Endometriosis presents a pro-inflammatory microenvironment influenced by cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-8, which expression may be influenced by genetic polymorphisms. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the role of interleukin (IL)-8 r…
ObjectiveDROSHA and DICER1 enzymes participate in the main stages of microRNA synthesis. Polymorphisms can influence mRNAs stability and genes expression, and hence affect the binding of miRNAs. Thus, the present study evaluated the associa…
Endometriosis is a complex and heterogeneous disease in which extrinsic and intrinsic factors, such as genetics, provide to the disease development. Genome-wide association (GWA) studies may be essential to recognize genetic variants associ…
Endometriosis has a complex and multifactorial pathology, and it is considered one of the main causes of infertility nowadays. The angiogenic process, which involves remodeling of extracellular matrix, is crucial for the development of this…
Purpose To evaluate the magnitude of the association of the polymorphisms of the genes PGR, CYP17A1 and CYP19A1 in the development of endometriosis. Methods This is a retrospective case-control study involving 161 women with endometriosis (…
OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is a multifactorial gynecological disease, whose pathogenesis is crucially dependent on angiogenesis, which is signaled via vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor (VEGFR2). We hypothesize that si…
ObjectiveTo investigate the contribution of CYP2C19 polymorphisms and body mass index (BMI) in the development of endometriosis.Study designThis is a case-control study that includes 356 women (187 cases and 169 controls) recruited from two…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is regarded as a complex and heterogeneous disease in which genetic and environmental factors contribute to the phenotype. The Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) plays important roles in the pathogenesis of …
