Abstract
Objective.To evaluate the expression of G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER1), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and heme oxygenase-2 (HO-2) in patients with chronic endometritis and to determine the importance of these markers in the diagnosis of the disease.Materials and methods.The results of GPER1, HO-1, and HO-2 expression were analyzed in patients with a confrmed diagnosis of chronic endometritis and in patients of the comparison group.Results.The expression of GPER1 ≤ 79 % (sensitivity — 100.00 %; specifcity — 95.83 %; +PV — 94.00 %; -PV — 100 %), the expression of HO-1 positive cells > 5 % (sensitivity — 100.00 %; specifcity -100%; +PV — 100 %; -PV — 100 %) are signifcant for the development of chronic endometritis. The endometrial glands in the patients with chronic endometritis express the markers of inflammation HO-1 and HO-2 signifcantly more often than in the comparison group (p < 0.001).Conclusion.The presented data indicate defects of the enzymes of iron metabolism and non-canonical pathways of estrogen reception in chronic endometritis. The determination of GPER1, HO-1, HO-2 expression in the endometrium in patients with chronic endometritis is a reliable criterion and may be used in the diagnosis of the disease.
