タイトル Cyclic stretch augments production of neutrophil chemokines, matrix metalloproteinases, and activin a in human endometrial stromal cells.
ジャーナル Am J Reprod Immunol
Abstract PROBLEM:The aim of this study was to test our hypothesis: Contractile activity that occurs in the uterus during menstruation induces biochemical factors that enhance remodeling of the endometrium.
METHOD OF STUDY:Cyclic stretch, mimicking contractile activity during menstruation, was applied to human endometrial stromal cells (ESC) using the Flexercell Tension system. The concentration and activity of CXCL8, CXCL1, MMPs, and activin A were measured using ELISAs and specific assays. Neutrophil chemotactic activity was evaluated using migration assays.
RESULTS:Cyclic stretch significantly induced ESC secretion of CXCL8 and CXCL1 and neutrophil chemotaxis. Stretch also increased MMP-1, MMP-2, and MMP-3 activity, activin A secretion, and activity in ESC.
CONCLUSION:These results indicate that the contractile activities of the uterus during menstruation contribute to the remodeling of the endometrium, by inducing chemokine secretion, MMP expression, activity, and neutrophil chemotaxis.
