| Research Abstract |
Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis identified numerous aberrant hypermethylated and hypomethylated CpGs present in endometrial stromal cells from chocolate cyst. Taken together with the result of transcriptome, some sets of genes are associated with pathogenesis of endometriosis. Principal component analysis indicated different DNA methylation profile in chocolate cyst cells, whereas transciptome could not. These findings imply the significance of genome wide DNA methylation analysis rather than transcriptome analysis to clarify development and characterization of endometriosis.
