The endometria of women with endometriosis exhibit dysfunctional expression of complement regulatory proteins during the mid secretory phase
Journal of reproductive immunology ·doi:10.1016/j.jri.2017.10.046

The control of complement activation within embryo-endometrium environment is critical for embryo survival. Cell evasion from complement attack requires interaction of complement regulatory proteins (CRPs) with cell adhesion αvβ3 integrin. …

Endometrial expression and in vitro modulation of the iron transporter divalent metal transporter-1: implications for endometriosis
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2016.04.002

ObjectiveTo evaluate divalent metal transporter-1 (DMT1) expression in healthy women's and endometriosis patients' endometrium and to analyze DMT1 and ferritin light chain (Fn-L) expression modulation by iron overload and IL-1β in endometri…

article 2014
Iron overload–modulated nuclear factor kappa-B activation in human endometrial stromal cells as a mechanism postulated in endometriosis pathogenesis
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2014.10.046

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of iron overload on nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) activation in human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs).DesignExperimental study.SettingUniversity hospital research laboratory.Patient(s)Ten healthy women.Inte…

Complement C3 and decay-accelerating factor expression levels are modulated by human chorionic gonadotropin in endometrial compartments during the implantation window.
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719113477486

The control of complement activation in the embryo-maternal environment has been demonstrated to be critical for embryo survival. Complement proteins are expressed in the human endometrium; however, the modulation of this expression by embr…

Bioinformatic detection of E47, E2F1 and SREBP1 transcription factors as potential regulators of genes associated to acquisition of endometrial receptivity.
Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/1477-7827-9-14

BackgroundThe endometrium is a dynamic tissue whose changes are driven by the ovarian steroidal hormones. Its main function is to provide an adequate substrate for embryo implantation. Using microarray technology, several reports have provi…

Physiologic activation of nuclear factor kappa-B in the endometrium during the menstrual cycle is altered in endometriosis patients
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.12.006

ObjectiveTo evaluate nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB) activation and NF-κB-p65 subunit activation, immunolocalization, and expression in the endometrium of healthy women and endometriosis patients throughout the menstrual cycle.DesignProspecti…
