Activation of p38 MAPK in the rostral ventromedial medulla by visceral noxious inputs transmitted via the dorsal columns may contribute to pelvic organ cross-sensitization in rats with endometriosis
Neuroscience ·doi:10.1016/j.neuroscience.2015.02.021

Whether visceral organ cross-sensitization is involved in endometriosis-associated pain remains elusive. Previous studies have shown that visceral noxious stimuli may trigger a cascade of signal transductions in the rostral ventromedial med…

Upregulation of α2δ−1 Calcium Channel Subunit in the Spinal Cord Contributes to Pelvic Organ Cross-Sensitization in a Rat Model of Experimentally-Induced Endometriosis
Neurochemical research ·doi:10.1007/s11064-015-1592-3

Pelvic organ cross-sensitization, also termed as viscero-visceral referred hyperalgesia, is a major contributor to painful endometriosis. Its underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Clinical and basic studies have shown that gabapentin, …

TSLP induced by estrogen stimulates secretion of MCP-1 and IL-8 and growth of human endometrial stromal cells through JNK and NF-κB signal pathways.
International journal of clinical and experimental pathology

It has reported that human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) express thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), and TSLP concentrations in the serum and peritoneal fluid were higher in women with endometriosis. Endometriosis is an estrogen-depende…
