Angiogenesis is essential for endometrial growth and repair, and disruption of this process may lead to common disorders of women, including menorrhagia and endometriosis. In pregnancy, failure of the endometrial spiral arterioles to underg…
Angiogenic growth factors play a critical role in the cyclic growth and vascularization of normal endometrium. Herein, we report the expression and localization of both basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) and its receptor (FGF-R1; flg) i…
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is associated with hyperplastic endometrium, and angiotensin II may affect cyclic menstruation. Cellular distribution of angiotensin II and its receptor subtypes (AT1 and AT2) in hyperplastic endometria from p…
Angiogenesis is an essential component of endometrial regeneration after menses in preparation for implantation. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a secreted angiogenic peptide with mitogenic activity specific for endothelial and…
