Abstract Endometriosis is a benign gynaecological disease appearing with pelvic pain, rising dysmenorrhoea and infertility seriously impacting on 10% of reproductive‐age females. This research attempts to demonstrate the function and molecu…

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease associated with pain and infertility. The objective of this study was to determine the expression of ZEB1 in endometriosis and its role in 17β-estradiol (E2)-induced epithelial-mesenchymal tran…

AIM: Lipoxin A4 (LXA4 ) can function as an endogenous 'breaking signal' in inflammation and plays an important role in the progression of endometriosis. The proteome responses to interleukin-1β (IL-1β) or LXA4 in human endometriotic stromal…

ObjectiveEpithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is essential for embryogenesis, fibrosis, and tumor metastasis. Aberrant EMT phenomenon has been reported in endometriotic tissues of patients with endometriosis (EM). In this study, we furth…
