简要总结
OBJECTIVES :
- To investigate the expression pattern of miRNAs operational in inflammation, angiogenesis, hypoxia, apoptosis and cell proliferation in eutopic and ectopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis and normal endometrium of healthy controls.
- To understand the function of candidate predictive miRNAs for endometriosis by investigating their downstream targets and associated biological pathways.
- Evaluation of significant outcome of objective 1 in serum samples to establish them as biomarkers.
Study Design:
Case control study. sample size: 200
详细描述
METHODOLOGY :
1 Investigator will take Both blood and tissue samples used to study them. 2. Investigator will take approximately 3 ml of blood which will be used from the blood sample collected for routine preoperative tests (Surgical profile) before their planned surgery.
3.Small tissue samples will be taken from the tissue which is surgically excised as a part of treatment.
- It will include tissue from inner lining of uterus (endometrium) in all participants and from excised endometriosis tissue in patients with endometriosis.

结局指标
主要结局
2. To understand the function of candidate predictive miRNAs for endometriosis by investigating their downstream targets and associated biological pathways
时间窗: 3 years
ROC curve analysis is to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of miRNA expression levels to establish them as biomarkers for endometriosis.
次要结局
- To investigate the expression pattern of miRNAs and their downstream targets in endometrial tissues (samples of normal adult endometrium and ectopic and eutopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis)(3 years)
