Polymorphisms and haplotypes of the gene encoding the estrogen-metabolizing CYP19 gene in Korean women: no association with advanced-stage endometriosis
Journal of human genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10038-007-0174-x

A variety of factors affect the development of endometriosis, including hormonal status and genetic factors. The growth of endometriosis is stimulated by local estrogen production in conjunction with circulating estrogen. The CYP19 gene enc…
