BACKGROUND/AIM: Endometriosis is characterized by the accumulation of immune cells in endometrial lesions and the peritoneal cavity. Macrophages contribute to the growth and neovascularization of endometriotic lesions. Vascular endothelial …
Epidemiological studies suggest that poor nutrition during pregnancy predisposes offspring to the development of lifestyle-related noncommunicable diseases and psychiatric disorders later in life. However, the molecular mechanisms underlyin…
Endometriosis is highly dependent on angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. Prostaglandin E2, an arachidonic acid metabolite, has been shown to promote the formation of new blood and lymphatic vessels. However, the role of another arachidonic …
Abstract Neuroimmune interactions are involved in the development of endometriosis. Here, we examined the role of a neuropeptide, calcitonin gene–related peptide (CGRP), and its receptor, receptor activity–modifying protein (RAMP) 1, in gro…
Lymphangiogenesis is related to the growth of endometriosis. Here, we examined whether vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 1 (VEGFR1) signaling plays a role in lymphangiogenesis during endometriosis. Endometrial fragments fro…
Background: Relaxin (RLX)-2, produced by the corpus luteum and placenta, is known to be potentially effective in fibrotic diseases of the heart, lungs, kidneys, and bladder; however, its effectiveness in endometriosis has not yet been inves…
Abstract Angiogenesis is critical in maintenance of endometrial tissues. Here, we examined the role of VEGF receptor 1 (VEGFR1) signaling in angiogenesis and tissue growth in an endometriosis model. Endometrial fragments were implanted into…
