چکیده

BACKGROUND Interleukin 1 (IL1) plays an important role in the physiology of human endometrium and is recognized as a major and early embryonic signal. Tight control over the local endometrial action of this cytokine is critical for normal reproductive functions. The coordinated regulation of IL1 receptors types I and II (IL1R1 and IL1R2) and IL1 receptor antagonist (IL1RA) in endometrial cells may represent one of the principle mechanisms involved in the control of IL1 local effects. The objective of this study was to investigate the regulation of IL1Rs in human endometrial epithelial cells in response to IL1. METHODS Cultures of KLE endometrial epithelial cell line and primary human endometrial epithelial cells, immunofluorescent staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, western blotting, nuclear transcription (run-on) and real-time PCR were used to investigate the expression of IL1R1, IL1R2 and IL1RA. RESULTS Cells appeared to react to IL1 by up-regulating the expression of the signaling activating IL1R1 and to moderate in parallel IL1 effects by elevating the expression of the decoy inhibitory IL1R2 and the receptor antagonist IL1RA. Regulation of IL1R1 and IL1RA by IL1B involved gene transcription activation and that of IL1R2 involved mRNA stabilization. CONCLUSION Considering IL1's immunomodulatory, proangiogenic and tissue remodeling properties, and its role as an embryonic signal, modulation of endometrial cell responsiveness to IL1 via the concomitant regulation of its own activating and inhibitory receptors and receptor antagonist may represent an important regulatory mechanism of IL1-induced physiological changes occurring in the human endometrium during the normal menstrual cycle and embryo development.

I-34: Steroid Hormone Signalling at the FetomaternalInterface

Background: Progesterone is indispensable for differentiation of human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) into decidual cells, a process that critically controls embryo implantation. However, HESCs also abundantly express androgen receptors (AR), yet the role of this member of the superfamily of ligand-dependent transcription factors in the decidual process remains poorly elucidated. Materials a...

BACKGROUND The elucidation of the molecular mechanisms by which the embryo contributes to its implantation is an area of extensive research. The main objective of this study was to investigate the pattern of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) secretion by human endometrial epithelium, and their regulation by human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and other growth factors pres...

Background: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy however, mechanisms underlying its pathogenesis remain obscure. Endometrial carcinoma has been classified into two major categories: type I (related to estrogen or endometrioid adenocarcinoma) and type II (unrelated to estrogen). Estrogen is the main trigger for the abnormal proliferation in the endometrial epithel...

Imbalance in the expression of the activating type I and the inhibitory type II interleukin 1 receptors in endometriosis.

BACKGROUND The ectopic establishment and progression of endometrial tissue is dependent upon its interaction with and responsiveness to the stimuli present in its new environment. Immune cell-derived cytokines, such as interleukin 1 (IL1), may alone or in concert with estrogens enhance the capability of ectopic endometrial cells to implant and develop into the host tissue. The objective of this...
