Hepatocyte growth factor concentrations are elevated in peritoneal fluid of women with endometriosis
The concentrations of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in peritoneal fluid (PF) from women with endometriosis (n = 36) and without endometriosis (n = 40) were measured. All of the PF samples examined contained detectable concentrations of HGF…

Decidualized tissues are characterized by the intensive outgrowth of the microvasculature. Several angiogenic factors are assumed to be involved during the drastic change in the vasculature occurring in the process of decidualization. We ex…
