Activin A stimulates interleukin 8 and vascular endothelial growth factor release from cultured human endometrial stromal cells: possible implications for the pathogenesis of endometriosis
Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719111434542

BACKGROUND: Activin A is an endometrial secretory product involved in inflammation and angiogenesis. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of activin A and its antagonist follistatin on interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and vascular endoth…

Altered expression of activin, cripto, and follistatin in the endometrium of women with endometrioma
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.03.048

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the expression pattern of activin A, activin receptors, and activin modulators messenger RNA (mRNA) in the eutopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis at different phases of the menstrual cycle and to evaluate …

Impaired CRH and Urocortin Expression and Function in Eutopic Endometrium of Women with Endometriosis
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jc.2010-2263

CONTEXT: Women with endometriosis have altered endometrial function. CRH and urocortin (Ucn) are neuropeptides produced by human endometrium and modulate endometrial decidualization. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate endometrial mRNA expression of CRH…

Omega 3 Fatty Acids Counteract IL-8 and Prostaglandin E2 Secretion Induced by TNF-α in Cultured Endometrial Stromal Cells
·doi:10.5301/je.2011.8331

Background Inflammation is part of the normal host response to infection and injury and excess inflammation may lead to acute or chronic diseases. Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disease characterized by increased endometrial producti…

Urocortin 2 and urocortin 3 in endometriosis: evidence for a possible role in inflammatory response
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/gar020

Urocortin 2 (Ucn 2) and urocortin 3 (Ucn 3) are neuropeptides expressed by human endometrium. This study evaluated (i) the expression of Ucn 2 and Ucn 3 mRNA in endometriotic lesions and in endometrium of women with endometriosis; (ii) the …
