OBJECTIVE: To study the molecular mechanisms responsible for fibrosis in endometriosis by investigating whether the protein expression levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 3 (S1PR3), one of the five specific receptors of the bioactive…
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting women of reproductive age. A relevant feature of endometriosis is the presence of fibrotic tissue inside and around the lesions, thus contributing to the classic endometriosis-rela…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) pathway involved in the process of fibrosis in adenomyosis? DESIGN: RNA was extracted from paraffin-embedded slices collected from the ectopic endometrium of patients with nodular adenomy…
OBJECTIVE: To study the molecular mechanisms involved in the appearance of the fibrotic trait in endometriosis by investigating whether the signaling pathway of the bioactive sphingolipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) was altered in endomet…
