Abstract
Endometriosis (EMs) is a systemic and chronic disease with cancer-like feature, namely, distant implantation, which caused heavy healthy burden of nearly 200 million females. LncRNAs have been proved as new modulators in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and EMs. Quantitative real-time PCR was conducted to measure the expression level of long intergenic non-protein coding RNA, regulator of reprogramming (Linc-ROR), and miR-204-5p in ectopic endometrium (n = 25), eutopic endometrium (n = 20), and natural control endometrium (n = 22). Overexpression of Linc-ROR, knockdown or overexpression of miR-204-5p in End1/E6E7 and Ishikawa cells, was conducted to detect the function of Linc-ROR and miR-204-5p in EMs. Furthermore, luciferase reports were used to confirm the combination of Linc-ROR and miR-204-5p and the combination between miR-204-5p and SMAD4. Cell-Counting Kit-8, EdU assay, transwell assays, and Western blotting were used to detect the function of Linc-ROR and miR-204-5p in EMs cancer-like behaviors and EMT process. Linc-ROR was up-regulated in ectopic endometrium. Overexpressed Linc-ROR promotes cell proliferation, invasion, and EMT process. Linc-ROR regulated the EMT process, cellular proliferation, and invasion of EMs via binding to miR-204-5p. In addition, overexpression of Linc-ROR up-regulated SMAD4, a target protein of miR-204-5p, with which regulated EMT process and cancer-like behaviors in EMs together. Linc-ROR/miR-204-5p/SMAD4 axis plays a vital role in regulation EMT process in EMs, which might become a novel therapeutic targets and powerful biomarkers in EMs therapy.

[PMID: 34425902 PMCID: PMC8383353 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-021-02526-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2021] [Accepted: 07/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Endometrial stem/progenitor cells have been proved to exist in periodically regenerated female endometrium and can be divided into three categories: endometrial epithelial stem/progenitor cells, CD140b+CD146+ or SUSD2+ endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (eMSCs), and side population cells (SPs). Endometrial stem/progenitor cells in the menstruation blood are defined as menstrual stem cells (MenSCs). Due to their abundant sources, excellent proliferation, and autotransplantation capabilities, MenSCs are ideal candidates for cell-based therapy in regenerative medicine, inflammation, and immune-related diseases. Endometrial stem/progenitor cells also participate in the occurrence and development of endometriosis by entering the pelvic cavity from retrograde menstruation and becoming overreactive under certain conditions to form new glands and stroma through clonal expansion. Additionally, the limited bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMDSCs) in blood circulation can be recruited and infiltrated into the lesion sites, leading to the establishment of deep invasive endometriosis. On the other hand, cell derived from endometriosis may also enter the blood circulation to form circulating endometrial cells (CECs) with stem cell-like properties, and to migrate and implant into distant tissues. In this manuscript, by reviewing the available literature, we outlined the characteristics of endometrial stem/progenitor cells and summarized their roles in immunoregulation, regenerative medicine, and endometriosis, through which to provide some novel therapeutic strategies for reproductive and cancerous diseases.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors are dysregulated in endometriosis: possible implication in transforming growth factor β-induced fibrosis. Fertil Steril 2020; 115:501-511. [PMID: 32907751 DOI: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2020.08.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2020] [Revised: 08/06/2020] [Accepted: 08/06/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the molecular mechanisms involved in the appearance of the fibrotic trait in endometriosis by investigating whether the signaling pathway of the bioactive sphingolipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) was altered in endometriotic lesions. DESIGN Case-control laboratory study. SETTING University research institute and university hospital. PATIENT(S) A total of 75 women, with and without endometriosis, were included in the study. INTERVENTIONS(S) Endometrial samples were obtained from women affected (n = 15 endometrioma [OMA]; n = 30 deep infiltrating endometriosis [DIE]) and not (n = 30) by endometriosis by means of laparoscopic surgery, followed by clinical and imaging investigation and checking for the expression of fibrosis markers and genes implicated in S1P metabolism and signaling by means of real-time polymerase chain reaction. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) The role of the S1P signaling axis in endometriosis-associated fibrosis was studied in vitro, where RNA interference approaches were used to investigate if S1P synthesis by sphingosine kinases (SKs) and specific S1P receptors (S1PRs) are implicated in the profibrotic effect of the cytokine transforming growth factor (TGF) β1. RESULT(S) mRNA expression analysis of S1PR demonstrated a deep dysregulation of S1P signaling in endometriosis, characterized by increased expression of fibrosis markers: S1P1 was transcriptionally more expressed in OMA, and S1P3 and S1P5 mRNA levels were significantly augmented in both OMA and DIE. SK1 and its activating protein calcium- and integrin-binding protein 1 (CIB1) were significantly up-regulated in OMA and DIE. A crucial role for the SK/S1PR axis in the profibrotic effect elicited by TGFβ1 was highlighted in vitro. CONCLUSION(S) The S1P signaling axis may represent a useful biomarker or innovative pharmacologic target for endometriosis.

