The aim of this study was to investigate the regulatory effect of sex steroids and HB-EGF on HOXA10 gene in Ishikawa cells. Ishikawa cells were incubated with 17-beta estradiol （10-8 mol/L）, medroxyprogesterone acetate （MPA） （10^-6 tool/L）, RU486 （10^-5 mol/L） or HB-EGF （10 ng/mL） for 48 h respectively. The expression of HOXA10 gene was detected by immunofluorescence reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR） and Western blotting. Our results showed that either estrogen alone, progestin alone or progestin combined with estrogen could significantly increase the expression of HOXA10 gene 48 h after the treatment （P〈0.05）. But estrogen combined with progestin and RU486 could inhibit the up-regulation by estrogen and progestin. HB-EGF could elevate the expression of HOXA10 gene 48 h after the treatment （P〈0.05）. It is concluded that both estrogen and progestin can up-regulate the expression of HOXA10 gene in lshikawa cells, but RU486 can inhibit the effect and HB-EGF can elevate the expression level of HOXA10 gene.展开更多
