Endometriosis, a disease in which endometrial tissue proliferates outside the uterus, is a progressive disease that affects women in reproductive age. It causes abdominal pain and infertility that severely affects the quality of life in you…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a known cause of infertility. Differences in immune tolerance caused by regulatory T cells (Tregs) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) are thought to be involved in the pathology of endometriosis. Evidence …
Context: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with altered immune response to endometrial cells facilitating the implantation and proliferation of ectopic endometrial tissues. Although regulatory T (Treg) cells play a …
The predictive value of the morphology of the cumulus--oocyte complex (COC) has not yet been explored as a possible factor contributing to the success of human in-vitro maturation (IVM). In the present study, development-supporting competen…
PROBLEM: To determine whether infertile patients with endometriosis have serum antiendometrial antibodies. METHODS: Sera from 40 infertile patients with or without endometriosis were tested by cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),…
The complete clinical course of a case of ovarian clear cell carcinoma expressing luteinizing hormone (LH)/human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) receptor arising from endometriosis in a pregnant woman is presented. A 31-year-old woman visited …
ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) for gonadal steroid hormone receptors in the human pelvic peritoneum.DesignAnalysis of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and androgen receptor (AR) mRNA expres…
Abstract A total of 206 nongravid patients with various gynecologic problems underwent pelvic magnetic resonance (MR) examinations that included both sagittal T2‐weighted and contrast agent–enhanced T1‐weighted images. MR images were retros…
ObjectiveWe determined the effect of sera from patients who have endometriosis on natural killer cell activity.Study designThe natural killer cell activity of lymphocytes from healthy volunteers was examined after incubation with sera from …
To determine whether myometrial smooth muscle is newly produced at the endometrio-myometrial junction (EMJ) of the adult uterus, we examined the ultrastructure of mesenchymal components at this site during the menstrual cycle and during ear…
Serum level of CA-125 was monitored up to 48 hours after injection of 125 mg P-in-oil into patients with or without endometriosis in the follicular phase of their menstrual cycle. Circulating CA-125 levels remained unchanged at around 5 U/m…
