To investigate the effect of medrogestone on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover under conditions of estrogen withdrawal, premenopausal women with endometriosis were treated with goserelin (Zoladex), combined with either placebo (g…
BACKGROUND: Estrogen has been hypothesized to have a protective and antipsychotic-like effect in women at risk for schizophrenia. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between menstrual cycle and/or estrogen levels an…
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether alterations in the secretion and regulation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors are present in uterine endometrial cells from endometriosis patients. STUDY DESIGN: In an in vitro study, …
Proliferation of granulosa cells is inversely related to differentiation and hormone production. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the intrafollicular and serum steroid concentrations and to compare these results to granulosa cell p…
Essential features of endometrial physiology involve the extracellular matrix (ECM). In the pathogenesis of endometriosis, interactions of endometriosis cells with ECM can be postulated. Two systems of secreted proteases in the endometrium,…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is one of the most common benign gynaecological diseases, and attachment of retrogradely shed viable endometrial cells is considered to be important in its development. CD44 is a multifunctional adhesion molecule t…
OBJECTIVE: To examine the regulation of endometrial integrin expression by estrogens and progestins in vitro. DESIGN: Immunocytochemical study. SETTING: Academic research unit. PATIENT(S): Twenty-five regularly cycling women without endo…
Extracellular matrix degradation by secreted proteases, e.g. plasmin, is essential for endometrial functions such as blastocyst implantation and menstruation. We investigated whether the expression of plasmin(ogen) activating or inhibiting …
OBJECTIVE: To identify factors influencing the development of endometrial autografts in a monkey model of endometriosis. DESIGN: Prospective, comparative study. SETTING: Animal research unit. SUBJECTS: Thirty regularly cycling cynomolgus…
In this review the medical therapy of hyperandrogenism is evaluated both by a literature review and by our own experiences at a large outpatient clinic for patients with symptoms of hyperandrogenism. The clinic was established over 15 years…
