OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings of ovarian cancer in association with endometriotic cysts by detailed comparison of the findings of benign and malignant tumors. METHODS AND MAT…
Increased killer inhibitory receptor 2DL1 expression among natural killer cells in women with pelvic endometriosis
OBJECTIVE: To investigate menstrual cycle changes in expression by eutopic endometrium of a nonclassic human leukocyte antigen, HLA-G, which binds to the killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) 2DL4 (CD158d) on natural killer (NK) cells. …
ObjectiveTo investigate the macrophage response in endometriosis by determining the expression and localization of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-ABC and HLA-DR by the peritoneal fluid (PF) macrophages and PF concentrations of interferon (IF…
PROBLEM: We investigated host immunologic responses to endometriosis by comparing immune cell surface antigens in peripheral blood (PB) and peritoneal fluid (PF) from women with endometriosis with those in PB and PF from other patients. MET…
ObjectiveTo investigate the macrophage response in endometriosis, we determined expression of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-ABC, HLA-DR, and their costimulatory molecules by peritoneal fluid (PF) macrophages.DesignCase-control study of immu…
PROBLEM: Natural killer (NK) dysfunction is considered to contribute to the pathogenesis of endometriosis. In this study, we investigated the host immune response to endometriosis in terms of killer inhibitory receptor (KIR) expression by N…
ObjectiveTo investigate the macrophage response in endometriosis, we determined the expression of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, and CD14 on peritoneal macrophages.DesignCase-control study of imm…
ObjectiveTo investigate host immunologic response to endometriosis in terms of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 expression by macrophages and killer cell inhibitory receptor (KIR) expression by natural killer (NK) cells.DesignCase-c…
