Effects of Hydrogen Gas Inhalation on Endometriosis in Rats
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719116655622

ObjectiveOxidative stress is generated during the pathophysiology of endometriosis (EMT). Hydrogen (H2) has been demonstrated as a gas antioxidant. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the protective effect of H2 on EMT in rats.Study…

Whole Endometrial Fragments Form Characteristics of In Vivo Endometriosis in a Mesothelial Cell Co-Culture System: An In Vitro Model for the Study of the Histogenesis of Endometriosis
Journal of the Society for Gynecologic Investigation ·doi:10.1177/107155769400100113

ObjectiveWe have previously reported on the effects of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) on the adhesion of human endometrial stromal cells to peritoneal mesothelial cells in vitro. The relevance of this co-cu…

Effects of peritoneal macrophages from patients with endometriosis on the proliferation of endometrial carcinoma cell line ECC-1
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology ·doi:10.1016/0002-9378(91)90043-q

Endometriosis has been shown to be associated with increased number and activity of peritoneal macrophages. The peritoneal macrophage-conditioned media from 33 women with or without endometriosis were studied for their effects on an endomet…
