dc.description.abstract | Objective: Montelukast, a selective antagonist of Type 1 cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (CysLT(1)Rs), antagonizes the proinflammatory and proasthmatic activities of CysLT(1)Rs. We investigated the effect of montelukast on a surgically induced endometriosis rat model. Study design: Thirty-two sexually mature, cycling, female Wistar-Albino rats, in which endometriotic implants were surgically induced, were randomly divided into three groups. Group I [Montelukast (M), 10 rats)] was given 1.6 mg/kg/day of oral montelukast sodium. Group II [Leuprolide acetate (L), 11 rats] was given 1 mg/kg single dose of s.c.leuprolide acetate. Group III [Control (C), 11 rats] received saline solution through an orogastric tube and served as controls. After a 3-weeks medication, the rats were sacrificed to investigate the endometriotic implants for size and morphological and histological characteristics, including immunoreactivity of MMP-2 and VEGF. Results: The mean area of implants decreased from 48.2 +/- 24.7 to 293 +/- 15.8 mm(2) in Group I (M) (P = 0.008) and from 62 +/- 32.1 to 39.9 +/- 18.1 mm(2) in Group II(L) (P = 0.003). In Group III (C), the mean area increased from 41.1 +/- 31.1 to 60.4 +/- 37.1 mm(2) (P = 0.025). Histopathological analysis showed statistically significant lower scores in rats treated with montelukast compared to leuprolide and controls. MMP H scores were not different between the groups in both epithelial and stromal MMP-2 immunostaining. VEGF H scores were statistically lower in Group I (M) in epithelial VEGF immunostaining when compared to Group II(L) and Group III (C) (P = 0.006). Conclusion(s): Montelukast may effectively cause a significant decrease in the area of endometriotic implants. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved. | en_US |
