Archives of gynecology and obstetrics ·doi:10.1007/s00404-012-2220-y

PURPOSE: Abnormal myometrial motility may play a role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Uterine contractility is a major contribution to labour. Myometrial motility might be controlled by CD 117-positive uterine smooth muscle cells. ME…

Cyclooxygenase-2 expression, Ki-67 labeling index, and perifocal neovascularization in endometriotic lesions
Annals of diagnostic pathology ·doi:10.1016/j.anndiagpath.2009.08.001

There is a suggested pathogenetic role of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in endometriosis via angiogenesis and proproliferative mechanisms. The aim of the study was to investigate the immunohistochemical COX-2 expression in different anatomical s…

COX–2 is overesxpressed in ovarian endometriosis and might represent a therapeutic target
·doi:10.1055/s-0028-1088624

Aims: Recent studies have suggested that cyclooxygenase–2 (COX–2) is involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of COX–2 in different anatomical sites of endometriosis
