Inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor restores decidualization markers in stromal fibroblasts from women with endometriosis
·doi:10.5301/je.5000198

Purpose Decidualization comprises specific biochemical and morphological changes in uterine endometrium essential for establishment of pregnancy. This process is abnormal in women with endometriosis, a disorder in which endometrial-like tis…

The protein kinase A pathway-regulated transcriptome of endometrial stromal fibroblasts reveals compromised differentiation and persistent proliferative potential in endometriosis
Endocrinology ·doi:10.1210/en.2009-0923

Intrinsic abnormalities in transplanted eutopic endometrium are believed to contribute to the pathogenesis of pelvic endometriosis. Herein we investigated transcriptomic differences in human endometrial stromal fibroblasts (hESFs) from wome…

Unique transcriptome, pathways, and networks in the human endometrial fibroblast response to progesterone in endometriosis
Biology of reproduction ·doi:10.1095/biolreprod.110.086181

Eutopic endometrium in endometriosis has molecular evidence of resistance to progesterone (P(4)) and activation of the PKA pathway in the stromal compartment. To investigate global and temporal responses of eutopic endometrium to P(4), we c…

Dose-dependent insulin regulation of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 in human endometrial stromal cells is mediated by distinct signaling pathways
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jc.2004-1676

IGF binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) is a major product of decidualized human endometrial stromal cells and decidua, and as a modulator of IGF action and/or by independent mechanisms, it regulates cell growth and differentiation and embryonic im…
