Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to reveal relationship between environmental factors and genetic factors in endometrial cancer survivors. We recruited clinical informations and samples from menopause clinic, Keio University Hospital, Tokyo, Japan. Our results revealed 1)Hypertriglyceridemia was statistically more frequent in patients who had undergone bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy both before and after menopause than in the corresponding non-endometrial cancer controls, 2) Osteoporosis was associated with hypertriglyceridemia in post-menopausal women without endometrial cancer, but was less frequent in endometrial cancer survivors with hypertriglyceridemia, and 3) No significant association was found between osteoporosis and polymorphisms in ESR1, UGT2B17, or UGT1A1 in both groups, suggesting that BSO might be a more significant physiological factor in influencing bone mass density compared to genetic variations.
