GSTM1 gene expression correlates to leiomyoma volume regression in response to mifepristone treatment

PloS one ·doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0080114

UNLABELLED: Progesterone receptor modulators, such as mifepristone are useful and well tolerated in reducing leiomyoma volume although with large individual variation. The objective of this study was to investigate the molecular basis for t…

Cervical ripening after treatment with prostaglandin E2 or antiprogestin (RU486). Possible mechanisms in relation to gonadal steroids

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology ·doi:10.1016/s0301-2115(98)00329-7

OBJECTIVE: To compare the mechanisms for cervical ripening after treatment with prostaglandin E2 or antiprogestin (RU486) to spontaneous cervical ripening, with focus on gonadal steroid receptors. STUDY DESIGN: Cervical biopsies were obtai…
