The role of NF-kappaB in endometriosis
Frontiers in bioscience (Scholar edition) ·doi:10.2741/s327

The nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor playing vital roles in innate immunity and other processes involving cellular survival, proliferation, and differentiation. This review highlights the im…

Apoptosis and endometriosis
Frontiers in bioscience (Elite edition) ·doi:10.2741/e277

Apoptosis is a distinctive form of programmed cell death resulting in the efficient elimination of cells without eliciting an inflammatory response. Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrial cells with capacity to avoid …
