Abstract:
The concentrations of prostaglandin in high mobility group box-1 ( HMGB1 ) and highsensitive C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) in serum and peritoneal fluid were detected in 76 patients with endometriosis (study group) and 30 patients without endometriosis (ovary cysts or uterine myoma, as control group). The peritoneal fluids were collected during laparoscopic operation, and the serum samples were collected before surgery. The HMGB1 and Hs-CRP concentrations in serum and peritoneal fluid of study group were significantly higher than those of control group, ( 8. 2 ± 0. 8) mg/L vs. (2. 1 ±. 0. 2) mg/L、 ( 14. 4 ±3.0) mg/L vs. (4.5 ±2.3) mg/L (both P＜0. 01);HMGB1 and Hs-CRP levels in serum and peritoneal fluid of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ endometriosis were significantly higher than those of stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ, ( 9. 2 ± 0. 8) mg/L vs.(6.7 ±0.7) mg/L,(18.7 ±2.9) mg/L vs. (11.2 ±2. 8) mg/L,(6.5 ±0.6) mg/L vs. (3.4 ±0.5) mg/L,(8.4 ±2.7) mg/L vs. (5.4 ±2.4) mg/L (all P ＜0.05). The concentrations of HMGB1 were positively correlated with Hs-CRP in endometriosis group (r =0. 72, P ＜0. 01 ). The results indicate that concentrations of HMGB1 and Hs-CRP may be of value in assessing the severity of endometrosis.
