Endometriosis is a chronic disease occurring during the reproductive stage of women.Although there is only limited association between endometriosis and gynecological cancers with regard to clinical features, the molecular basis of the rela…

Cancer predisposition genes (CPGs) are genes in which inherited mutations confer highly or moderately increased risks of developing cancer. Identification of these genes and understanding the biological mechanisms that underlie them is cruc…

As a cellular process that changes epithelial cells to mesenchymal cells, Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays important roles in development and cancer metastasis. Recent studies on cancer metastasis have identified many new susce…

Pediatric cancer (PC), that is cancer occurring in children, is the leading cause of death among children worldwide, with an incidence of 175,000 per year. Elucidating the genetic abnormalities and underlying cellular mechanisms may provide…

Endometriosis is a chronic disease that affects roughly 5-15 % of women of reproductive age. The pathophysiology of the disease occurrence and progression is unclear. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, non-coding RNAs that have important regulat…

Objective To investigate the expression of B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2(Bcl-2) protein in endometrium of patients with endometriosis and to explore its effect in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.Methods Immunohistochemical assay(SP) was used…

BACKGROUND: p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), a regulator of inflammation, may play a role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM). We studied the effect of SB203580, a p38 MAPK inhibitor, on the development of EM in a mous…
