Endometriosis is considered a benign disease, but with a malignant tumor invasion mechanism. Much research shows that Transcription Factors (TF) play a significant role in the occurrence and development of cancer. However, research on TF in endometriosis is still poorly explored. It is believed that miRNAs can regulate the function of TF in some diseases, including endometriosis. Existing…
I. Evaluation of Ezrin and phosphorylated Ezrin protein expression in lesions of pelvic endometriosisa) The expression of the Ezrin and phosphorylated Ezrin protein will be assessed by immunohistochemistry in samples of topic endometrium topic and pelvic endometriosis (peritoneal, ovarian and bowel) from patients with endometriosis and endometrial samples from patients without the disease…

Endometriosis is a benign gynecologic disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of misplaced endometrial cells. The retrograde menstruation theory, also known as Sampson's theory, proposes that viable endometrial tissue is refluxed through the fallopian tubes during menstruation and implants on peritoneal surface or pelvic organs. This peritoneal reflux could be a necessary but not suf…
