Interleukin-37 in endometriosis
Immunology letters ·doi:10.1016/j.imlet.2017.03.012

Interleukin-37 (IL-37) has been identified as a novel anti-inflammatory cytokine. The present study aimed to evaluate the expression of IL-37 in serum and in peritoneal fluid to determine its clinical significance in endometriosis. Enzyme-l…

Soluble ST2 and IL-33: Potential markers of endometriosis in the Tunisian population
Immunology letters ·doi:10.1016/j.imlet.2015.05.002

Interleukin-33 is an IL-1 family cytokine which signals via its T1/ST2 receptor, and acts as a key regulator of inflammation. This study aims to measure the expression of soluble ST2 (sST2) and IL-33 in endometriosis. We investigated thirty…

Vascular endothelial growth factor (−460 C/T, +405 G/C, and +936 C/T) polymorphisms and endometriosis risk in Tunisian population
Systems biology in reproductive medicine ·doi:10.3109/19396368.2015.1041622

The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a major angiogenic factor, is known to play an important role in the development of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of three VEGF (-460 C/T, +405 G/C, an…

Glutathione S-transferase M1 and T1 gene polymorphisms and risk of endometriosis in Tunisian population
Human fertility (Cambridge, England) ·doi:10.3109/14647273.2014.989925

OBJECTIVE: An association between endometriosis and the glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1)- and GSTT1-related genes has been proposed on account of the detoxification properties of the GST enzymes. The aim of the present study was to inve…
