Vascular endothelial growth factor gene polymorphisms are associated with the risk of developing adenomyosis
doi:10.1002/em.20455 ·PMID:19197986

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a major mediator of angiogenesis and vascular permeability, may play a key role in the development of adenomyosis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether these four VEGF polymorphisms (-2…

Polymorphisms in the matrix metalloproteinase-2 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 and the risk of human adenomyosis
doi:10.1002/em.20375 ·PMID:18288718

The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) may contribute to the development of adenomyosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) i…

No association of endometriosis with galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase mutations in a Chinese population
doi:10.1002/em.20200 ·PMID:16416427

The linkage between endometriosis and galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase gene (GALT) mutations is controversial. In this study, the prevalence of the most common GALT mutations, Q188R and N314D, was assessed in women with endometriosi…
