Peer Review #1 of "TET1 may contribute to hypoxia-induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition of endometrial epithelial cells in endometriosis (v0.1)"
·doi:10.7287/peerj.9950v0.1/reviews/1

Background. Endometriosis (EMs) is a non-malignant gynecological disease, whose pathogenesis remains to be clarified. Recent studies have found that hypoxia induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) as well as epigenetic modification …

A conditionally replicative adenovirus, CRAd-S-pK7, can target endometriosis with a cell-killing effect
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deq137

BACKGROUND: Novel therapeutic approaches for endometriosis based on molecular strategies may prove to be useful. Conditionally replicative adenoviruses (CRAds) are designed to exploit key differences between target and normal cells. The wil…

0013-7227/08/$15.00/0 Endocrinology 149(3):1180–1189 Printed in U.S.A. Copyright © 2008 by The Endocrine Society doi: 10.1210/en.2007-1168 Cyclooxygenase-2 Regulates Survival, Migration, and Invasion of Human Endometriotic Cells through Multiple Mechanism

by the presence of functional endometrial glandular epithelium and stroma outside the uterine cavity (1–4). Endometriosis usually develops in the pelvic organs such as the peritoneum, ovaries, fallopian tubes, outside surface of the uterus,…

Cyclooxygenase-2 Regulates Survival, Migration, and Invasion of Human Endometriotic Cells through Multiple Mechanisms
Endocrinology ·doi:10.1210/en.2007-1168

Endometriosis is a debilitating disease characterized by the presence of functional endometrial glandular epithelium and stroma outside the uterine cavity that affects up to 20% of women of child-bearing age. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), a rat…

review 2003
Endometriose - eine Stammzellerkrankung?
Zentralblatt fur Gynakologie ·doi:10.1055/s-2003-42276

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent and chronic disease with an unknown etiology and pathogenesis. It is however likely and well accepted that retrograde menstruation of endometrial cells into the pelvic cavity is the origin of this dise…

article 2001
Identification of an Invasive, N-Cadherin-Expressing Epithelial Cell Type in Endometriosis Using a New Cell Culture Model
The American journal of pathology ·doi:10.1016/s0002-9440(10)63030-1
review 2001
In Search of Pathogenic Mechanisms in Endometriosis: The Challenge for Molecular Cell Biology
Current molecular medicine ·doi:10.2174/1566524013363168

Endometriosis, defined histologically as the presence of endometrium-like glands and stroma outside the uterus, is a chronic, invasive and metastasising disease. It shares features with malignant tumours (invasion and metastasis) but is not…

review 1999
The putative role of cell adhesion molecules in endometriosis: can we learn from tumour metastasis?
Molecular medicine today ·doi:10.1016/s1357-4310(99)01497-5

Endometriosis, one of the most frequent diseases in gynaecology, is a considerable threat to the physical, psychological and social integrity of women. The etiology and pathogenesis of this important disease, defined as the ectopic location…

review 1998
Tracing cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in endometriosis
Human reproduction update ·doi:10.1093/humupd/4.5.724

The aetiology and pathogenesis of endometriosis, defined as the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, is largely unknown. In this paper we present and discuss possibilities to study the putative pathogenic properti…

article 1997
Nonmalignant epithelial cells, potentially invasive in human endometriosis, lack the tumor suppressor molecule E-cadherin.
The American journal of pathology

Endometriosis is one of the most frequent diseases in gynecology. It is a histologically defined nonmalignant disease in which endometrium-like tissue is found outside the uterus (for example, peritoneum, gut, or lung). The pathogenesis of …

Invasiveness of endometriotic cells in vitro
Lancet (London, England) ·doi:10.1016/s0140-6736(95)92474-4

The pathogenesis of endometriosis is not known. The currently favoured theory is that viable endometrial cells, shed from the endometrium into the pelvic cavity by retrograde menstruation, reattach and invade other tissues. We used a collag…
