Increased levels of human neutrophil peptides 1, 2, and 3 in peritoneal fluid of patients with endometriosis: association with neutrophils, T cells and IL-8
Journal of reproductive immunology ·doi:10.1016/j.jri.2011.05.008

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. This disease is associated with pelvic inflammation and displays some features of autoimmune disorder. Human n…
