A prerequisite for implantation in humans is differentiation
(decidualization) of stromal cells in the endometrium, believed to be
stimulated by progesterone (P) and/or cAMP. In the current study,
advances in microarray technology have allowed us to investigate genes
differentially expressed in human endometrial stromal cells
decidualized in vitro in response to P or cAMP, compared to
non-decidualized cells. Endometrial stromal cells were isolated from
endometrial biopsy tissue and cultured without steroid hormones, with 1
µM P (after E2 priming), or 1 mM 8-bromo-cAMP. Total RNA
was isolated and reverse transcribed to synthesize
32P-labeled cDNA probes using primers corresponding to
genes represented on the Clontech Human Atlas cDNA Expression Array.
After hybridization, signals were quantified by phosphor imaging
densitometry and were normalized to GAPDH and ubiquitin. Of the 588
genes screened, marked upregulation was observed of cytokines, growth
factors, nuclear transcription factors, members of the cyclin family,
and mediators of the cAMP signal transduction pathway. Additional mRNAs
expressed unexpectedly and regulated by P and cAMP, include the insulin
receptor, some neurotransmitter receptors, neuromodulators, the FSH
receptor, inhibin/activin ßA subunit, inhibin
, and
TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). Expression of previously
unrecognized genes regulated in decidualized human endometrial stromal
cells suggests mechanisms not yet appreciated in the endometrium during
decidualization. In addition, marked upregulation of cytokines,
chemokines, growth factors, apoptosis modulators, and their receptors
in decidualized stromal cells supports a major role for paracrine
interactions between the stroma and other endogenous and transient cell
populations within the endometrium and during early pregnancy.
