| Abstract: |
| Objective: To investigate the innate characters of 3 endometriosis (EMT) syndromes, blood stasis (BS), qi stagnation and blood stasis (QSBS) as well as Shen (Kidney) deficiency and blood stasis (KDBS) in terms of proteomics, lay a molecular biological basis for the differentiation of various blood stasis syndromes of EMT, establish a EMT microscopic syndrome differentiation and diagnosis system in terms of proteomics, discover the evolution principles and therapeutic targets of these EMT syndromes, and search their significant molecular markers and genetic intervention targets. Methods: Six specimens from the ectopic and entopic endometrium tissues of patients with EMT in each syndrome, BS, QSBS as well as KDBS, in the early proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle, and 6 specimens from normal endometrium tissues in the early proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle were obtained. Three groups were formed in each syndrome by mixing two random specimens in equal amount, and then their respective two-dimensional electrophoresis graphs were obtained after total protein extraction. Finally, the detected differences in protein expression were identified through matrix-assisted laser desorption Ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry
(MALDI-TOF/MS) and protein database. Results: The results of differential proteins expressed in each syndrome were shown as follows: BS syndrome had 2 differential proteins in entopic endometrium and 1 differential protein in ectopic endometrium; KDBS syndrome had 3 in entopic endometrium and 3 in ectopic endometrium; and QSBS syndrome had 3 in entopic endometrium and 4 in ectopic endometrium. It was found out that annexin was highly expressed in both entopic and ectopic endometrium of KDBS syndrome; and myosin light chain 3 was highly expressed in both entopic and ectopic endometrium of QSBS syndrome. Conclusion: There are differential protein expressions among the 3 EMT syndromes, which might be the inner origin of syndrome characters, and these differential proteins might be the candidate biomarkers for the pathogenesis of various EMT syndromes. |
