PURPOSE: To evaluate COX-2 and Nrf2/GPx3 expressions in the lamina propria of the anterior vaginal wall tissues of women with and without pelvic organ prolapse (POP).
METHODS: Tissue samples of anterior vaginal wall were examined using HE staining, immuohistochemical staining and Western blot for the expressions of COX-2/PGE2, Nrf2/GPx3, MMP2, TIMP1, collagen I and collagen III (n = 35, per group).
RESULTS: Compared with control group, collagen fibers of the anterior vaginal wall were disorganized and discontinuous. Expressions of Nrf2, GPx3, TIMP1, collagen I and collagen III were found significantly lower in POP group (P < 0.05); while, expressions of COX-2, PGE2, and MMP2 were found significantly higher in POP group (P < 0.05). Statistically significant correlations of COX-2 and Nrf2/GPx3 were showed (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: We found that the interaction between inflammation and oxidative stress was closely related to the development of POP. This study demonstrates that COX-2 and Nrf2 pathways may be involved in pathogenesis of POP, as promising potential therapeutic targets and agents.
