Inducers of G-protein coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) in endometriosis: potential implications for macrophages and follicle maturation
Journal of Reproductive Immunology ·doi:10.1016/j.jri.2012.10.013

Endometriosis is an estrogen dependent chronic inflammation and thus a condition of stress. Though the G-protein coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) has been shown to be up-regulated in ovarian endometriosis, insights involved in inducing this…

The G-Protein-Coupled Estrogen Receptor (GPER) is Expressed in Normal Human Ovaries and is Upregulated in Ovarian Endometriosis and Pelvic Inflammatory Disease Involving the Ovary
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719112446085

Estrogens play a crucial role in maintaining ovarian function. Deregulation of estrogen signals is associated with fertility-impairing disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the G-protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER…

The diagnostic accuracy of two human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) testing systems in combination with CA125 in the differential diagnosis of ovarian masses
Clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine ·doi:10.1515/cclm.2011.709

BACKGROUND: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is the best known single tumor marker for ovarian cancer (OC). We investigated whether the additional information of the human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) improves diagnostic accuracy. METHODS: We retro…

Afamin and apolipoprotein A-IV: novel protein markers for ovarian cancer
Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology ·doi:10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-08-0653

Comparative proteomics identified the vitamin E-binding plasma protein afamin as a potential novel tumor marker for ovarian cancer. In addition, we observed in a previous small study decreased plasma concentrations of apolipoprotein A-IV (a…
