描述

一般說明

Endometriosis is a gynecologic condition that is characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. This condition affects approximately 6-10% of all women and can lead to significant pelvic pain and infertility. The limited availability of in vitro models hinders cellular, molecular, and pathophysiologic studies of endometriosis which translates to poor understanding of the disease and limited available treatments.
Several endometriotic cell lines were developed by researchers from Goethe University Frankfurt in Germany. One of these is the 12Z cell line which was derived from the endometrial peritoneum of a 37 year-old female undergoing laparoscopy. The 12Z cell line was immortalized using SV40 plasmid transfection. This cell line expresses both pan-cytokeratin and N-Cadherin.
One of the frequently-studied means for the initiation of endometriosis is retrograde menstruation that permits the deposition of endometrial tissues outside of the uterus. During this process, the invasive capabiity of cells is believed to be essential.
The 12Z immortalized human endometrial epithelial cell line is an established model for endometriosis as it is derived from endometriotic tissue that is positive for N-Cadherin+, a marker for invasiveness. This makes the 12Z iine a suitable model for the study of disease progression or therapeutic development. The 12Z cell line is frequently used in 2D or 3D invasion assays, as well as in biochemical assays to study the pathophysiology of endometriosis.
