Objective: To explore the effects of the combined E-2 with the environmental pollutant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) on CCR8-I-309 expression by the endometriotic lesion-associated cells in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.Design: Prospective laboratory study.Setting: University hospital.Patient(s): Chinese women with endometriosis.Intervention(s): The endometriotic tissue and matched eutopic endometrium were collected. Endometrial stromal cells (ESCs), HPMC, and U937 cells were treated with 17 beta-E-2 or TCDD. The ESCs were stimulated with I-309.Main Outcome Measure(S): The expression of CCR8 in tissues was analyzed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry. The effect of I-309 on integrin beta 1 and alpha v beta 03 expression intensity was analyzed by flow cytometry, and the chemotactic activity of I-309 on the ESC was explored by chemotactic assay. Concentration of I-309 in the culture supernatant was quantified by enzyme-linked immumosorbent assay.Result(s): CCR8 was overexpressed in the endometriotic tissue. I-309 promoted the expression of integrin beta 1. Estradiol and TCDD up-regulated CCR8 expression by ESCs. Estradiol magnified the stimulatory effect of TCDD on I-309 secretion by U937. The interaction of HPMC and U937 cells promoted I-309 secretion.Conclusion(s): These findings imply that the combination of 17 beta-E-2 with the environmental pollutant TCDD is involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis via up-regulating the chemokine CCR8 -I-309.
