Abnormal Interleukin-1 Receptor Type II Gene Expression in the Endometrium of Women with Endometriosis1
Biology of reproduction ·doi:10.1095/biolreprod66.2.401

Interleukin 1 (IL-1) is a major proinflammatory cytokine that is believed to play a central role in the pathophysiology of endometriosis. The IL-1 receptor type II (IL-1RII) is known to bind to IL-1 and to inhibit its biological effects. In…

Estradiol Amplifies Interleukin-1-Induced Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-1 Expression by Ectopic Endometrial Cells of Women with Endometriosis1
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jcem.85.2.6348

Endometriosis, one of the most frequently occurring gynecological disorders, is estrogen dependent and is often associated with immunological changes. These include increased macrophage activation and infiltration into the endometriotic imp…

Ovarian hormones modulate monocyte chemotactic protein-1 expression in endometrial cells of women with endometriosis
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/6.7.618

Endometriosis, a frequent oestrogen-dependent disease believed to result from an aberrant proliferation of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, is associated with an increased expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) i…
