BACKGROUND/AIM: Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), characterized by anovulation, hyperandrogenemia and polycystic ovaries, are still vulnerable to undergo recurrent pregnancy loss and premature labor even though the ovulatory process is pharmacologically recovered. However, its potential mechanism remains unknown. Thus, our aim was to investigate the effect and mechanism of hyperandrogenemia and flutamide (a non-steroidal anti-androgen) on the embryo implantation and pregnancy during mid-pregnancy.
METHODS: We used a mouse model in which PCOS-like hyperandrogenemia was induced by subcutaneous injection of testosterone propionate. In this model, we observed the effect of hyperandrogenemia and flutamide on the decidualization, angiogenesis and uNK cells by methods of immunohistochemistry, quantitative PCR, western blotting and Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) lectin staining.
RESULTS: Testosterone and flutamide treatment did not significantly influence the numbers of implanted embryo compared with the control group. However, different doses of testosterone significantly increased the ratio of resorbed /implanted embryo, decreased the level of prl8a2 mRNA and cyclin D3 protein, inhibited the uterine angiogenesis and reduced the numbers of uNK cells, but combined treatment with flutamide markedly decreased the resorbed embryos, increased expressions of prl8a2 mRNA and cyclin D3 protein and angiogenesis and numbers of uNK cells.
CONCLUSION: Flutamide treatment can efficiently ameliorate the hyperandrogenemia-induced the disorders in aspects of decidualization, angiogenesis and uNK cells, which further improve the poor endometrial receptivity in PCOS patients.
