ObjectiveTo explore the association between the genetic variant of E-cadherin gene and endometriosis-related infertility.DesignCase-control study.SettingUniversity hospital.Patient(s)Five hundred eighty-nine women with ovarian endometriosis…
AIM: To investigate the association of tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) gene with susceptibility to endometriosis. METHODS: This study comprised 571 patients with endo…
BACKGROUND: Angiogenesis appears to be an important event in the pathophysiology of endometriosis (EM) and adenomyosis. Two angiogenic factors, fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 1 and 2, play a central role in the initiation of angiogenesis. W…
BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in the development of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of polymorphisms in the VEGF gene with the susceptibility to endomet…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in VEGF gene with the risk of endometriosis and adenomyosis. METHODS: Genotypes were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polym…
We investigated whether three polymorphisms in the matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2; -1306C-->T and -735C-->T) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2; -418G-->C) genes were related to the risk of endometriosis in reproductive-…
