Anti-angiogenic RNAi-based therapy can be considered as a possible strategy for the treatment of endometriosis (EM), which is the most common gynecological disease. Targeted delivery of siRNA therapeutics is a prerequisite for successful tr…
BACKGROUND: Uterine leiomyoma and endometriosis are the most common gynecological diseases in women of reproductive age. A number of data indicate that there are common elements in the pathogenesis of these hyperproliferative conditions. Th…
Endometriosis is a widespread disorder in which a tissue morphologically and physiologically similar to endometrium is observed outside the uterine cavity. Earlier, we identified a number of genes that are overexpressed in ectopic endometri…
For over 100 years, endometriosis, as a chronic, estrogendependent, inflammatory, heritable disease affecting approximately 5-10% of women in reproductive age has been the focus of clinicians and scientists. In spite of numerous environment…
Hypothesis/aims of study. Endometriosis is one of the most pressing problems of gynecology. Clarifying the expression of the estrogen receptor (ESR1) and the progesterone receptor (PGR) genes and polymorphisms in the aromatase (CYP19A1) gen…
In spite on numerous experimental and clinical data molecular mechanisms of endometriosis (EM) - the most common benign tumor of the female reproductive tract still remains obscure . The deciphering enigmas of EM gave a birth to a number of…
We review recent studies dealing with the molecular genetics and basic results of omics analysis of uterine leiomyoma (LM)-a common benign muscle tumor of the uterus. Whole genome studies of LM resulted in the discovery of many new gene net…
Angiogenesis is a process of new blood vessel formation, which plays a significant role in carcinogenesis and the development of diseases associated with pathological neovascularization. An important role in the regulation of angiogenesis b…
Development of gene therapy for endometriosis requires inhibition of vascularization in endometrial lesions. We have previously developed CXCR4 receptor-targeted siRNA carrier L1 and observed efficient RNAi-mediated down-regulation of VEGFA…
Here, we determined basic differentially expressed genes in endometrial lesions compared to eutopic endometrium of the patients with endometriosis (EM). Endometrial biopsy and tissue sampling were performed in ten women with pelvic EM and n…
For over 100 years, endometriosis, as a chronic, estrogen-dependent, inflammatory, heritable disease affecting approximately 5⁻10% of women in reproductive age has been the focus of clinicians and scientists. In spite of numerous environmen…
The hypothesis of three sensitive periods (SP) in development of common gynecological disease external endometriosis (EM) is suggested: I prenatal female genital system development from the stem cells (SC) of Mullerian ducts; II uterine end…
Расшифровка генома человека в сочетании с новыми молекулярно-генетическими технологиями существенно расширила наши представления о патогенетике мультифакторных заболеваний (МФЗ), и положила начало молекулярной медицине, основу которой соста…
Endometriosis (EM) and uterine leiomyoma (UL) are two most frequent benign tumors of monoclonal origin affecting about 30% of all women in their reproductive age. Modern molecular technologies have made a tremendous impact in understanding …
We present a comparative analysis of the allelic polymorphism of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) gene family, including MMP3 (rs3025058), MMP7 (rs11568818), MMP9 (rs17576, rs2250889), MMP12 (rs2276109), and MMP13 (rs2252070), in patients…

Endometriosis is a gynecological disease that affects up to 10%-15% of all reproductive-age women worldwide. It is characterized by the presence of endometrial tissues outside the uterine cavity. Endometriosis is a complex disease; its path…
Endometriosis is a condition in which cells derived from the endometrium grow outside the uterus, e.g. in the peritoneum (external genital endometriosis). As these cells are under the influence of female hormones, major symptoms of endometr…
Polymorphysms of the three genes encoding phase 1 (CYP1A1, mEPH1, and CYP2E2) and the three genes encoding phase 2 (NAT2, GSTM1, and GSTT1) xenobiotic detoxication enzymes were typed by use of PCR in 74 patients with extragenital endometrio…
Wide inter-individual variation of expression of compound metabolic enzymes is determined by polymorphism and may predispose the development of diseases provoked by environmental factors. The combined analysis of phase II detoxification sys…
Endometriosis is a multifactorial disease with possible genetic predisposition and involvement of environmental factors in its pathogenesis. The genetic polymorphism of glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) gene, which codes for glutathione …
A homozygous gene deletion at the glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) locus of genomic DNA from blood spots was studied by PCR in the group of Slavic populations from the north-western and central-eastern regions of European Russia and in …
