Expression of survivin, an inhibitor of apoptosis, is increased in endometriotic lesions and probably favors the survival of endometrial fragments in the peritoneal cavity. The aim of this study was to evaluate associations between survivin…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether polymorphisms in genes involved in biosynthesis and signalling of sex steroids influence susceptibility to endometriosis and to infertility associated with it. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with endometr…
ObjectiveTo determine plausible associations between endometriosis and vascular endothelial growth factor gene (VEGF -2578 A/C, -1154 G/A, -634 G/C and 936 C/T), also angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene (ACE -240 A/T and 2350 A/G) single n…
In this case-control study, we investigated the potential associations of MMP-2 and MMP-9 gene promoter region polymorphisms as well as MMP-2 promoter haplotypes with susceptibility to endometriosis in women of caucasian origin. The results…
