Current thought in reproductive endocrinology suggests hat endometriosis-associated subfertility may be the result of an adverse influence of activated immunocompetent cells on fertilization and embryo development. Inflammatory ediators suc…
Although present consensus holds that endometriosis-associated subfertility is the result of an adverse effect of hyperactivated macrophages on early reproductive events, most treatments for endometriosis are directed at the suppression of …
Current evidence suggests that peritoneal inflammatory cell hyperactivation may be the essential pathologic abnormality in patients with endometriosis-associated subfertility. In these experiments we utilized an animal model to evaluate the…
Early stages of endometriosis have been shown to be associated with infertility. The pathophysiology of this relationship is unclear. To determine if interleukin-1 (IL-1), a peritoneal macrophage product, has any effect on gamete interactio…
