Aldo-keto reductases AKR1C1, AKR1C2 and AKR1C3 may enhance progesterone metabolism in ovarian endometriosis
Chemico-biological interactions ·doi:10.1016/j.cbi.2011.01.003

Endometriosis is a very common disease that is characterized by increased formation of estradiol and disturbed progesterone action. This latter is usually explained by a lack of progesterone receptor B (PR-B) expression, while the role of p…

Laparoscopic Rectal Resection of Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis
Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A ·doi:10.1089/lap.2011.0307

PURPOSE: Deep infiltrating endometriosis with colorectal involvement is a complex disorder, often requiring segmental bowel resection. Complete removal of all visible lesions is considered the adequate treatment of infiltrating endometriosi…

Novel estrogen-related genes and potential biomarkers of ovarian endometriosis identified by differential expression analysis
The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology ·doi:10.1016/j.jsbmb.2011.03.010

In the search for novel biomarkers of endometriosis, we selected 152 genes from the GeneLogic database based on results of genome-wide expression analysis of ovarian endometriosis, plus 20 genes related to estrogen metabolism and action. We…
