Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate attenuates nuclear factor-ĸB activation, cyclooxygenase-2 expression and prostaglandin E2 production in human endometriotic epithelial cells
Gynecologic and obstetric investigation ·doi:10.1159/000327934

BACKGROUND: The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway activates many of the target genes that are critical to the initiation and establishment of endometriosis. We sought to examine the potential application of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC…

Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate inhibits nuclear factor-κB pathway activation, and regulates adhesion, migration, invasion and apoptosis of endometriotic stromal cells
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/gaq090

The activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) has been implicated in the development and progression of endometriosis. The aim of this study is to investigate the potential application of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), a potent NF-κB inh…

Application of the nuclear factor-κB inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate for the treatment of endometriosis: an in vitro study
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2010.05.009

This study demonstrated that pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), a potent nuclear factor-κB inhibitor, showed stronger inhibitory effects on nuclear factor-κB activation in endometriotic stromal cells than in normal endometrial stromal cell…
