[Abstract]
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect and mechanism of polydatin on intrauterine adhesions (IUA)in rats. Methods Eight rats were randomly selected as the sham operation group from 40 fertile female SD rats, and the remaining 32 rats were given intrauterine mechanical injury combined with lipopolysaccharide infection to induce IUA model. The 32 model rats were randomly divided into model group,low-,medium- and high- dose groups of polydatin,with 8 rats in each group,and the corresponding intervention lasted for 14 days. The morphological structure of endometrium was observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining,the thickness of endometrium was measured and the number of endometrial glands was counted. Masson staining was used to observe endometrial fibrosis; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-6 in endometrial tissue. Western Blot was used to detect the ptotein expressions of key proteins of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway,including β-catenin,glycogen synthase kinase 3β(GSK-3β),phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase 3β(p-GSK-3β),Cyclin D1,and fibrosis-related proteins,including transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1),α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA), type I collagen(ColⅠ)and type Ⅲ collagen(Col Ⅲ). Results Compared with the sham operation group,the endometrial tissue of rats in the model group and the low-,medium- and high- dose groups of polydatin showed different degrees of pathological damage,the thickness of the endometrium and the number of glands decreased, and there were obvious different degrees of collagen fiber deposition. The levels of TNF- α,IL-1β,IL-6,the relative protein expressions of β -catenin, Cyclin D1 and the activation level of GSK-3β protein, the relative protein expressions of TGF- β1, α -SMA, Col Ⅰ and Col Ⅲ in endometrial tissue were increased(P<0.05). Compared with the model group,the pathological damage of endometrial tissue in the low-,medium- and highdose groups of polydatin was improved,the endometrial thickness and the number of glands were increased,and the endometrial fibrosis was alleviated. In addition,the levels of the above indicators in the endometrial tissue were decreased(P<0.05)in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion Polydatin can promote endometrial repair and inhibit excessive endometrial fibrosis in rats with IUA,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of Wnt/ β-catenin signaling pathway activation.
