Systematic review on the DNA methylation role in endometriosis: current evidence and perspectives
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis appears to have a multilayered etiology, with genetic and epigenetic factors each contributing half of the pathogenesis. The molecular processes that underlie the onset of endometriosis are yet unclear, but it is assumed that an important contributor in the etiopathology of the disease is DNA methylation. METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of the literature regarding DNA methylation in endometriosis following PRISMA guidelines. Records were obtained from PubMed and Web of Science on May 31, 2024. Original research articles analyzing regional or genome-wide DNA methylation in patients with confirmed endometriosis (by surgery and/or histological examination) were given consideration for inclusion. Only human studies were included, and there were no restrictions on the types of tissue that was analyzed (i.e., endometrium, blood, or fetal tissue). The study selection process was run by two manual reviewers. In parallel, an adapted virtual artificial intelligence-powered reviewer operated study selection and results were compared with the manual reviewers' selection. Studies were divided into targeted (e.g., single gene or region level) and epigenome-wide association studies. For each, we extracted a list of genes studied with precise location of CpGs analyzed and the DNA methylation status according to the groups compared. Quality assessment of studies was performed following the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Quality of evidence was graded following the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. RESULTS: A total of 955 studies were screened, and 70 were identified as relevant for systematic review. Our analyses displayed that endometriosis could be polyepigenetic and with alterations in specific genes implicated in major signaling pathways contributing to the disease etiopathology (cell proliferation, differentiation, and division [PI3K-Akt and Wnt-signaling pathway], cell division [MAPK pathway], cell adhesion, cell communication, developmental processes, response to hormone, apoptosis, immunity, neurogenesis, and cancer). CONCLUSION: Our systematic review indicates that endometriosis is associated with DNA methylation modifications at specific genes involved in key endometrial biological processes, particularly in the ectopic endometrium. As DNA methylation appears to be an integral component of the pathogenesis of endometriosis, the identification of DNA methylation biomarkers would likely help better understand its causes and aggravating factors as well as potentially facilitate its diagnosis and support the development of new therapeutic approaches.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
