dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: To evaluate structural alterations in rat endometrium at preimplantation following treatment with aspirin beginning from proestrus by light microscopy, electron microscopy and immunohistochemical techniques. STUDY DESIGN: Twenty rats were divided into control (n =10) and experimental (n =10) groups. Experimental rats were treated with low-dose aspirin daily (2 mg/kg/day) during estrus, beginning from the proestrus phase, mated at end of cycle and treated with aspirin. Untreated pregnant rats were the control group. Rats in both groups were sacrificed at the 84th pregnancy hour; the uterus was rapidly removed and dissected free of surrounding adipose tissue. Uteri specimensfrom nonpregnant rats were transferred into fixative solution and processed for light, electron microscopic and immunohistochemical study. RESULTS: Light and electron microscopy of endometrium from control rats conformed to mid-diestrus phase; endometrial histology of the aspirin-treated group conformed to late diestrus phase. The endometrial layer was significantly thicker in the aspirin-treated group compared to the untreated control group (p < 0.001). No significant difference was found in vessel number between groups. Staining with alpha V integrin was more dense in the aspirin-treated group. CONCLUSION: Based on histologic findings, we suggest low-dose aspirin has positive effects on preparing endometrium before implantation.en_US
