfering RNA were added to the culture. Gene expression of HSD3B2 and P450arom was examined by quantitative RT-PCR. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) was added to the culture, and then the combined enzyme activity of HSD3B2, which converts DHEA to androstenedione, and P450arom, which converts androstenedione to estrone, was examined by measuring estrone concentration in the supernatants with a specific enzyme immunoassay. RESULTS IL-4 increased the expression of HSD3B2 mRNA in a dose-dependent manner. CP-650550 inhibited the IL-4-induced increase in HSD3B2 mRNA expression. PGE2 also increased the expression of HSD3B2 mRNA, and the combination of IL-4 and PGE2 synergistically increased the expression of HSD3B2 mRNA. IL-4 had no effect on the expression of P450arom mRNA, whereas PGE2 increased the expression of P450arom mRNA. Although PGE2 alone increased the production of estrone from DHEA, the combination of IL-4 and PGE2 significantly augmented the production of estrone from DHEA. The enhanced production of estrone by the combination of IL-4 and PGE2 was inhibited by CP-690550 and HSD3B2 small interfering RNA. CONCLUSIONS IL-4 in combination with PGE2 may enhance estrogen production in endometriotic tissues, implying an elaborate mechanism that Th2 immune response augments inflammation-dependent progression of the disease.

Abstract
PROBLEM The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of mechanical stretch caused by uterine contraction and progesterone (P₄) on decidual cells (DC), neutrophil chemokines, and MMP-1 expression. METHOD OF STUDY DC were cultured, and cyclic stretch was applied using a computer-operated cell stretch system. Interleukin (IL)-8, growth-regulated oncogene (GRO) α, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1, and mRNA and/or protein expression/activity was measured using RT-PCR and ELISA. Neutrophil chemotactic activity in conditioned media was evaluated using migration assays. The effect of P₄ was also studied. RESULTS Cyclic mechanical stretch increased IL-8, GROα, mRNA and protein, and MMP-1 production and activity level. Supernatant from stretched cells induced neutrophil chemotactic activity significantly. P₄ suppressed the effect of stretch. CONCLUSION The current study demonstrates that cyclic mechanical stretch stimulates the production of neutrophil chemokines and MMP-1 from human decidual cells, and the production was reduced by progesterone. These findings suggest that decidual cells are responding to mechanical and endocrine signals and induce biochemical factors and thereby contribute to the regulation of human labor.

Abstract
Laparoscopic excision is considered as the 'gold standard' treatment of ovarian endometrioma. However, a frustrating aspect is that disease can recur. While laparoscopic excision is known to improve fertility, recurrence can cause significant ovarian damage and adverse affects on fertility. It is therefore crucial to prevent recurrence in order to conserve 'improved' fertility. Recurrence rates for endometrioma are reported from 11 to 32% within 1-5 years after excision. The recurrence rate is higher in patients with advanced endometriosis at surgery and in younger patients. Previous medical treatment for endometriosis prior laparoscopy is a risk factor for recurrence. Pregnancy soon after surgery has a protective effect for recurrence. The accumulating evidence suggests that the administration of oral contraceptives (OC), levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) and a combination of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue and OC may also have therapeutic benefits. Collectively, we propose that women should be well informed about the risks of endometrioma recurrence. We recommend that women who wish pregnancy should try conception as soon as possible. Further, we strongly advise hormonal therapy for patients, who do not want to conceive immediately, and until pregnancy is desired.

Abstract
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is an enzyme that degrades an essential amino acid, tryptophan, and plays a role in inhibiting the proliferation of T cells and intracellular pathogens. Inhibiting IDO in mice leads to fetal rejection, suggesting its significance in establishing pregnancy. Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR-3) is a key component of the innate immune system that recognizes viral double-stranded RNA and triggers immune reactions by producing type I interferon. Using a human trophoblast cell culture system, we studied the effect of TLR-3 ligation on IDO expression and function by treating trophoblasts with polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly(I:C)] (a synthetic double stranded RNA, which mimics viral RNA). Real-time PCR and Western blot analysis revealed that IDO mRNA and protein expression was significantly induced by poly(I:C). The activity of IDO was also increased by poly(I:C) given that the L-kynurenine concentrations were elevated in conditioned media. Conditioned media from poly(I:C)-treated trophoblasts were found to inhibit the proliferation of human T cells significantly. Poly(I:C) was also shown to induce interferon (IFN)-β mRNA expression in trophoblasts. Recombinant human IFN-β increased IDO mRNA expression in trophoblasts more rapidly than poly(I:C). Pretreating with neutralizing antibody against IFN-β significantly suppressed IDO induction by poly(I:C). Collectively we have demonstrated that ligation of TLR-3 by poly(I:C) induces IDO expression in human first-trimester trophoblasts via an IFN-β-dependent pathway. These findings suggest that upon viral infection, trophoblasts induce IDO and in turn contribute to antimicrobial activity and maintenance of fetomaternal tolerance.

