OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappa B) on the myocardin-mediated differentiation of hysteromyoma cells. @@@ MATERIALS AND METHODS: Expression levels of myocardin in hysteromyoma cells from patients with hysteromyoma were detected. Normal uterine smooth muscle cells were used as control group. Overexpression of myocardin in hysteromyoma cells was achieved through lentivirus infection. Changes in expression levels of uterine smooth muscle cell maker p21, p57, Cyclin D1, PCNA, SM22a, and aSMA were detected. Hysteromyoma cells with lentivirus infection were stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and changes in expression levels of myocardin were detected. @@@ RESULTS: Compared with normal uterine smooth muscle cells, the expression level of myocardin in hysteromyoma cells was extremely low, or even undetectable, and expression levels of smooth muscle cell differentiation markers were also minimal, and cells were in the de-differentiated state. Expression of exogenous myocardin can improve the expression of smooth muscle cell differentiation markers to induce cell re-differentiation. LPS stimulation can activate NF-kappa B to inhibit myocardin expression. thereby inducing cell dedifferentiation. @@@ CONCLUSIONS: NF-kappa B can inhibit the differentiation of hysteromyoma cells by decreasing the expression level of myocardin.
