Expression of E2A in mid-secretory endometrium of women suffering from recurrent miscarriage.
E2A is involved in promoting forkhead box P3 (FOXP3) and retinoid-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt) gene transcription, which are pivotal transcription factors of T regulatory cells and Th17 cells, respectively. Little is known about the involvement of E2A in pregnancy process. This study aimed to investigate the expression of E2A, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), and Foxp3 in luteal phase endometrium of women suffering recurrent miscarriage (RM) (n=21) and control group (n=11) by immunohistochemistry, with the Vectra® automated quantitative pathology imaging system for analysis. The percentage of E2A+ cells and CTLA-4+ cells was significantly higher in the endometrium of women with RM than in the controls. There was positive correlation between E2A and CTLA-4 (r=0.523, P=0.002), E2A and FOXP3 (r=0.380, P=0.032), and FOXP3 and CTLA-4 (r=0.625, P=0.000) in the mid-secretory phase of endometrium for all subjects. It was concluded that the abnormal expression of endometrial E2A existed in mid-secretory endometrium of women with RM, and there was a positive correlation between E2A and FOXP3, and E2A and CTLA-4, suggesting the possible regulation role of E2A involved in regulating endometrium receptivity.
