Increased concentrations of the fibronectin glycoprotein can cause ectopic tissue growth patients with endometriosis and the formation of various cancerous tumors. Furthermore, fibronectin binding to its receptors from the EDA (Extra Domain…

Endometriosis is a sex hormone-dependent, painful disease that affects 10-15% of women worldwide with no definitive cure, and current treatments are not always effective. This limitation is mainly due to gaps in our knowledge about the mech…
