Platelet-derived growth factor BB is reduced in endometrial endothelial cells of women with abnormal uterine bleeding–endometrial disorder

·doi:10.1016/j.rbmo.2022.02.005

Research questionWhat is the expression pattern of platelet-derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB), and its receptors, across the menstrual cycle in healthy control women and those with abnormal uterine bleeding-endometrial disorder (AUB-E)?Des…

Transforming Growth Factor (TGF) β and Endometrial Vascular Maturation

Frontiers in cell and developmental biology ·doi:10.3389/fcell.2021.640065

Appropriate growth and development of the endometrium across the menstrual cycle is key for a woman’s quality of life and reproductive well-being. Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) affect a significant propor…

Apoptosis and bcl-2 expression in normal human endometrium, endometriosis and adenomyosis

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/13.12.3496

Apoptosis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases and is partly regulated by bcl-2, which blocks the apoptotic pathway and promotes cell survival. Apoptosis and bcl-2 expression were examined in paired eutopic and ectopi…

Intraepithelial leukocytes in endometriosis and adenomyosis: comparison of eutopic and ectopic endometrium with normal endometrium

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/13.10.2910

Intraepithelial leukocytes (IEL) are recognized as an important component of most mucosal surfaces but have received scant attention in the human female reproductive tract. The aim of the present study was to characterize, quantify and comp…

Immunohistochemical characterization of stromal leukocytes in ovarian endometriosis: comparison of eutopic and ectopic endometrium with normal endometrium

Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/s0015-0282(16)58391-5

ObjectiveTo compare stromal leukocyte subpopulations in different phases of the menstrual cycle in eutopic and ectopic endometrium from women with ovarian endometriosis and in control endometrium.DesignRetrospective immunohistochemical stud…

Endometrial leukocyte subpopulations in women with endometriosis

European journal of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology ·doi:10.1016/0301-2115(95)02222-s

The aim of this study was to investigate whether the endometrium of women with endometriosis differs immunologically from the endometrium of normal fertile women. Endometrial biopsies were obtained from 18 normal fertile women who were requ…

Immunohistochemical characterization of proliferation, oestrogen receptor and progesterone receptor expression in endometriosis: comparison of eutopic and ectopic endometrium with normal cycling endometrium

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/oxfordjournals.humrep.a135901

Recent studies examining oestrogen and progesterone receptor status and the proliferative activity of endometriotic lesions have produced conflicting reports. This study aimed to clarify the receptor status and proliferative activity of eut…
