Molecular and Cellular Pathogenesis of Endometriosis
Current women's health reviews ·doi:10.2174/1573404813666170306163448

BACKGROUND: A substantial body of studies supports the view that molecular and cellular features of endometriotic lesions differ from those of eutopic endometrium. Apart from that, evidence exists that the eutopic endometrium from pa-tients…

Endometrial cells from women with endometriosis have increased adhesion and proliferative capacity in response to extracellular matrix components: towards a mechanistic model for endometriosis progression
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/dem262

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, classified as the presence of endometrial cells in ectopic sites, is a debilitating disease causing pain and infertility in approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. It is associated with the aberrant expres…

Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2005.08.046

ObjectiveTo evaluate the phenotype, proliferative, and differentiation capacities in vitro of stromal cells derived from peritoneal, ovarian, and deeply infiltrating endometriosis.DesignExperimental study using phase contrast microscopy, im…
