ABSTRACT
Objective To detect the protein expression of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and its receptor (GnRH-R) in various endometrial tissues, and to investigate its significance. Methods Immunohistochemistry was employed to analyse the protein expression and localization of GnRH and GnRH-R from endometriosis(EMS), endometrial hyperplasia, endometrial carcinoma and control group. Results GnRH and GnRH-R are expressed at the protein level in all eutopic endometrium, in 50% ectopic endometrium and 92.3% endometrial hyperplasia, while the expressional rate in endometrial carcinoma are 58.8% and 82.4%, respectively. The majority of GnRH and GnRH-R existed in the plasma of glandular epithelium cells and some stroma cells. Conclusions There exists GnRH and its receptor proteins in endometrial tissues, and their abundant expression in endometriosis, endometrial hyperplasia and in endometrial carcinoma may imply that they could be used in clinical diagnosis and treatment.
