Abstract

Objective. To analyze the endometrial expression profile of the growth factor and cytokine genes during the window implantation in chronic endometritis in infertile patients. Subjects and methods. A study group included 39 women with histologically verified chronic endometritis, who planned their treatment using the intro fertilization (IVF) program (Group 1). A comparison group consisted of 39 women with tuboperitoneal infertility without chronic endometritis, who planned their treatment with the intro fertilization (IVF) program (Group 2). The expression of the IGFBP-1, VEGF, IL-15, and IL-18 genes during the implantation window that corresponded to the day of the menstrual cycle of luteinizing hormone + 7 was analyzed. Results. Group 1 patients with chronic endometritis showed 3.4-, 1.5-, 1.5-, and 1.4-fold decreases in the gene expression of IGFBP-1, IL-15, VEGFA, and IL-18 mRNA, respectively. Conclusion. In women with chronic endometritis during the implantation window in the lining of the uterus level of expression of mRNA genes important for successful implantation: IGFBP1, VEGFA, IL15, IL18, is decreased.
