Massive hemothorax due to diaphragmatic endometriosis after a laparoscopic cystectomy of an ovarian endometrioma in a patient without a history of thoracic endometriosis
Archives of gynecology and obstetrics ·doi:10.1007/s00404-012-2313-7

BackgroundSevere hemothorax is a rare complication after laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis, and the causes and proper management are not well understood.CaseWe report here the extremely rare case with massive hemothorax after laparosco…

Protease-activated receptor-stimulated interleukin-6 expression in endometriosis-like lesions in an experimental mouse model of endometriosis
Journal of pharmacological sciences ·doi:10.1254/jphs.11216fp

The present study was undertaken to investigate the function of protease-activated receptor (PAR) in endometriotic lesions using a mouse model of endometriosis. Unilateral ovariectomy (uOVX) was performed on female nude mice followed by int…

Dienogest, a synthetic progestin, inhibits prostaglandin E2 production and aromatase expression by human endometrial epithelial cells in a spheroid culture system
Steroids ·doi:10.1016/j.steroids.2010.08.010

Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) is a major mediator in the pathophysiology, and pathogenesis of gynecological diseases associated with abnormal endometrial disease with proliferation and inflammation, such as endometriosis. In this study, we in…

Dienogest, a synthetic progestin, inhibits the proliferation of immortalized human endometrial epithelial cells with suppression of cyclin D1 gene expression
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/gap042

Dienogest is a specific progesterone receptor agonist with potent oral endometrial activity and is used in the treatment of endometriosis. In this study, we examined the direct effects of dienogest on the proliferation of human endometrial …

Menstrual blood-derived cells confer human dystrophin expression in the murine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy via cell fusion and myogenic transdifferentiation.
Molecular biology of the cell ·doi:10.1091/mbc.e06-09-0872

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the most common lethal genetic disorder in children, is an X-linked recessive muscle disease characterized by the absence of dystrophin at the sarcolemma of muscle fibers. We examined a putative endometria…

Significance of immunological detection of human telomerase reverse transcriptase: re-evaluation of expression and localization of human telomerase reverse transcriptase.
The American Journal of Pathology ·doi:10.1016/s0002-9440(10)63446-3

Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) is a catalytic subunit of telomerase and is a potentially useful diagnostic marker for cancers. There have been few studies in which immunological detection of hTERT has been attempted and its …
