OCT-4 expression in follicular and luteal phase endometrium: a pilot study
BACKGROUND The stem cell marker Octamer-4 (OCT-4) is expressed in human endometrium. Menstrual cycle-dependency of OCT-4 expression has not been investigated to date. METHODS In a prospective, single center cohort study of 98 women undergoing hysteroscopy during the follicular (n = 49) and the luteal (n = 40) phases of the menstrual cycle, we obtained endometrial samples. Specimens were inves...
متن کاملHaemoglobin expression in human endometrium.
BACKGROUND The general concept that haemoglobin is only a carrier protein for oxygen and carbon dioxide is challenged since recent studies have shown haemoglobin expression in non-erythroid cells and the protection of haemoglobin against oxidative and nitrosative stress. Using microarrays, we previously showed expression of haemoglobins alpha, beta, delta and gamma and the haeme metabolizing en...
متن کاملP-106: Comparative Expression of The Stemness Gene Oct-4, Nanog, Sox-2 and Rex-1 in Normal Endometrium and in Endometriosis
Background Endometriosis is a gynecological disease defined as the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, which caused by various factors. Recent evidences support the presence of endometrial stem cells and their possible involvement in endometriosis. Related studies mainly focus on stemness-related genes, and pluripotency markers may play a role in the etiology of endometri...
متن کاملOct-4 mRNA and protein expression during human preimplantation development.
The transcription factor OCT-4 is regarded as a critical factor in controlling mammalian early embryonic development because of its role in toti-/pluripotency. In human preimplantation embryos, OCT-4 studies are limited to RNA analysis of abnormally developing embryos. This study thoroughly investigated the expression pattern of OCT-4 throughout the human preimplantation development. Expression...
متن کاملExpression of melanocortin receptors in human endometrium
STUDY QUESTION Are melanocortin receptors (MCR1-5) expressed in the endometrium? SUMMARY ANSWER MCR1-5 are expressed in endometrium to varying degrees, with MC2R, MC3R and MC5R being the most abundant and the majority of expression being observed in glandular epithelium. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Women with Addison's disease who were being administered synthetic ACTH reported menstrual complica...
