Progesterone's role in deep infiltrating endometriosis: Progesterone receptor and estrogen metabolism enzymes expression and physiological changes in primary endometrial stromal cell culture
Molecular and cellular endocrinology ·doi:10.1016/j.mce.2020.110743

To study progesterone signaling activation, we measured changes in extracellular pH as a reflection of Na+/H+ exchange (NHE) using a cytosensor microphysiometer and assessed progesterone receptor (PR) and estrogen metabolism enzymes mRNA ex…

Disrupted Cell Cycle Control in Cultured Endometrial Cells from Patients with Endometriosis Harboring the Progesterone Receptor Polymorphism PROGINS
The American journal of pathology ·doi:10.2353/ajpath.2009.080966

Presently, little is understood about how endometriosis is established or maintained, or how genetic factors can predispose women to the disease. Because of the crucial role that the progesterone receptor polymorphism PROGINS plays in predi…

The V109G polymorphism in the p27 gene is associated with endometriosis
European journal of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology ·doi:10.1016/j.ejogrb.2009.04.027

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of the p27 gene polymorphism in women with endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: Transversal case-control study. Genomic DNA was extracted from cells collected from buccal swabs. The p27 V109G polymorphism w…

article 2007
Genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450c17α (CYP17) and progesterone receptor genes (PROGINS) in the assessment of endometriosis risk
Gynecological endocrinology : the official journal of the International Society of Gynecological Endocrinology ·doi:10.1080/09513590601024707

We designed the present study in order to evaluate the eventual role of polymorphisms in the genes encoding cytochrome P450c17alpha (CYP17) and the progesterone receptor (PROGINS) as risk factors for endometriosis development. Eligible case…

Polymorphisms in Exons 1B and 1C of the Type I Interleukin‐1 Receptor Gene in Patients with Endometriosis
American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989) ·doi:10.1111/j.1600-0897.2006.00415.x

To study possible correlation between the prevalence of polymorphisms in the type I interleukin-1 receptor gene and pelvic endometriosis. Genotypes of 223 women were analyzed: 109 women with surgically and histologically confirmed endometri…
