Treatment with anti-TNF monoclonal antibody (c5N) reduces the extent of induced endometriosis in the baboon
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/del044

BACKGROUND: Inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8 and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), are important in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. We assessed the efficacy of anti-TNF monoclonal antibody (mAb, c5…
