article 2012
Towards Endometriosis Diagnosis by Gadofosveset-Trisodium Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging
PloS one ·doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0033241

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. It affects 10-15% of women during reproductive age and has a big personal and social impact due to chronic pelvic pain, subfertility, loss of work-hours and …

Deoxyribonucleic acid methyltransferases and methyl-CpG-binding domain proteins in human endometrium and endometriosis
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.01.031

OBJECTIVE: To determine [1] expression levels of both DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and methyl-CpG-binding domain proteins (MBDs) in human endometrium throughout the menstrual cycle and in eutopic and ectopic endometrium of patients with e…

The European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis: an electronic guideline implementability appraisal
Implementation science : IS ·doi:10.1186/1748-5908-6-7

BACKGROUND: Clinical guidelines are intended to improve healthcare. However, even if guidelines are excellent, their implementation is not assured. In subfertility care, the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) guid…

[Loss of renal function due to deep infiltrating endometriosis; a complicated consideration in women who wish to have children].
Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde

Three nulliparous women, aged 39, 34 and 26 years, who were treated for fertility problems and who were affected by endometriosis, presented with ureteral obstruction caused by deep infiltrating endometriosis. The first two patients had com…

Antiangiogenic and vascular-disrupting agents in endometriosis: pitfalls and promises
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/gan019

It is widely known that angiogenesis plays a key role in endometriotic lesion formation and development. Antiangiogenic treatments aimed at inhibiting new vessel formation have proven efficient in experimental models. However, as antiangiog…

Oral contraceptives prevent the development of endometriosis in the chicken chorioallantoic membrane model
Contraception ·doi:10.1016/j.contraception.2008.05.003
article 2005
Angiostatic agents prevent the development of endometriosis-like lesions in the chicken chorioallantoic membrane
Fertility and Sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2004.06.080
review 2005
Now you see them, now you don't
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2005.01.122

Tissue integrity of the regurgitated endometrium is pivotal to the development of endometriosis. Occult, submicroscopic lesions occur. Diagnostic laparoscopy may underestimate as well as overestimate the presence of endometriosis.

article 2004
Antiangiogenesis Therapy for Endometriosis
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jc.2003-031406

It is known that angiogenesis is of pivotal importance for the development of endometriosis. However, in the treatment of endometriosis patients, prevention of endometriosis lesion development only will not be sufficient as a therapy. Treat…

article 2004
Inhibiting MMP activity prevents the development of endometriosis in the chicken chorioallantoic membrane model
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deh408

BACKGROUND: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are essential for extracellular matrix remodelling and may contribute to the development of endometriosis. Transplantation of endometrium onto the chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) results i…

article 2004
Pathogenesis of endometriosis
Best practice & research. Clinical obstetrics & gynaecology ·doi:10.1016/j.bpobgyn.2004.01.005
article 2004
Proteome analysis of human mesothelial cells during epithelial to mesenchymal transitions induced by shed menstrual effluent
Proteomics ·doi:10.1002/pmic.200300827

Peritoneal endometriosis is the result of ectopic implantation and growth of endometrium tissue that has been regurgitated into the abdominal cavity during menstruation. We have previously shown that menstrual effluent induces epithelial to…

article 2003
Tissue integrity is essential for ectopic implantation of human endometrium in the chicken chorioallantoic membrane
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deg033

BACKGROUND: Not all women with patent tubes develop clinically manifest endometriosis. Quality and quantity of endometrium in retrograde menstruation may be the determining factor in the development of the disease. We hypothesize that retro…
