The objective of the present study was to analyze MIS/AMH type II receptor (MIS/AMHRII) protein and mRNA expression in healthy human endometria compared with patients with endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer, providing a foundation for MIS/AMH as a biological modifier for treatment of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer.
These transcriptome analyses support previous observations that MIS functions as a tumor suppressor, potentially by regulating signaling pathways that could contribute to endometrial carcinogenesis, and indicating that MIS should be considered as a potential treatment for endometrial cancer.
