BACKGROUND: Local pro-inflammatory environment and enhanced cell survival contribute to the endometriosis development. A serine/threonine kinase p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) mediates intracellular signaling of cytokine produc…

Statins are potent inhibitors of the endogenous mevalonate pathway. Besides inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis, statins may also demonstrate anti-inflammatory properties. Inflammation is implicated in the attachment and invasion of endomet…

The main aim of this study is to describe the in vivo temporal and spatial expression of monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) in human endometrial endothelial cells (HEECs) and to compare the in vitro regulation of MCP-1 expression by sex…

Protein kinase B (PKB/Akt), a serine/threonine kinase, regulates the function of many cellular proteins involved in apoptosis and proliferation. It was postulated that there is a higher Akt activity in endometriosis compared with normal end…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the localization of tenascin expression in the endometrium of women without endometriosis and in endometriotic implants, and to determine the in vitro regulation of tenascin by E(2) in these tissues. DESIGN: Exper…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of interleukin-8 (IL-8) receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2 in adenomyosis. DESIGN: Comparative immunohistochemical study. SETTING: Academic medical center. PATIENT(S): Thirty women who had undergone hyster…

Endometriosis is characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial tissues. Statins, inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR), have been shown to decrease proliferation of several mesenchymal tissues. Actions of sta…

BACKGROUND: To clarify the inflammatory nature of adenomyosis, we aimed to investigate the expression of interleukin-8 (IL-8) and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) by immunohistochemistry to determine their putative role in pathophysio…

The elevation of the proinflammatory chemoattractant cytokine levels in ectopic and eutopic endometrium of endometriosis implies an inflammatory basis for this disease. The relationship between endothelial cells and leukocytes is likely to …

BACKGROUND: Although the etiology of endometriosis is not well understood, chemokines and their receptors are believed to play a role in its pathogenesis. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the expression and localization of interleukin-8 (…
