Abstract in Portuguese
Em roedores, o aumento da permeabilidade vascular, a transformação decidual, e angiogênese são eventos cruciais para o sucesso da gestação. O fator endotelial vascular (VEGF) é um mitogênico para células endoteliais e um indutor de angiogênese. O VEGF age via dois receptores da família das tirosina quinases: VEGFR1 e VEGFR2. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar usando o método imunohistoquímico, a expressão espacial e temporal do VEGF e os receptores VEGFR1 e VEGFR2 em células endometriais de camundongo entre o 4º e 8º dias de gestação. No 4º dia de gestação, VEGF, VEGFR1 e VEGFR2 foram expressos pelo epitélio luminal e glandular e fracamente pelo estroma endometrial. Do 5º ao 8º dias de gestação, o VEGF foi expresso nas células deciduais mesometriais. VEGFR1 e VEGFR2 foram expresso pelas células do epitélio luminal e glandular e mostraram uma marcação diferencial na decídua mesometrial e antimesometrial. Os receptores VEGFR1 e VEGFR2 foram intensamente expressos pelas células endoteliais dos capilares sinusóides mesometriais e pelas células Nk uterinas.

Abstract in English
In rodents, increase of vascular permeability, decidual cell transformation, and uterine angiogenesis are crucial events for the success of pregnancy. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a mitogen for endothelial cells and an inducer of angiogenesis. VEGF acts via two tyrosine kinase family receptors: VEGFR1 and VEGFR2. The aim of this study was to investigate using the immunohistochemical method, the spatiotemporal expression of VEGF and its receptors VEGFR1 e VEGFR2 by mouse endometrial cells on days 4 to 8 of pregnancy. On day 4, VEGF, VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 were expressed mostly by the luminal and glandular epithelium. Stromal cells showed a very weak labeling. On days 5-8, VEGF and its receptors showed an increased labeling throughout the mesometrial decidua. The expression of VEGF, VEGFR1, and VEGFR2 were differentially expressed in the mesometrial cells and in the predecidual cells of the antimesometrial decidua. VEGFR1 and VEGF R2 were highly expressed by endothelial cells of the mesometrial sinusoids, and Nk uterine cells.
