Study questionDoes endometrial gene expression change across consecutive cycles and after endometrial injury?Summary answerAlthough paired endometrial samples collected from the same woman across two consecutive cycles show greater similari…

BackgroundWith the existence of various frozen embryo transfer (FET) methods currently used in the field of assisted reproductive technologies, the debate surrounding which of these is superior remains. All FET protocols aim to prime the en…

BACKGROUND: Endocannabinoids are small lipid molecules that have critical roles in cellular proliferation and function. They are produced locally with their concentrations controlled via the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The important cellu…

Natural variability in menstrual cycle length, coupled with rapid changes in endometrial gene expression, makes it difficult to accurately define and compare different stages of the endometrial cycle. Here we develop and validate a method f…

Endocannabinoids mediate cellular functions and their activity is controlled by a complex system of enzymes, membrane receptors and transport molecules. Endocannabinoids are present in endometrium, a cyclical regenerative tissue requiring t…

Endometriosis is a complex disease, influenced by genetic factors. Genetic markers associated with endometriosis exist at chromosome 1p36.12 and lead to altered expression of the long intergenic non-coding RNA 339 (LINC00339), however, the …

STUDY QUESTION: Are genetic effects on endometrial gene expression tissue specific and/or associated with reproductive traits and diseases? SUMMARY ANSWER: Analyses of RNA-sequence data and individual genotype data from the endometrium iden…

Gene expression varies markedly across the menstrual cycle and expression levels for many genes are under genetic control. We analyzed gene expression and mapped expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in endometrial tissue samples from …

STUDY QUESTION: Do endometriosis risk-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) found at the 12q22 locus have effects on vezatin ( ITALIC! VEZT) expression? SUMMARY ANSWER: The original genome-wide association study (GWAS) SNP (rs10…

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological condition; cutaneous endometriosis is a subtype of endometriosis. Although cutaneous endometriosis involving the abdominal wall is not common, preoperative diagnosis of cutaneous endometriosis can be…

ObjectiveTo raise awareness between laparoscopists about umbilical endometriosis and to recommend the appropriate management measure for this rare but easily treatable condition.DesignCase reports and literature review.SettingWomen presente…
