Glutathione S-transferase M1*null genotype but not myeloperoxidase promoter G-463A polymorphism is associated with higher susceptibility to endometriosis
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/gah095

Glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1), one member of the GST family, is responsible for metabolism of xenobiotics and carcinogens. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) plays an important role in the oxidation and activation of carcinogens and nitric oxide.…

T allele for VEGF gene-460 polymorphism at the 5'-untranslated region: association with a higher susceptibility to endometriosis.
The Journal of reproductive medicine

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene 5'-UTR-460 polymorphism could be used as a marker of susceptibility to endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: Women were divided into 2 groups, endometriosis (n = 122) a…

Association of an A allele for interleukin-10 -627 gene promoter polymorphism with higher susceptibility to endometriosis.
The Journal of reproductive medicine

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether interleukin-10 (IL-10) -627 gene promoter polymorphism could be used as a marker of susceptibility to endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: Women were divided into 2 groups, endometriosis (n = 130) and nonendometrio…

Polymorphisms for interleukin-4 (IL-4) -590 promoter, IL-4 intron3, and tumor necrosis factor alpha -308 promoter: non-association with endometriosis
Journal of clinical laboratory analysis ·doi:10.1002/jcla.10021

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a cytokine with anti-inflammatory properties. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), a pluripotent proinflammatory cytokine, plays an important role in the process of numerous inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. …
