BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women living in developing countries. Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a member of the nuclear receptor family, which regulates the development and proliferation of cancer. How…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a multifactorial estrogen dependent gynecological disease characterized by implantation of functional endometrial tissue at ectopic positions. Though this disease is benign, it is associated with an increased ri…

BACKGROUND: Human endometrium harbors stem/progenitor cells (SPCs) that may contribute to the establishment of endometriosis when seeded outside the uterus. Oct-4, C-kit and Musashi-1 are some of the many proteins used to characterize SPCs,…

Endometriosis is a polygenic and multifactorial gynecology situation which might be associated with angiogenesis. In the current study we assess the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) - 2578 A/C, and + 936 C/T polymorphisms i…

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that different cytokine profiles may exist in the follicular fluid of endometriosis (EM) patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF), as these differences may provide insights into t…

Endometriosis is a chronic disease that affects roughly 5-15 % of women of reproductive age. The pathophysiology of the disease occurrence and progression is unclear. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, non-coding RNAs that have important regulat…
