Interleukin-2 receptor b gene C627T polymorphism in Korean women with endometriosis: a case–control study

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene Glu298Asp polymorphism is associated with advanced stage endometriosis

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility that the K469E and G241R polymorphisms in the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) gene and the C-634G polymorphism in the interleukin (IL)-6 gene are associate…

PROBLEM: To investigate whether the glutathione-S-transferase P1 (GSTP1) exon 5 polymorphism is associated with susceptibility to advanced stage endometriosis in Korean women. METHOD OF STUDY: Case-control study in a collective of 260 pati…

BACKGROUND: Altered expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) has been reported to be involved in the development of endometriosis. The genotypes of eNOS gene (NOS3) may be responsible for variation in its enzymatic activity as…

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential association of the C627T polymorphism in the interleukin-2 receptor beta gene (IL-2R beta) with the risk of endometriosis in Korean women. METHODS: Two hundred and thirt…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of a combined regimen of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and low dose human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) following GnRH agonist ultralong protocol in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH)…
