Genetic or Enzymatic Disruption of Aromatase Inhibits the Growth of Ectopic Uterine Tissue
·doi:10.1210/jc.87.7.3460

Aromatase P450 (P450arom) is the key enzyme for the biosynthesis of estrogen that is essential for the growth of human endometriosis, a pathology characterized by endometrium-like tissue on the peritoneal surfaces of abdominal organs manife…
