To evaluate FTO concentrations in follicular fluid (FF) of women with ovarian endometriosis (OE) and controls women without OE undergoing fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET).
FTO concentrations in FF were measured in 74 patients (37 in the control group and 37 in the OE group) by ELISA. We measured the expression of FTO in GCs of 40 patients (19 in the control group and 21 in the OE group) by RT-qPCR. The level of mA in GCs was measured in 20 patients (10 in the control group and 10 in the OE group) by colorimetry.
Compared with the control group, FTO concentrations in FF (6.92 ± 0.44 5.67 ± 0.40 ng/ml) ( <.05) and FTO mRNA level in GCs of OE group were decreased significantly ( <.05), and the level of mA was increased (0.21 ± 0.01 0.17 ± 0.03 ng) ( >.05).
The FTO concentrations in FF of infertility women with OE are decreased, which may be related to the impaired oocyte quality in endometriosis patients.
评估卵巢子宫内膜异位症（OE）患者和接受体外受精-胚胎移植（IVF-ET）的无 OE 对照组女性卵泡液（FF）中的 FTO 浓度。
通过 ELISA 测量 74 名患者（对照组 37 名，OE 组 37 名）FF 中的 FTO 浓度。通过 RT-qPCR 测量 40 名患者（对照组 19 名，OE 组 21 名）GC 中 FTO 的表达。通过比色法测量 20 名患者（对照组 10 名，OE 组 10 名）GC 中的 mA 水平。
与对照组相比，OE 组 FF 中的 FTO 浓度（6.92±0.44 vs. 5.67±0.40ng/ml）（<.05）和 GC 中的 FTO mRNA 水平显著降低（<.05），而 mA 水平升高（0.21±0.01 vs. 0.17±0.03ng）（>.05）。
OE 不孕女性 FF 中的 FTO 浓度降低，这可能与子宫内膜异位症患者卵子质量受损有关。
