To investigate the effect of cadmium (Cd) contamination on endometrial function, human endometrial stromal cells were isolated and cultured with E(2) plus P in the presence of Cd, a major contaminant in cigarette smoke, and assayed for PRL concentrations and its messenger RNA expression. Cd significantly increased PRL concentrations in the culture media and significantly up-regulated PRL messenger RNA expression of the endometrial stromal cells, suggesting that Cd stimulates decidualization of the endometrium and may disrupt endometrial environment, causing early decidualization.
为研究镉(Cd)污染对子宫内膜功能的影响,分离人子宫内膜基质细胞,并在香烟烟雾中的主要污染物Cd存在的情况下,用雌二醇(E₂)加孕酮(P)进行培养,检测催乳素(PRL)浓度及其信使核糖核酸(mRNA)表达。Cd显著增加了培养基中的PRL浓度,并显著上调了子宫内膜基质细胞的PRL信使核糖核酸表达,表明Cd刺激子宫内膜蜕膜化,可能破坏子宫内膜环境,导致早期蜕膜化。
