Pharmacological blockage of the CXCR4-CXCL12 axis in endometriosis leads to contrasting effects in proliferation, migration, and invasion†
Biology of reproduction ·doi:10.1093/biolre/iox152

High levels of inflammatory factors including chemokines have been reported in peritoneal fluid and blood of women with endometriosis. CXCL12 mediates its action by interaction with its specific receptor, CXCR4, reported to be elevated in h…

H3K27me3 is an Epigenetic Mark of Relevance in Endometriosis
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719115578924

Epigenetic mechanisms may play an important role in the etiology of endometriosis. The modification of histones by methylation of lysine residues has been shown to regulate gene expression by changing chromatin structure. We have previously…

Endometriosis is characterized by a distinct pattern of histone 3 and histone 4 lysine modifications
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719113497267

BACKGROUND: The histone modification patterns in endometriosis have not been fully characterized. This gap in knowledge results in a poor understanding of the epigenetic mechanisms (and potential therapeutic targets) at play. We aimed to (1…

HDAC1 and HDAC2 are differentially expressed in endometriosis
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719111432870

Epigenetic mechanisms have been ascribed important roles in endometriosis. Covalent histone modifications at lysine residues have been shown to regulate gene expression and thus contribute to pathological states in many diseases. In endomet…
