Background/aimIntestinal lymphatic vessels (lacteals) play a critical role in the absorption and transport of dietary lipids into the circulation. Calcitonin gene-related peptide and receptor activity-modifying protein 1 (RAMP1) are involve…

Endometriosis is highly dependent on angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. Prostaglandin E2, an arachidonic acid metabolite, has been shown to promote the formation of new blood and lymphatic vessels. However, the role of another arachidonic …

Lymphatic vessels have crucial roles in the regulation of interstitial fluids, immune surveillance, and the absorption of dietary fat in the intestine. Lymphatic function is also closely related to the pathogenesis of various disease states…

Background/aimMicrosomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) is an enzyme, which catalyzes the final step of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis. PGE2 in involved in wound-induced angiogenesis. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) regulate not only im…

Abstract Neuroimmune interactions are involved in the development of endometriosis. Here, we examined the role of a neuropeptide, calcitonin gene–related peptide (CGRP), and its receptor, receptor activity–modifying protein (RAMP) 1, in gro…

Lymphangiogenesis is related to the growth of endometriosis. Here, we examined whether vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 1 (VEGFR1) signaling plays a role in lymphangiogenesis during endometriosis. Endometrial fragments fro…

Abstract Angiogenesis is critical in maintenance of endometrial tissues. Here, we examined the role of VEGF receptor 1 (VEGFR1) signaling in angiogenesis and tissue growth in an endometriosis model. Endometrial fragments were implanted into…

Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases in women of reproductive age. Although cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors are effective in the treatment of endometriosis, the adverse cardiovascular effects associated with thes…

Expression of receptors for prostaglandin (PG) and leukotriene (LT) has been reported to detect in endometrium and smooth muscle of uterus, suggesting involvement of these arachidonic metabolites in endometrial pathology and reproductive bi…
