Summary |
Endometriosis is one of the most common causes of chronic pelvic pain and infertility that affects 10% of women of reproductive age. It is currently defined as the presence of endometrial epithelial and stromal cells at ectopic sites; however, advances in endometriosis research have some authors believing that endometriosis should be re-defined as “a fibrotic condition in which endometrial stroma and epithelium can be identified”. microRNAs (miRNAs) are regulatory molecules that potentially play a role in endometriotic lesion development. There is evidence that suggests that miRNAs, including microRNA-21 (miR-21), participate in fibrotic processes in different organs, including the heart, kidney, liver and lungs. The objective of this study was to understand the role of miR-21 and the mechanisms that can contribute to the development of fibrosis by determining how IL-6 regulates miR-21 expression and how this miRNA regulates the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signaling pathway to promote fibrosis. We investigated the expression of miR-21 in the baboon and mouse model of endometriosis and its correlation with fibrosis. We demonstrated that inflammation and fibrosis are present at a very early stage of endometriosis and that the inflammatory environment in the peritoneal cavity, which includes interleukin 6 (IL-6), can regulate the expression of miR-21 in vitro and in vivo.

Overall design |
Total RNA was extracted from the endometrium and endometriotic lesions from baboons with induced endometriosis for 15 months (n = 16) or spontaneous disease (n = 8). Small-RNA library preparation and high-throughput sequencing generated an average of 8.9 million reads per sample. Quality and adapter-trimmed reads (Trim Galore v0.3.3) were mapped to human miRNAs from miRbase (release 22) using the miRDeep2 (v0.0.7) pipeline. Differential expression analysis was conducted with edgeR (v3.22.5) using the edgeR-robust method.
