Inverse correlation between peritoneal ¯uid leptin concentrations and the extent of endometriosis

BACKGROUND: The role of leptin in reproductive processes has received increasing attention. Because leptin has intrinsic angiogenic properties, may be induced by in¯ammatory cytokines and induces matrix metalloproteinases, we examined perit…
