The etiology and pathogenesis of endometriosis are complex with both genetic and
environmental factors contributing to disease risk. Genome-wide association studies …

Endometriosis is a steroid-dependent complex disease. The oestrogen receptor plays an
important role by mediating oestrogen action and eutopic or ectopic endometrium …

STUDY QUESTION Are genetic effects on endometrial gene expression tissue specific
and/or associated with reproductive traits and diseases? SUMMARY ANSWER Analyses of …

Endometriosis is a common estrogen-dependent gynecological disease influenced by
multiple genetic and environmental factors. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have …

BACKGROUND Genetic variation contributes to the risk of developing endometriosis. This
review summarizes gene mapping studies in endometriosis and the prospects of finding …

Developments in high-throughput genotyping technology have driven discovery of genomic
regions associated with an increased risk of endometriosis. In all, 16 genomic regions have …

Abstract The PvuII (C> T), XbaI (A> G) and (TA) n polymorphisms of ESR1 gene are
potentially associated with susceptibility to endometriosis. A meta-analysis was conducted to …

Endometriosis is a chronic neuro-inflammatory disorder the defining feature of which is the
growth of tissue (lesions) that resembles the endometrium outside the uterus. Estimates of …

The endometrium is a complex and dynamic tissue essential for fertility and implicated in
many reproductive disorders. The tissue consists of glandular epithelium and vascularised …

OBJECTIVE: Genetic as well as hormonal factors are known to influence the development
and clinical course of endometriosis. We aimed to investigate the association among 10 …
