Female reproductive tract-organ axes.
Frontiers in immunology ·doi:10.3389/fimmu.2023.1110001

The female reproductive tract (FRT) and remote/versatile organs in the body share bidirectional communication. In this review, we discuss the framework of the "FRT-organ axes." Each axis, namely, the vagina-gut axis, uterus-gut axis, ovary-…

Expression of Inducible Microsomal Prostaglandin E Synthase in Local Lesions of Endometriosis Patients
American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989) ·doi:10.1111/j.1600-0897.2006.00466.x

PROBLEM: Recently, an inducible microsomal human prostaglandin E synthase (mPGES) was identified. This enzyme converts the cyclooxygenase (COX) product, prostaglandin (PG) H(2), to PGE(2), an eicosanoid linked to carcinogenesis. Although el…

Increased expression of cyclooxygenase-2 in local lesions of endometriosis patients
American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989) ·doi:10.1034/j.1600-0897.2002.01101.x

PROBLEM: Human endometrial glands contain the highest levels of cyclooxygenase (COX), although whether it is COX-1 and/or COX-2 has not been previously determined. Overexpression of COX-2 may result in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. ME…
