Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to reconstitute normal and abnormal uterus in vivo through spatiotemporal intervention on uterine stem cells. First, we have developed a novel in vivo endometrial stem cell assay using a cell tracking method in combination with an endometrial reconstitution system, which reveals that endometrial side population (ESP) cells are the most likely candidate for endometrial stem cells. The stem cell-like properties of ESP cells suggest their involvement in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Second, we uncovered a paracrine role of the WNT/beta - Catenin pathway that enables mature myometrial or leiomyoma cells to send mitogenic signals to neighboring tissue stem cells in response to estrogen and progesterone,leading to the growth of uterine leiomyomas. Finally, we have developed decellularization and recellularization techniques for the rat uterus, generating structural and functional uterus in vitro and in vivo.