[PMID: 32524577 DOI: 10.1111/aogs.13931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2020] [Revised: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 06/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oocyte competence and quality depend on communication between the oocyte and the cumulus and theca cells. In the preantral phase, the members of the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) superfamily are responsible for this communication and play an important role in folliculogenesis. Members of the TGF-β superfamily are related to endometriosis (overexpression in the ectopic endometrium); however, few studies have explored these proteins as influencing fertility in endometriosis. Considering endometriosis-related infertility and to better understand the role of the TGF-β superfamily members in the antral phase in women with endometriosis, this research investigated the gene expression of the genes for ligands AMH, BMP-6, GDF-9, INHA, INHBB, and TGFβ3; receptors AMHR2, BMPR2, and TGFβR3; and intracellular signalling: SMAD3 and SMAD4. MATERIAL AND METHODS The gene expression of AMH, BMP-6, GDF-9, INHA, INHBB, TGFβ3, AMHR2, BMPR2, TGFβR3, SMAD3, and SMAD4 in cumulus cells was investigated through quantitative real-time PCR in a case-control study including infertile women with and without peritoneal endometriosis undergoing in vitro fertilization. RESULTS Age and outcomes of assisted reproduction were similar between the groups (P > .05). However, women with endometriosis showed reduced expression of BMP-6 and SMAD4 (P < .05) in cumulus cells compared with the control group, other genes did not present altered gene expression in women with endometriosis (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS The reduced expression of BMP-6 and SMAD4 in women with peritoneal endometriosis compared with the control group indicates that granulosa (cumulus) cell function could be altered in these women.

Cell Commun Signal 2019; 17:45. [PMID: 31101053 PMCID: PMC6525394 DOI: 10.1186/s12964-019-0361-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2019] [Accepted: 05/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Endometriosis, characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissues outside the uterus, is one of the most common gynecological disorders. Endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are crucial for the occurrence and development of endometriosis. Ectopic endometrial MSCs exist in the peritoneal cavity. Thus, the bioactive factors in endometriotic peritoneal fluid may regulate the biological behaviors of endometrial MSCs. Methods In this study, after assessing the concentration of Activin A in peritoneal fluid using ELISA, we isolated and cultured endometrial MSCs and investigated whether Activin A stimulated endometrial MSCs to differentiate into myofibroblasts and clarified the underlying mechanisms by quantitative real-time PCR, Western blot analysis, immunofluorescent staining, RNA interference and Chromatin immunoprecipitation. We also employed the inhibitors of Activin A to explore the possibility of suppressing the development of fibrosis in endometriosis using primary endometrial MSCs cultures and a mouse model of endometriosis. Results Here, we revealed that Activin A significantly elevated in endometriotic peritoneal fluid and activin receptor-like kinase (ALK4), the specific receptor for Activin A, obviously enhanced in ectopic endometrial MSCs compared with eutopic endometrial MSCs from women with or without endometriosis. Next, we found that Activin A drived myofibroblast differentiation of endometrial MSCs, with extremely enhanced expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). CTGF was shown to be required for Activin A-induced expression of ACTA2, COL1A1 and FN1 in endometrial MSCs. CTGF induction by Activin A in endometrial MSCs involved the activation of Smad2/3, as evidenced by the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of Smad2/3 as well as the binding of Smad2/3 to CTGF promoter. Furthermore, Smad/CTGF pathway in endometrial MSCs required activation of STAT3 while independent of PI3K, JNK and p-38 pathways. In addition, we also demonstrated that inhibition of Activin A pathway impeded myofibroblast differentiation of endometrial MSCs and ameliorated fibrosis in endometriosis mice. Conclusions Activin A promotes myofibroblast differentiation of endometrial mesenchymal stem cells via STAT3-dependent Smad/CTGF pathway. The results provided the first evidence that STAT3 acted as a crucial Activin A downstream mediator to regulate CTGF production. Our data may supplement the stem cell theory of endometriosis and provide the experimental basis to treat endometriosis-associated fibrosis by manipulating Activin A signaling.

