Human endometrium is a dynamic tissue under the influence of numerous hormones, growth factors, and cytokines interacting to maintain a balance of cellular growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. We have previously demonstrated that several…

BACKGROUND: Interleukin (IL)-15 is a novel cytokine with immunoregulatory and angiogenic properties. We compared IL-15 levels in the peritoneal fluid (PF) of women with and without endometriosis. METHODS: PF samples were obtained from 55 wo…

Interaction between endometrial stromal cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) components has a crucial role in the development of endometriosis. Endometrial stromal cells attach to the mesothelial surface of peritoneum by means of integrins …

Numerous cytokines and growth factors are synthesized in the endometrium. IL-8 is one of these cytokines regulating endometrial function. It is a neutrophil chemoattractant/ activating factor and a potent angiogenic agent. IL-8 is elevated …
