Increased expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in the eutopic endometrial tissue of women with endometriosis
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/del297

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a disease where endometrial tissue implants in ectopic locations. Remodelling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is a prerequisite for the implantation of this tissue to be possible. METHODS: In this study, we de…

Increased soluble interleukin-1 receptor type II proteolysis in the endometrium of women with endometriosis
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deh749

Numerous functional changes were observed in the intrauterine endometrial tissue of women with endometriosis. Our previous studies revealed a marked decrease in the expression of interleukin-1 receptor type 2 (IL-1RII), a decoy receptor kno…

Evidence for an increased release of proteolytic activity by the eutopic endometrial tissue in women with endometriosis and for involvement of matrix metalloproteinase-9
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deh290

BACKGROUND: For the implantation of endometrium in ectopic locations, remodelling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is necessary. Many studies have shown an increased expression of various proteases in the ectopic endometrium of women with …
