The present study aimed to examine potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of endometriosis. A plasma-based proteomic approach, including 2-dimentional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, was used. Samples were obtained from patients with…
Endometriosis is a gynecological disease defined as the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, which is caused by various factors. Proteomic analysis of two sets of eutopic endometrial cells collected from the menstrual …
Endometriosis, characterized by the growth of the endometrial gland and stroma outside the uterine cavity, is a gynecological disorder affecting 6‑10% of women of reproductive age. However, the pathogenesis of endometriosis and the molecula…
AIM: Hormones and inflammation have been implicated in the pathological process of endometriosis; therefore, we investigated the combined effects of 17β-estradiol (E2) and peritoneal fluid obtained from patients with endometriosis (ePF) or …
