BACKGROUND
Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is commonly associated with severe pain. The pain can be managed successfully with GnRH agonists or continuous progestins. The precise molecular mechanism by which DIE causes pain or why hormonal treatment is effective, however, remains unclear. We
We demonstrated the expression of Gas6, the protein product of the growth arrest-specific gene 6 (gas6) and a member of the vitamin K-dependent protein family, and its receptor tyrosine kinases, Axl and Sky, in human uterine and ovarian endometriotic endometria using RT-PCR-Southern blot analysis
UNASSIGNED
To evaluate PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism and the risk of endometriosis.
UNASSIGNED
A meta-analysis of 10 published case-control studies (from four articles), with a total sample of 971 cases and 1,181 controls, was performed. We estimated risk (odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals) of
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the biochemical parameters of the erythrocyte response to diamide-induced oxidative stress, alone or as adjuncts to serum values of CA-125 and human epididymal secretory protein E4 (HE4), in the diagnosis and study of endometriosis.
METHODS
University of
Chronic pain is a major symptom in patients with endometriosis, a common gynecologic condition affecting women in their reproductive years. Although many proalgesic substances are produced by endometriosis lesions, experimental evidence supporting their relative roles is still lacking. Furthermore,
BACKGROUND
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which immune response and production of estrogen in endometriotic tissues are involved in the development of the disease. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) stimulates aromatase (P450arom) expression in endometrioma stromal cells (ESCs) and
To evaluate serum values of cluster of differentiation 95 (CD95/FAS), hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α), and tyrosine kinase receptor 2 (Tie-2) as possible biomarkers of disease presence and severity in women with endometriosis, and to characterize the changes in these values in women with
BACKGROUND
Endometriosis is a common, benign, oestrogen-dependent, chronic gynaecological disorder associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Some researchers have identified nerve fibers in endometriotic lesions in women with endometriosis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted interest for
OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether genes that had been found to be differentially expressed in deep-infiltrating endometriosis and matched eutopic endometrium in our previous complementary DNA microarray study also are differentially expressed in ovarian endometriosis and matched eutopic
Our recent DNA microarray analysis using tissue obtained by laser capture microdissection (LCM) identified up-regulation of RON (a tyrosine kinase receptor) during the late secretory phase in eutopic endometrial epithelial cells from patients with deep endometriosis compared with control endometrium
Endometriosis, a common gynecological disorder that causes infertility and pelvic pain, is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma within extra-uterine sites. However, despite extensive studies its etiology and pathogenesis are not completely understood. Differentially expressed
Aims: Protein tyrosine phosphatase Src-homology-2-domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2) and adaptor protein Grb2-associated binding protein 2 (GAB2) can bind to each other in various signal transduction. However, the expression of SHP2 and GAB2 have not been investigated in endometriosis.
BACKGROUND Endometriosis can cause dysmenorrhea and infertility. Its pathogenesis has not yet been clarified and its treatment continues to pose enormous challenges. The protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTEN) gene is a tumor suppressor gene. The aim of this study was to investigate the role and
BACKGROUND
The roles of the neurotrophins NGF (Neurotrophic growth factor) and BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) in neuronal growth and development are already known. Meanwhile, the neurotrophin receptors TrkA (tropomyosin related kinase A), TrkB, and p75 are important for determining the
