Pain, the most common symptom in endometriosis, has been reported in up to 50% of patients. Human peritoneal endometriotic lesions are innervated by nerve fibers that appear to be responsible for much of the pain and local tenderness. A num…
Previous studies in an experimental mouse model of endometriosis have shown that the dopamine agonist (DA) cabergoline (Cb2) reduces angiogenesis and endometriotic lesions, hypothetically binding to the dopamine receptor type-2 (DRD2). To d…
BACKGROUND: Implantation of a retrogradely-shed endometrium during menstruation requires an adequate blood supply. The endometrium has angiogenic potential, and endometriotic lesions grow in areas with a rich vascularization, suggesting tha…
Survival of newly implanted retrograde–shed endometrial tissue during menstruation in an ectopic location requires an adequate blood supply. This suggests that angiogenesis is a prerequisite for the development of endometriosis and that its…
also sensitized ESC to Fas-mediated apoptosis, but this effect seems not to be mediated by the downregulation of FLIP, an inhibitor of caspase-8 activation. Conclusion: In summary, we demonstrate that human ESC are primarily resistant to ap…
