Decidualization of the endometrium and endometriosis involves the morphological and biochemical reprogramming of the estrogen-primed proliferative stromal compartment under the continuing influence of progesterone. Here, we evaluated the in…
miR-196b targets c-myc and Bcl-2 expression, inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in endometriotic stromal cells
CONTEXT: Accumulating evidence suggests that various epigenetic aberrations play definite roles in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to determine the epigenetically silenced genes by histone deacet…
STUDY QUESTION: What is the global expression pattern of microRNAs (miRNAs) in endometriotic stromal cells and is miR-196b involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Several miRNAs are aberrantly expressed in endometrio…
PROBLEM: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the involvement of death receptor (DR) 6 in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. METHODS OF STUDY: Endometriotic cyst stromal cells (ECSCs) and normal endometrial stromal cells (NESCs) were is…
Endometriosis, a common, benign, estrogen-dependent disease affecting 3-10% of women of reproductive age, is characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial tissue that is found primarily in the peritoneum, ovaries and rectovaginal septu…
