Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expressions and significances of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN),the matrix metalloproteinases-2,-9 (MMP-2,-9),and the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in endometriosis (EM). Methods The expressions of the EMMPRIN,MMP-2,MMP-9 and VEGF were detected by SABC immunohistochemistry in 57 tissue samples of ectopic endometrium and 51 samples of eutopic endometrium obtained from 57 EM patients,and in 48 normal endometrium from patients with non-endometriosis. Correlation analysis was carried out on the expressions of these proteins and pathologic staging. Results The EMMPRIN,MMP-2,MMP-9 and VEGF in ectopic endometrium were expressed at significantly higher levels (0.723?0.114,0.729?0.109,0.692?0.089,0.704?0.103,respectively) than those in eutopic endometrium group (0.396?0.097,0.365?0.023,0.349?0.030,0.370?0.129,respectively,P
