Hyaluronic acid reagent suppressed endometriotic lesion formation in a mouse model
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2010.02.053

In an animal endometriosis model, the administration of hyaluronic acid (HA) reagent significantly suppressed the formation of endometriotic lesions in both number and weight. This effect was found when HA treatment was conducted at the tim…

Recruitment of CCR6-Expressing Th17 Cells by CCL 20 Secreted from IL-1β-, TNF-α-, and IL-17A-Stimulated Endometriotic Stromal Cells
Endocrinology ·doi:10.1210/en.2010-0398

In a novel paradigm of T cell differentiation, type 17 T helper (Th17) cells may play a significant role in endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory disease. However, the mechanism regulating the accumulation of Th17 cells in endometriotic tis…

Uterine FK506-binding protein 52 (FKBP52)-peroxiredoxin-6 (PRDX6) signaling protects pregnancy from overt oxidative stress.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America ·doi:10.1073/pnas.1009324107

Immunophilin FK506-binding protein 52 (FKBP52) is a cochaperone that binds to the progesterone receptor (PR) to optimize progesterone (P(4))-PR signaling. We recently showed that Fkbp52-deficient (Fkbp52(-/-)) mice have reduced uterine PR r…

Tunicamycin enhances the apoptosis induced by tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand in endometriotic stromal cells
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/den385

BACKGROUND: The increase in concentration of osteoprotegerin, an antagonist of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), in the peritoneal fluid of women with endometriosis may interfere with TRAIL-induced apoptosis i…
