How can macroscopically normal peritoneum contribute to the pathogenesis of endometriosis?
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.06.034

This study indicates that the immunobiology of macroscopically normal peritoneum is relevant to understand the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Peritoneal interleukin 6, interleukin 12, and ferritin were differentially expressed in women with…

Effect of recombinant human TNF-binding protein-1 and GnRH antagonist on mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines and adhesion and growth factors in endometrium and endometriosis tissues in baboons
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2006.11.205

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the mechanism of action of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-binding protein-1 by assessing differential expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) for cytokines, matrix metalloproteinases, and growth and adhesion…

Endometrial and peritoneal expression of aromatase, cytokines, and adhesion factors in women with endometriosis
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2007.02.057

OBJECTIVE: To examine messenger (m) RNA expression of aromatase, cytokines, and adhesion factors in women with and without endometriosis. DESIGN: Patients with endometriosis were compared with control patients. SETTING: University Hospita…

Increased peritoneal and endometrial gene expression of biologically relevant cytokines and growth factors during the menstrual phase in women with endometriosis
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2005.11.060

OBJECTIVE: To examine differential messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of relevant cytokines, metalloproteases, growth and adhesion factors in endometrium and peritoneum from women with endometriosis when compared with women without the disease…
