Introduction: Endometriosis is an inflammatory-related reproductive age disease characterized by the presence of endometrial cells outside the uterine cavity. Current laboratory practice does not provide specific markers for detecting and assessing the advancement of endometriosis in either plasma or peritoneal fluid. The severity of disease is assessed in stages from I to IV based on the results of laparoscopic inspection. The protein annexin A2 (ANXA2) has been reported to be associated with inflammatory processes. Aim of the Study: The study aimed to investigate and compare ANXA2 protein concentration using the ELISA method in plasma and peritoneal fluid in a group of women with endometriosis compared to controls. Materials and Methods: Biological material was collected during a multicenter, cross-sectional study, which was conducted at eight departments during elective laparoscopy from 53 women with and 40 women without endometriosis. Patients were divided by endometriosis stage and infertility status, and then compared with subgroups. Analysis included the Chi-square test for categorical variables, Mann-Whitney U-test and two-sided Wilcoxon rank-sum test for continuous variables. Results: Women with endometriosis had significantly elevated plasma ANXA2 levels compared to women without endometriosis (mean concentrations 28.69 vs 19.61 ng/L, p=0.01). Differences in peritoneal fluid ANXA2 levels were statistically insignificant (mean concentrations of 23.7 vs 22.97 ng/L, p=0.06). Plasma concentrations in patients with stage III and IV endometriosis were significantly higher compared to controls (mean concentrations of 24.19 vs 19.71 ng/L, p=0.03). No such differences were observed in plasma when comparing stages I-II vs III-IV, and stages I-II vs controls (mean concentrations of 33.82 vs 24.19 ng/L, p=0.72 and 33.82 vs 19.71 ng/L, p=0.12, respectively). Comparison of samples from patients with or without infertility, primary or secondary infertility, endometriosis with or without infertility, and non-endometriosis with or without infertility showed no significant differences in the plasma nor in the peritoneal fluid concentrations. Conclusion: ANXA2 is possibly involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, especially in advanced stages. Due to the limited group of tested samples, further studies are needed to confirm its role.
