| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
iTRAQ-based proteomics demonstrated that VCAM-1 was one of the increased membrane proteins of endometrial stromal cell of ovarian endometrial cyst (eESC) in comparison of normal eutopic endometrial stromal cells. Immunohistochemistry of endometriotic cyst and normal uterus showed comparative result. At eESC, VCAM-1 was regulated by nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). Adhesion of endometrial cell to peritoneal wall is one of the favored mechanisms of arising endometriosis. VCAM-1 neutralizing antibody and IKK inhibitor, which inhibits NF-κB activation, decreased adhesive activity of eESC to human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMC). In conclusion, VCAM-1 is the novel therapeutic target of endometriosis, and VCAM-1 neutralizing antibody and IKK inhibitor is potent therapeutic drug of endometriosis.
