Although adenomyosis is a benign uterine disease, it can turn malignant in rare instances. Cystic adenomyosis is a rare variation of adenomyosis, arising from which 8 cases of clear cell carcinoma have been reported. However, to the best of…
BackgroundSince the human papillomavirus vaccines do not eliminate preexisting infections, nonsurgical alternative approaches to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) have been required. We previously reported that FOXP4 (forkhead box tr…
Uterine leiomyomas are smooth-muscle tumors originating in the myometrium and are the most common pelvic tumors in women of reproductive age. Symptomatic tumors may result in abnormal uterine bleeding, bladder dysfunction, pelvic discomfort…
Periodic myometrial contraction is one of the important uterine functions to achieve embryo implantation and parturition. Although it is well-known that the mammalian myometrium is composed of longitudinal (outer) and circular (inner) layer…
BackgroundWe previously reported that tamoxifen (TAM)-induced ovarian hyperstimulation (OHS) is associated with high serum concentrations of estradiol in premenopausal women with breast cancer. To investigate risk factors for TAM-induced OH…
Although histological grade and muscular invasion are related to the malignant behaviors of endometrial endometrioid carcinoma, lymphatic and/or distant metastases are unexpectedly encountered, even in patients in the low-risk group. To re-…
PROBLEM: The human endometrium periodically breaks down and regenerates. As platelets have been reported to contribute to the tissue remodeling process, we examined the possible involvement of platelets in endometrial regeneration. METHOD O…
ObjectiveTo investigate the impact of estrogen contained in oral contraceptives (OCs) on the action of progestin on ovarian endometrioma epithelial cells.DesignExperimental in vitro study and immunohistochemical analysis.SettingUniversity h…
A number of biologically active peptides have been proposed to regulate function and differentiation of reproductive organs in an autocrine and/or paracrine fashion. Regulation of the local concentrations of these peptides is one of the imp…
A clinical case that suggested the involvement of blood coagulation cascades in the inflammation reaction induced by leakage of ovarian endometriotic cysts was encountered. Here, a rapid elevation in plasma D-dimer level (119.6 micro g/ml) …
Indirect immunofluorescence staining revealed that endometrial stromal cells (ESC) in the ectopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis or adenomyosis expressed aminopeptidase N/cluster of differentiation (CD) 13 antigen and neutral en…
