Chemokine bioactivity of RANTES in endometriotic and normal endometrial stromal cells and peritoneal fluid
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/7.2.163

Endometriotic lesions secrete chemokines that recruit immune cells into the peritoneal cavity. The accumulation of these immune cells, especially activated macrophages and T lymphocytes, is thought to mediate inflammatory symptoms associate…

Nuclear Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors α and γ Have Opposing Effects on Monocyte Chemotaxis in Endometriosis
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jcem.86.7.7615

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) alpha and gamma are nuclear receptors that play important roles in inflammatory diseases like ulcerative colitis and arthritis. In this study, we examined the possible role of PPARs in…

Induction of an angiogenic phenotype in endometriotic stromal cell cultures by interleukin-1 
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/6.3.269

Activated peritoneal macrophages are associated with endometriosis and may play a central role in its aetiology by releasing interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) in response to refluxed endometrium. Pari passu with the establishment of endometrioti…
