Abstract:
Objective To investigate the significance of hypoxia inducible factor-1(HIF-1) expression in ovarian endometriosis (Oems). Methods Elivision Tm plus Immunohistochemical and Stereology methods were used to detect HIF-1 expression in 30 cases of ectopic endometrium, 30 cases of eutopic endometrium in ovarian endometriosis and 30 cases of endometrium in ovarian teratoma as the normal control. Quantitative images analysis was performed with the aid of computer to collect and analyze the mean optical density (MOD) of HIF-1 expression. Results The MOD values of HIF-1 in ectopic and eutopic endometrium of Oems and the normal control were 0. 077 ± 0. 014, 0. 070 ± 0. 013 and 0. 061 ± 0. 007 respectively, which showed significantly differences between each other groups(F = 37. 738, P ＜ 0. 01 ＝. HIF-1 expression in proliferative phase (0.076 ±0.007) of eutopic endometrium of Oems was significantly higher than that in secretary phase (0. 059 ±0. 014) (t = 6. 918 ,P ＜0. 01 ＝; which was also significantly higher than that of the normal control in the same phase (0.060±0.007) (t=-12.724,P ＜0.01 ＝.Conclusion HIF-1 may play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of Oems.
