Angiogenesis is a critical step in the development of ectopic lesions during endometriosis. Although total vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) A is elevated in the peritoneal fluid of women with endometriosis, there are contradictory …

The aim of the present study was to conduct a semiquantitative immunohistochemical investigation into the levels of intermediary proteins within the nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB pathway throughout the menstrual cycle in a non-human primate, n…

In this retrospective study on banked tissue, we found that alpha-actinin and talin were completely de-expressed in both endometriosis and endometrioid carcinoma tissue. Some patchy, depolarized labeling for ezrin was noted in the endometri…

In this retrospective and quantitated study on banked tissue we found that, compared to normal uterine epithelial cells, growth hormone (GH) is increased 3.4-fold in endometriosis and 3.8-fold in endometrial adenocarcinoma. Similarly, inter…

The cadherin family of proteins is significantly deexpressed in endometriosis and even more so in endometrioid adenocarcinoma. A similar finding was observed for the cadherin-associated cell adhesion protein plakoglobin. E-cadherin was not …

A widely accepted theory of the etiology of endometriosis is that it originates from the implantation and invasion of cells from retrograde menstruation to various sites in the body particularly the pelvic peritoneal cavity. Little is known…

BACKGROUND: Uterine luminal epithelial cell response to different hormonal strategies was examined to determine commonality when an endometrium attains a receptive, stimulated, morphological profile that may lead to successful implantation.…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a condition that affects women of reproductive age, where the glandular and/or stromal tissues from the eutopic endometrium implant in ectopic locations. It is well established that the survival of ectopic impla…

Cycling virgin female rats were treated with clomiphene citrate (CC) during dioestrus of the reproductive cycle. Animals were sacrificed 2 days after the initial injection and their vaginal tissue was examined by scanning electron microscop…

The glandular structure in the uterine epithelium of three groups of patients on standard superovulatory regimes was studied using a fully automated image analysis system. It was found that one treatment (buserelin stimulation) produced mor…
