The goal of this study was to compare the T-cadherin, E-cadherin, progesterone receptor (PR), and estrogen receptor (ER) staining levels of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) tissue, ovarian endometriomas and normal endometrial tissues i…

Abstract: Ectopic implantation of endometrial tissues outside of the endometrial layer is termed as endometriosis, which affects almost 10% of childbearing women, and the onset of pathogenesis goes back to the first menstrual bleeding. The …
