The paper aimed to develop and determine the effectiveness of an experimental rat model of endometriosis in virgin, nulliparous adult female rats (23 Wistar females, 14–17 weeks old, 170–200 g). Using approved animal-bioethics procedures, the authors developed and adapted a model for clinical experimental studies and assessed whether ectopic endometrial tissue became viable and functionally active. They report that the ectopic endometrium in the model was viable and showed functional activity, supporting the model’s validity and suitability for further research. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on developing and validating an experimental endometriosis model in rats.

Abstract

An experimental model of endometriosis on white mature rats has been developed andadapted for clinical experimental studies.Objective. Development and determination of the effectiveness of the experimental modelof endometriosis on white female rats.All manipulations with animals were performed in accordance with the recommendationsof the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee on Bioethics (IGBC).Material and methods. The experiment involved 23 adult non-linear non-linear whiteRattus Norvegicus Wistar female rats weighing 170-200 g, which had not yet given birthat the age of 14-17 weeks.Conclusions. Studies have shown the viability and functional activity of the ectopicendometrium experimental model which indicates its validity and the possibility of use infurther research.

Матеріал і методи. В експерименті взяли участь 23 статевозрілі нелінійні білі щури Rattus Norvegicus Wistar жіночої статі масою 170-200 г, які ще не народжували, віком 14-17 тижнів. Усі маніпуляції з тваринами виконано відповідно до рекомендацій Міжурядового комітету з біоетики UNESCO (IGBC). Результати. Розроблено та адаптовано для клінічних експериментальних досліджень експериментальну модель ендометріозу на білих статевозрілих щурах. Висновки. Проведені дослідження засвідчують про життєздатність та функціональну активність ектопічного ендометрію експериментальної моделі, що вказує на її валідність та можливість використання під час подальших досліджень.