Abstract
Extragenital endometriosis severely impairs the quality of life for affected women but its standard management has not yet been well established because of its relatively low incidence. As extragenital organs, intestine, followed by urinary tract, is the most common place affected by endometriosis, for which surgical treatment is sometimes difficult and accompanied by severe complications. Recently, dienogest, a novel progestin, has emerged as a new alternative for endometriosis, especially for endometriosis-associated pain. In this report, we presented four cases with rectosigmoidal and one with bladder endometriosis, treated with oral 2 mg/day dienogest for over 6 months. For all cases, the measurable extragenital lesions exhibited the reduction in their size after 10 to 11 months of use, accompanied with immediate relief of subjective symptoms related with extragenital lesions. This report suggests that dienogest can be a novel conservative alternative for extragenital endometriosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of interleukin (IL)-17F on the secretion of IL-8 and the gene expression of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) in endometriotic stromal cells. DESIGN In vitro experimental study using human samples. SETTING University hospital. PATIENT(S) Endometriotic tissues were obtained from women with ovarian endometriomas undergoing laparoscopic surgery. INTERVENTION(S) Endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) were cultured with IL-17F. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Concentrations of IL-8 were measured by a specific ELISA, and messenger RNA levels of IL-8 and COX2 were measured by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (PCR). RESULT(S) IL-17F increased the secretion of IL-8 from ESCs, and the effect was inhibited by antibodies for IL-17 receptor A and IL-17 receptor C. Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) synergistically enhanced IL-17F-induced increase in IL-8 secretion from ESCs. The IL-17F increased the gene expression of IL-8 and COX2 in ESCs. CONCLUSION(S) These findings suggest that IL-17F may stimulate the development of endometriosis by up-regulation of IL-8 and COX2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that is activated by several serine proteases. PAR2 activation in endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) has been implicated in the development of endometriosis but the regulatory mechanism of PAR2 expression in ESC is unknown. Our objective was to study the mechanism by which PAR2 expression may be regulated in endometriotic lesions. METHODS Primary cultures of ESCs were treated with transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) 1, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and the expression of PAR2 was examined by real-time quantitative PCR. ESCs pretreated with or without TGF-β1 were treated with PAR2 agonist peptide (PAR2AP) and the secretion of the pro-endometriotic cytokine, IL-6, was measured using a specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Effects of TGF-β type 1 inhibitor, SB431542, and PAR2 small interfering RNA (siRNA) on the TGF-β1 stimulation of PAR2 gene expression and PAR2AP-induced IL-6 secretion were also evaluated. To study intracellular signaling, effects of inhibitors of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and of Smad4 siRNA on the TGF-β1-induced PAR2 gene expression were studied. RESULTS Only TGF-β1, but neither TNF-α nor IL-1β, increased gene expression of PAR2. Activation of PAR2 with PAR2AP increased the secretion of IL-6 from ESCs. As expected, TGF-β1 pretreatment dose-dependently enhanced the PAR2AP-induced increase in IL-6 secretion from ESCs. Treatment of ESCs with the TGF-β type 1 inhibitor, SB431542, inhibited both TGF-β1-stimulation of PAR2 gene expression and PAR2AP-induced IL-6 secretion. Transfection of ESCs with PAR2 siRNA produced a similar inhibition of IL-6 secretion. The TGF-β1-induced increase in PAR2 gene expression was repressed by inhibition of p38 MAPK, p42/44 MAPK or PI3K, but not by knockdown of Smad4 expression. CONCLUSIONS In view of significant roles of PAR2 and IL-6 in endometriosis, the TGF-β1-induced increase in PAR2 expression may be an elaborate mechanism that augments the progression of the disease.

Abstract
In a novel paradigm of T cell differentiation, type 17 T helper (Th17) cells may play a significant role in endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory disease. However, the mechanism regulating the accumulation of Th17 cells in endometriotic tissues remains unknown. We hypothesized that Th17 cells migrate to endometriotic tissues through an interaction of the chemokine CC chemokine ligand (CCL)20 and its receptor CCR6. Using endometriotic tissues from women with endometriosis, we demonstrated, by flow cytometry, that Th17 cells in endometriotic tissues express CC chemokine receptor (CCR)6. Immunohistochemistry also revealed that CCL20 was expressed in the epithelial cells and stromal cells beneath the epithelium of endometriotic tissues. CCR6+ cells were small and round and scattered in the stroma in which abundant CCL20+ cells were detected. CCL20 caused selective migration of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood in a migration assay. IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-17A increased the secretion of CCL20 in cultured endometriotic stromal cells. Inhibitors of p38- and p42/44-MAPKs, and stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun kinase suppressed the secretion of CCL20 increased by IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-17A. This suggests that the CCL20/CCR6 system is involved in the migration of Th17 cells to endometriotic tissues and that proinflammatory cytokines contribute to the development of endometriosis via up-regulation of CCL20 secretion from endometriotic stromal cells.
