Collagen and Eosinophils in Jenny's Endometrium: Do They Differ With Endometrial Classification?

ABSTRACT: Collagen fibers and inflammatory cells are the basis for jenny endometrium Kenney and Doig's classification developed for the mare. The infiltration of a large number of eosinophils in the jenny endometrium is intriguing. Eosinophil and fibroblast produced IL33, which has been related to fibrosis development and chronicity. This work on the endometrium consisted of (i) quantification of collagen type I (COL1A2), type III (COL3A1), and IL33 transcripts; (ii) histological localization and quantification of COL1 and COL3 proteins; and (iii) eosinophil and neutrophil count and correlation with collagen area and IL33 transcripts. Localization of COL protein in the jenny endometrium was also compared to the mare endometrium. As fibrosis increased, eosinophil and neutrophil count decreased (P<
