A seed or soil problem in early endometriosis: stromal cell origin drives cellular invasion and coupling over mesothelial cell origin
F&S science ·doi:10.1016/j.xfss.2024.08.001

OBJECTIVE: To study the role of the mesothelial cells in early endometriosis lesion formation by assessing in vitro cell-to-cell communication and invasion of endometrial cells across a mesothelial cell monolayer, with both cell types deriv…

Author response: Hypersensitive intercellular responses of endometrial stromal cells drive invasion in endometriosis
·doi:10.7554/elife.94778.sa2

A unique functional comparison of the major endometrial cell types from 44 control and endometriosis patients demonstrates not only a uterine origin of the disease, but also that endometrial to mesothelial cell gap junctions are required fo…

Endometrial Gap Junction Expression - Early Indicators of Endometriosis and Integral to Invasiveness
·doi:10.1101/2021.01.25.428135

Abstract Endometriosis is an invasive disease, and a leading cause of pain, infertility and disability among women, with an incidence 10 fold that of cancer. A more complete understanding of disease pathogenesis is essential for the develop…

Induction of Gap Junctional Coupling by Secreted Factor(s) from Mesothelial Cells is Required for the Invasiveness of Endometriosis
·doi:10.1096/fasebj.2018.32.1_supplement.533.17

Intercellular interactions, including gap junction intercellular coupling (GJIC), have been implicated in many invasive processes (e.g. extravasation, metastasis and oocyte implantation). Yet the role of gap junctions in endometriosis, a ma…
