The expression of angiotensin II receptors mRNA in granulosa-lutein cells in endometriosis patients who underwent ovarian surgery before in vitro fertilization

·doi:10.12891/ceog4904.2019

Angiogenesis is important to folliculogenesis and oocyte maturation. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in follicular fluid (FF) induces folliculogenesis. Angiotensin II is involved in angiogenesis through angiotensin II receptors. T…

Supplementary Material for: The Expression of MAS1, an Angiotensin (1–7) Receptor, in the Eutopic Proliferative Endometria of Endometriosis Patients

·doi:10.6084/m9.figshare.6754232

Background/Aim: We demonstrated that AT1 and AT2 are expressed and both pathways balance the renin-angiotensin system in endometriosis. MAS1, a specific receptor of angiotensin (1–7), opposes AT1 pathway-associated tissue remodelling. It is…
