BACKGROUND: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are essential for extracellular matrix remodelling and may contribute to the development of endometriosis. Transplantation of endometrium onto the chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) results i…
Peritoneal endometriosis is the result of ectopic implantation and growth of endometrium tissue that has been regurgitated into the abdominal cavity during menstruation. We have previously shown that menstrual effluent induces epithelial to…
The chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) bioassay was used to investigate the early pathogenesis of endometriosis. Endometrial fragments were explanted onto the CAM. The grafts including the surrounding CAM were excised at 24, 48 or …
ObjectiveTo assess the angiogenic activity of peritoneal fluid in women with minimal to mild endometriosis and to investigate the relationship between this activity and the concentration of macrophage-derived angiogenic factors and clinical…
ObjectiveOur purpose was to examine the immunohistochemical properties of epithelial cells in peritoneal fluid and to compare the staining characteristics with cells of endometrium, menstrual effluent, peritoneum, and endometriotic lesions.…
ObjectiveTo detect the expression of integrins and E-cadherin in cells from peritoneal fluid (PF), endometrium, menstrual effluent, peritoneum, and endometriotic lesions during the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle.DesignAn immu…
