Foxf2 and Smad6 co‐regulation of collagen 5A2 transcription is involved in the pathogenesis of intrauterine adhesion

Abstract: The replacement of normal endometrial epithelium by fibrotic tissue is the pathological feature of intrauterine adhesion (IUA), which is caused by trauma to the basal layer of the endometrium. COL5A2 is a molecular subtype of collagen V that regulates collagen production in fibrotic tissue. Here, we investigated the roles of Foxf2 and Smad6 in regulating the transcription of COL5A2 and their involvement in the pathogenesis of IUA. Small interference‐mediated Foxf2 (si‐Foxf2) silencing and pcDNA3.1‐mediated Sma… Show more

“…FOXF2, also a TGF β target, cooperated with TGF β signaling to promote ECM formation. FOXF2 downregulation and SMAD6 upregulation affected the phase transition from G0/G1 to S, induced by TGF β 1 in vitro and decreased the number of endometrial fibroids encoded by COL5A2 in vivo ( Chen et al, 2020 ).…”

“…IUA presents a challenge to the endometrial model of scar-free wound healing, as it would appear that several postulated mechanisms that allow for scar-free regeneration and repair are lost, including hypoxic injury, unbalanced inflammatory processes, decreased angiogenesis, the disturbance of immune and molecular mechanisms, an unregulated EMT, aberrant myofibroblast differentiation, bizarre stem cell regeneration, and interrupted normal endometrial cell proliferation [ 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 ]. However, evidence has shown the presence of distinct genetic profiles between patients with and without IUA, suggesting that IUA might not just be a representative of an iatrogenic disease, but also the result of a genetic predisposition [ 72 ].…”

“…Many strategies or principles for decreasing the risk of developing IUA, such as the reduced use of electrosurgery and the minimization of trauma to the healthy endometrium and myometrium, have been proposed [ 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 ]. Additionally, many biomaterial agents, barrier methods, and cell or bio-agent therapies have been applied [ 14 , 16 , 24 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 35 , 37 , 40 , 43 , 44 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 ]. Figure 3 shows the recent development of agents available for the primary prevention of IUA after uterine surgery.…”

“…Dilatation and curettage (D&C), a primary risk factor for IUA, causes damage to the basal layer of the endometrium, thereby leading to endometrial fibrosis, in which fibrous tissues replace stromal tissues and is accompanied by a decrease in or disappearance of glands. As a result, the uterine cavity and/or the cervical canal become partially or completely obliterated [ 3 ]. According to reports, 36–53 million pregnancies worldwide are terminated yearly, of which approximately 90% occur in the first trimester [ 4 ].…”
