Effect of active vitamin D on proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis in endometriotic stromal cells
RESEARCH QUESTION: What is the effect of vitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) on proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis of endometrial stromal cells (ESC) in endometriotic patients? DESIGN: ESC isolated from 10 women with endometriosis and 10 healthy…
