A high sensitivity assay is more accurate than a classical assay for the measurement of plasma CRP levels in endometriosis
Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/1477-7827-9-113

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is associated with chronic subclinical inflammation. C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation, could serve as a biomarker of endometriosis. We tested the hypothesis that a high sensitivity CRP assay (hsCR…

How can macroscopically normal peritoneum contribute to the pathogenesis of endometriosis?
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.06.034

This study indicates that the immunobiology of macroscopically normal peritoneum is relevant to understand the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Peritoneal interleukin 6, interleukin 12, and ferritin were differentially expressed in women with…

Ovarian cancer-associated polymorphisms in the BNC2 gene among women with endometriosis
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/der169

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common benign gynaecological disease. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated associations between endometriosis and ovarian cancer. Recent genome-wide association studies of ovarian cancer have identified s…

Endometriosis and autoimmune disease: association of susceptibility to moderate/severe endometriosis with CCL21 and HLA-DRB1
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2010.07.1060

This study investigates the association of rheumatoid arthritis-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms in endometriosis. We found an association of CCL21 (rs2812378) and HLA-DRB1 (rs660895) with moderate to severe endometriosis.

Introduction: Endometriosis, defined as the growth of endometrial tissue outside \nthe uterine cavity is a common gynaecological disorder affecting 10-15% \nof women in their reproductive years. It is a major clinical problem causing in- \n…

TRIzol treatment of secretory phase endometrium allows combined proteomic and mRNA microarray analysis of the same sample in women with and without endometriosis
Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/1477-7827-8-123

BACKGROUND: According to mRNA microarray, proteomics and other studies, biological abnormalities of eutopic endometrium (EM) are involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, but the relationship between mRNA and protein expression in EM i…

Density of small diameter sensory nerve fibres in endometrium: a semi-invasive diagnostic test for minimal to mild endometriosis
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/dep283

BACKGROUND: The aim of our study was to test the hypothesis that multiple-sensory small-diameter nerve fibres are present in a higher density in endometrium from patients with endometriosis when compared with women with a normal pelvis, ena…

Nonhuman Primate Models for Translational Research in Endometriosis
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719108322430

Endometriosis, defined as the ectopic presence of endometrial-like cells, is associated with infertility and pelvic pain in women. Whereas pathogenesis and spontaneous evolution of endometriosis are still poorly understood, recurrences afte…

Plasma C3a-des-Arg levels in women with and without endometriosis
American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989) ·doi:10.1111/j.1600-0897.2009.00728.x

PROBLEM: The lack of a reliable method for early non-invasive detection of endometriosis often results in delayed diagnosis. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that the plasma concentration of complement factor C3a (anaphylato…
