INTRODUCTION: Although endometriosis is a benign disease, it shares some features with cancers, such as invasiveness and the potential to metastasize. This study sought to investigate the epithelial-mesenchymal transition status in human en…

Endocrine journal ·doi:10.1507/endocrj.ej13-0027

Nerve growth factor (NGF) has been recently proposed as one of the key factors responsible not only for promotion of nerve fiber growth but also for the onset and maintenance of pain in a variety of diseases. The aim of this study was to in…

Frontiers in bioscience (Elite edition) ·doi:10.2741/e589

Proposed hypothetical causes of endometriosis include retrograde menstruation, lymphatic and vascular metastasis, iatrogenic direct implantation, coelomic metaplasia, embryonic rest, and mesenchymal cell differentiation (induction). Each th…

Human uterine endometrium has unique properties to regenerate and remodel cyclically throughout the woman's reproductive life and also gives rise to endometriosis through ectopic implantation of retrograde shedding including endometrial cel…

We present a case of a 19 year-old woman with endometriosis treated by laparoscopy 6 years after a liver transplant. This case had a high risk of visceral injury during trocar insertion. We used cine MRI for evaluation of intra-abdominal ad…

Reproduction (Cambridge, England) ·doi:10.1530/rep-09-0438

The human uterus mainly consists of the endometrium and the outer smooth muscle layer termed the myometrium. The uterus harbours the exceptional and remarkable regenerative ability responsible for cyclical regeneration and remodelling throu…

A cross-sectional comparative study among women who underwent surgical treatment for endometriosis revealed that frequency of the Ala/Ala genotype at aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor (AHRR) Pro185Ala polymorphism was three times higher (…

review 2008
Endocrine journal ·doi:10.1507/endocrj.k08e-067

The human endometrium undergoes cyclical changes including proliferation, differentiation, tissue breakdown, and shedding (menstruation) throughout a woman's reproductive life. The postovulatory rise in ovarian progesterone induces profound…

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America ·doi:10.1073/pnas.0604310104

Human uterine endometrium exhibits unique properties of cyclical regeneration and remodeling throughout reproductive life and also is subject to endometriosis through ectopic implantation of retrogradely shed endometrial fragments during me…
