Current thought in reproductive endocrinology suggests hat endometriosis-associated subfertility may be the result of an adverse influence of activated immunocompetent cells on fertilization and embryo development. Inflammatory ediators suc…
ObjectiveTo determine the effect of pentoxifylline on early reproductive performance in an animal model for endometriosis.DesignPreclinical blinded study in a rodent model.SettingAnimal research laboratory.ParticipantsSexually mature female…
Current evidence suggests that peritoneal inflammatory cell hyperactivation may be the essential pathologic abnormality in patients with endometriosis-associated subfertility. In these experiments we utilized an animal model to evaluate the…
Early stages of endometriosis have been shown to be associated with infertility. The pathophysiology of this relationship is unclear. To determine if interleukin-1 (IL-1), a peritoneal macrophage product, has any effect on gamete interactio…
Macrophage hyperactivation has been postulated to be the pathologic aberration in patients suffering from endometriosis-associated subfertility. In this report an in vivo model for macrophage-mediated infertility is described. Populations o…
It has been demonstrated that PF contains some factor or factors that interfere with effective gamete interaction as determined by an in vitro animal assay. PF from patients with mild endometriosis has an increased activity of this substanc…
