Estrogen and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) differentially impact endometrial cell function, however, the biological basis of these differences is not established. Deregulated cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix, cell …
OBJECTIVE: The soluble form of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor, s-VEGFR-1, may negatively regulate the action of VEGF. Our purpose was to better understand the regulation of angiogenetic processes in ovarian cysts. ME…
OBJECTIVE: To determine the levels of the angiogenic factors vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and interleukin (IL-8) in ovarian cysts. DESIGN: Prospective descriptive study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): One hundred …
Patients with endometriosis are characterized by the ability of the endometrium to implant and by the peritoneal response to the tissue; angiogenic factors may play a significant role in the aetiology of endometriosis supporting the implant…
Inhibin A, inhibin B, and activin A are growth factors which play local autocrine/paracrine roles in reproductive tissues. Since peritoneal fluid hormone content may reflect in part ovarian and endometrial secretory activities, the present …
Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is a 41-amino acid neurohormone involved in the neuroendocrine response to stress, also playing a role in cell-mediated immune functions and in inflammation. In the light of recent evidence showing an as…
