Here, we describe a protocol for the implementation of a heterologous mouse model in which progression of endometriosis can be assessed in real time through noninvasive monitoring of fluorescence emitted by implanted ectopic human endometri…

PurposeThe present study aims to ascertain whether there is a causal relationship between women's disease conditions present at the starting time of the first intended oocyte retrieval cycle and IVF/ICSI outcomes, primarily odds of live bir…

To analyze the role of PAI-1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor 1) in endometriotic lesion growth, we studied the effect of PAI-1 inhibition by PAI-039 using a homologous mouse model of endometriosis that allows noninvasive monitoring. Endome…

To date, several groups have generated homologous models of endometriosis through the implantation of endometrial tissue fluorescently labeled by green fluorescent protein (GFP) or tissue from luciferase-expressing transgenic mice into reci…

ObjectiveTo assess the therapeutic potential of polyinosine-polycytidylic acid, a double-stranded RNA molecule with selective proapoptotic and antiangiogenic activity, complexed with polyethyleneimine (pIC(PEI)) in treating endometriosis.De…

Implantation of a retrogradely shed endometrium during menstruation requires an adequate blood supply, which allows the growth of endometriotic lesions. This suggests that the development of endometriosis can be impaired by inhibiting angio…

ObjectiveTo assess whether dopamine receptor 2 agonists reduced the size of peritoneal lesions in women with endometriosis and elucidate whether affectation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2)-dependent ang…
