Stromal cells of endometriosis fail to produce paracrine factors that induce epithelial 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 gene and its transcriptional regulator Sp1: a mechanism for defective estradiol metabolism

American journal of obstetrics and gynecology ·doi:10.1016/j.ajog.2006.12.014

ObjectiveIn endometrium, stromal progesterone receptors mediate production of paracrine factors, which enhance binding of the transcription factor specific protein-1 to the promoter of the gene encoding the 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogena…
