Peritoneal restoration by repurposing vitamin D inhibits ovarian cancer dissemination via blockade of the TGF-β1/thrombospondin-1 axis
·doi:10.1016/j.matbio.2022.03.003

Ovarian cancer (OvCa), a lethal gynecological malignancy, disseminates to the peritoneum. Mesothelial cells (MCs) act as barriers in the abdominal cavity, preventing the adhesion of cancer cells. However, in patients with OvCa, they are tra…

Establishment and characterization of cell lines from human endometrial epithelial and mesenchymal cells from patients with endometriosis
F&S science ·doi:10.1016/j.xfss.2020.09.001

Objective To establish and characterize cell lines derived from human endometrial epithelial cells (ECs) and mesenchymal cells (MCs) from patients with and without endometriosis. Design In vitro experimental study. Setting University and na…

A novel mechanism of neovascularization in peritoneal dissemination via cancer-associated mesothelial cells affected by TGF-β derived from ovarian cancer
·doi:10.3892/or.2017.6104

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is believed to cause peritoneum dissemination through microenvironmental cell‑to-cell communication between the tumor and mesothelium, leading to the further acquisition of progressive and metastatic potentia…

Effective salvage of acute massive uterine bleeding using intrauterine balloon tamponade in a uterine adenomyosis patient on dienogest
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research ·doi:10.1111/j.1447-0756.2012.02005.x

We present the case of a 37-year-old nulliparous woman in whom acute massive uterine bleeding during dienogest therapy was successfully treated using intrauterine balloon tamponade. Abnormal uterine bleeding and several cases of profuse ble…

Possible involvement of the E-cadherin gene in genetic susceptibility to endometriosis
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/des080

BACKGROUND: Endometriotic cells display invasive characteristics, despite their benign histological appearance. Recently, the epithelial-mesenchymal transition, in which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal and migratory properties, has att…
