Gene expression analysis of follicular cells revealed inflammation as a potential IVF failure cause.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-019-01447-4

PurposeHormonal stimulation prior to IVF influences the ovarian environment and therefore impacts oocytes and subsequent embryo quality. Not every patient has the same response to the same treatment and many fail for unknown reasons. Knowin…

Increased soluble interleukin-1 receptor type II proteolysis in the endometrium of women with endometriosis
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deh749

Numerous functional changes were observed in the intrauterine endometrial tissue of women with endometriosis. Our previous studies revealed a marked decrease in the expression of interleukin-1 receptor type 2 (IL-1RII), a decoy receptor kno…

Evidence for an increased release of proteolytic activity by the eutopic endometrial tissue in women with endometriosis and for involvement of matrix metalloproteinase-9
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deh290

BACKGROUND: For the implantation of endometrium in ectopic locations, remodelling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is necessary. Many studies have shown an increased expression of various proteases in the ectopic endometrium of women with …

Ectopic endometrial cells express high concentrations of interleukin (IL)-8 in vivo regardless of the menstrual cycle phase and respond to oestradiol by up-regulating IL-1-induced IL-8 expression in vitro
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/7.9.859

Endometriosis, an oestrogen-dependent disorder affecting women of reproductive age, is associated with active angiogenesis and an increased recruitment of leukocyte into the peritoneal cavity where the implants often develop. The role of oe…
