Our results suggest that compared with control women, higher colony formation of Escherichia coli in menstrual blood and endotoxin levels in menstrual fluid and peritoneal fluid in women with endometriosis may promote Toll-like receptor 4-mediated growth of endometriosis. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 書誌情報 | Fertility and Sterility 巻 94, 号 7, p. 2860-2863, 発行日 2010-12 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 出版者 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 出版者 | Elsevier Inc. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | ISSN | |||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 収録物識別子タイプ | ISSN | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 収録物識別子 | 00150282 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 書誌レコードID | |||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 収録物識別子タイプ | NCID | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 収録物識別子 | AA00645034 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | DOI | |||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 関連タイプ | isVersionOf | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 識別子タイプ | DOI | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 関連識別子 | 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2010.04.053 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 権利 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 権利情報 | Copyright © 2010 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Published by Elsevier Inc. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 著者版フラグ | |||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 出版タイプ | AM | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 出版タイプResource | http://purl.org/coar/version/c_ab4af688f83e57aa | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 引用 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 内容記述タイプ | Other | ||||||||||||||||||||||||| | 内容記述 | Fertility and Sterility, 94(7), pp.2860-2863; 2010 |
