Apoptosis in endometrial glandular and stromal cells in women with and without endometriosis

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/16.9.1802

BACKGROUND: The aetiology of endometriosis is unknown. Ectopic dissemination of the endometrial cells gives origin to endometriotic lesions, but occurs in women with and without endometriosis. It has been suggested that increased ectopic ce…
