Interleukin-33 promotes invasiveness of human ovarian endometriotic stromal cells through the ST2/MAPK/MMP-9 pathway activated by 17β-estradiol
Taiwanese journal of obstetrics & gynecology ·doi:10.1016/j.tjog.2021.05.013

OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent, benign, and chronic gynecological disorder occurring in women of reproductive age. Although the pathogenesis of endometriosis is poorly understood, implantation theory indicates that viable…
