Abstract

study question: Is there any combined effect between inflammation and stress reaction on Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated growth of endometriotic cells? summary answer: A combined effect of local inflammation and stress reaction in the pelvic environment may be involved in TLR4mediated growth of endometriotic stromal cells.
