Vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation in arterioles of the human endometrium

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/14.4.1072

Menorrhagia affects approximately 15% of all women, often without identifiable cause. Endometrial spiral arterioles are believed to play a major role in controlling menstruation, and are a major site of menstrual loss. We postulate that alt…

Endothelial cell proliferation in the endometrium of women with menorrhagia and in women following endometrial ablation

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/oxfordjournals.humrep.a019298

Local endometrial aberrations are thought to be the major contributing factor to essential menorrhagia. Here we have examined the role of endometrial angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels, in essential menorrhagia. Our study tested …

Vascular smooth muscle alpha-actin distribution around endometrial arterioles during the menstrual cycle: increased expression during the perimenopause and lack of correlation with menorrhagia

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/oxfordjournals.humrep.a019020

Menorrhagia affects approximately 9% of all women, increasing to 20% during the perimenopause. The majority of menstrual loss occurs through the spiral arterioles - specialized endometrial vessels that are intimately involved in controlling…

Endometrial sex steroid receptor expression in women with menorrhagia

British journal of obstetrics and gynaecology ·doi:10.1111/j.1471-0528.1994.tb11917.x

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the oestrogen and progesterone receptor distribution in endometrium from reproductive age and perimenopausal women with and without menorrhagia. DESIGN: A comparative observational study. SUBJECTS: Forty-five wom…
