Progesterone receptor expression is selectively reduced in adenomyosis among endometriosis-associated lesions: a cross-sectional immunohistochemical study of 118 specimens from 100 women
·doi:10.21203/rs.3.rs-10865216/v1

Abstract Background. Endometriosis and adenomyosis are both oestrogen-dependent and both are treated with progestins, yet response to progestin therapy is not uniform. Progesterone resistance is usually described as a property of endometri…

Immunochemical analysis of iron transporters and M2 macrophages in ovarian endometrioma and clear cell adenocarcinoma
Molecular and clinical oncology ·doi:10.3892/mco.2021.2321

The association between iron ions and endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) has been previously investigated to elucidate EAOC carcinogenesis; however, the dynamics of iron deposition in the endometrial epithelium and endometrial s…

Impaired CXCL4 expression in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) of ovarian cancers arising in endometriosis
Cancer biology & therapy ·doi:10.4161/cbt.20084

Inflammatory cells play important roles in progression of solid neoplasms including ovarian cancers. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) contribute to angiogenesis and immune suppression by modulating microenvironment. Ovarian cancer develo…

Differential expression patterns of CXCR3 variants and corresponding CXC chemokines in clear cell ovarian cancers and endometriosis
Gynecologic Oncology ·doi:10.1016/j.ygyno.2011.05.034

OBJECTIVES: Carcinogenesis of the ovary is often associated with endometriosis. We previously demonstrated that antitumor chemokine receptor CXCR3 was upregulated both in endometriosis and ovarian cancers. Currently, little is known about t…
