Usefulness and limits of CA-125 in diagnosis of endometriosis without associated ovarian endometriomas

[Hormone responsiveness of endometriosis].
Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine
article 2001
Immunohistochemical localization of aromatase and apoptosis-associated proteins in ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma arising from ovarian endometriosis

Oestrogen receptor-alpha gene polymorphism is associated with endometriosis, adenomyosis and leiomyomata
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/16.1.51

Endometriosis, adenomyosis and leiomyomata develop in women of reproductive age and regress after menopause or ovariectomy, suggesting that they grow in an oestrogen-dependent fashion. We investigated whether polymorphism in the oestrogen r…

Expression of leptin receptor in human endometrium and fluctuation during the menstrual cycle
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jcem.85.5.6567

Leptin is secreted by adipocytes and regulates appetite through interaction with hypothalamic leptin receptors (OB-R). Accumulated evidence shows that leptin is involved in the stimulation of reproductive functions and that local expression…

article 2000
Progesterone Induction of 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 2 during the Secretory Phase Occurs in the Endometrium of Estrogen-Dependent Benign Diseases But Not in Normal Endometrium
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jcem.85.9.6829

In the human endometrium, inactivation of 17beta-estradiol to estrone is catalyzed by 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (17betaHSD2). Previous studies have shown that the 17betaHSD2 activity in the endometrium is elevated during th…

article 1999
Detection of aromatase cytochrome P-450 in endometrial biopsy specimens as a diagnostic test for endometriosis
Fertility and Sterility ·doi:10.1016/s0015-0282(99)00424-0
review 1999
Expression of Aromatase Cytochrome P450 in Eutopic Endometrium and Its Application as a Diagnostic Test for Endometriosis
Gynecologic and obstetric investigation ·doi:10.1159/000052865

Endometriotic implants, like other estrogen-dependent tumors, contain both estrogen receptors and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom), suggesting that at a local level, endometriotic implants produce estrogens, which may be involved in tis…