Acta Histochem 2018; 120:757-767. [PMID: 30195499 DOI: 10.1016/j.acthis.2018.08.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2018] [Revised: 07/29/2018] [Accepted: 08/16/2018] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
The present prospective study was done to evaluate the effect of silymarin (SMN) on endometriotic-like legions establishment and growth in experimentally-induced endometriosis. For this purpose, the experimental endometriosis was induced in 12 rats and then the animals subdivided into endometriosis-sole and SMN (50 mg kg-1, orally)+endometriosis groups. Following 28 days, the legions establishment, size, Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), gfrα1, B Cell Lymphoma 6 (Bcl-6b), Bcl-2, extracellular regulator kinase (ERK1/2) expression ratios, angiogenesis, the apoptosis and fibrosis indices were investigated. The SMN significantly (P < 0.05) decreased the enometriotic-like legions establishment and size, decreased mRNA levels of GDNF, gfrα1, Bcl-6b and Bcl-2 and remarkably diminished GDNF, gfrα1, Bcl-6b and Bcl-2-positive cells distribution/mm2 of tissue versus endometriosis-sole group. The SMN + endometriosis group exhibited a significant (P < 0.05) enhancement in ERK1/2 expression and represented diminished vascularized area and increased apoptosis and fibrosis indices, as well. In conclusion, the SMN by down-regulating GDNF and its receptor gfrα1 expression inhibits GDNF-gfrα1 complex generation and consequently suppresses Bcl-6b expression. Moreover, the SMN by enhancing the ERK1/2 expression and by suppressing the Bcl-2 expression promotes the apoptosis pathway. Finally, the SMN by down-regulating the angiogenesis ratio accelerates apoptosis and consequently induces severe fibrosis in endometriotic-like legions.

Activin Receptor-Like Kinase 4 Haplodeficiency Mitigates Arrhythmogenic Atrial Remodeling and Vulnerability to Atrial Fibrillation in Cardiac Pathological Hypertrophy. J Am Heart Assoc 2018; 7:e008842. [PMID: 30369314 PMCID: PMC6201394 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.118.008842] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2018] [Accepted: 06/12/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Background Activin receptor-like kinase 4 ( ALK 4) is highly expressed in mammal heart. Atrial fibrillation ( AF ) is closely related to ventricular pressure overload. Because pressure overload increases atrial pressure and leads to atrial remodeling, it would be informative to know whether ALK 4 exerts potential effects on atrial remodeling and AF vulnerability in a pressure-overload model. Methods and Results Wild-type littermates and ALK 4+/- mice were subjected to abdominal aortic constriction or a sham operation. After 4 or 8 weeks, echocardiographic and hemodynamic measurements were performed, and inducibility of AF was tested. The hearts were divided into atria and ventricles and then were fixed in formalin for staining, or they were weighted and snap-frozen for quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analysis. Compared with wild-type littermates, ALK 4+/- mice demonstrated a similar extent of atrial hypertrophy but significantly suppressed atrial fibrosis at 8 weeks post-abdominal aortic constriction. ALK 4 haplodeficiency partially blocked abdominal aortic constriction-induced upregulation of monocyte chemotactic protein 1 and interleukin-6, and the increased chemotaxin of macrophages. ALK 4 haplodeficiency also blunted a reduction of connexin 40 and redistribution of connexin 43 from the intercalated disk to the lateral membranes, thereby improving localized conduction abnormalities. Meanwhile, ALK 4 haplodeficiency inhibited abdominal aortic constriction-induced decreased INa, ICa-L and IK1 densities as well as the accompanying action potential duration shortening. Mechanistically, ALK 4 haploinsufficiency resulted in the suppression of Smad2/3 activity in this model. Conclusions Our results demonstrate that ALK 4 haplodeficiency ameliorates atrial remodeling and vulnerability to AF in a pressure-overload model through inactivation of the Smad2/3 pathway, suggesting that ALK 4 might be a potential therapeutic target in combating pressure overload-induced AF .
