Increased expression of c-fos protein associated with increased matrix metalloproteinase-9 protein expression in the endometrium of endometriotic patients
This study found that c-fos protein expression is increased in the endometrium of women with endometriosis, and this increase correlates with elevated matrix metalloproteinase-9 protein expression.
