The decrease in IL1R2 mRNA levels in eutopic endometrial tissue of endometriosis women, and the concomitant increase in IL1R1 mRNA levels in ectopic implants, reveal a profound defect in IL1R 1 and IL1R2 gene expression which may accentuate the capability of this tissue to respond to IL1 and favor its ectopic growth.

Our study showed an imbalance in the expression of IL1R1 and IL1R2 in eutopic, and particularly in ectopic, endometrial tissues of women with endometriosis.
Actually, a decreased IL1R2 expression is predominant in the eutopic and ectopic endometrium of women with endometriosis when compared with normal women, whereas a concomitant increase in IL1R1 expression occurs in ectopic endometrial tissue in comparison to eutopic endometrial tissue of normal or endometriotic women, particularly in the initial and most active implants.
Down-regulation of interleukin-1 receptor type 1 expression causes the dysregulated expression of CXC chemokines in endometriotic stromal cells: a possible mechanism for the altered immunological functions in endometriosis.
