Abstract | OBJECTIVE: DESIGN: In vitro study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): Immortalized epithelial endometriotic cells. INTERVENTION(S): MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Western blot analysis and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were used to monitor the expression of GPER in response to drug treatment. Effects of GPER stimulation and inhibition on cell proliferation were investigated by the 93-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (Sigma) (MTT) assay. RESULT(S): Our results demonstrate that romidepsin and SAHA reduce GPER expression in a concentration-dependent manner. This reduction correlated with the accumulation of acetylated histones. No decreased expression of the estrogen receptor (ER)-α and ERβ was found under comparable experimental conditions. Pretreatment of endometriotic cells with the GPER agonist G-1 stimulated cell proliferation accompanied by rapid Akt phosphorylation. G-15 reversed this stimulation and inhibited cell proliferation, which was accompanied by Akt dephosphorylation. CONCLUSION(S):
