endometriosis: a history written by aberrant hoxa10 gene expression and epidermal growth factor (egf) system polymorphism?
نویسندگان
چکیده
endometriosis is a gynecologic disorder characterized by the presence of viable, extrauterine endometrial tissue, predominantly on the ovary and pelvic peritoneum (1-3). typical symptoms consist of pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility (1, 2). this condition takes place only in women of menstrual age, can grow or bleed cyclically and may cause adhesions (1, 2). endometriosis represents a worldwide social disease compromising quality of life (1, 2)....

متن کاملEpidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase-independent signaling by EGF.
The ErbB family of receptors, which includes the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4, mediate signaling by EGF-like polypeptides. To better understand the role of the EGFR tyrosine kinase, we analyzed signaling by a kinase-inactive EGFR (K721M) in ErbB-devoid 32D cells. K721M alone exhibited no detectable signaling capacity, whereas coexpression of K721M with ErbB2,...
متن کاملInhibition of tumor growth by ribozyme-mediated suppression of aberrant epidermal growth factor receptor gene expression.
BACKGROUND Amplification and rearrangement of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene is frequently associated with malignant gliomas. One type of EGFR mutation in primary gliomas results in overexpression of an aberrant EGFR messenger RNA (mRNA) that lacks sequences of exons II through VI of the human EGFR gene. We observed that the aberrantly spliced EGFR mRNA contains a ribozyme cle...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor gene (EGF) polymorphism and risk of melanocytic neoplasia.
A common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) gene modulates the level of transcription of this gene and hence is associated with serum levels of EGF. This variant may be associated with melanoma risk, but conflicting findings have been reported. An Australian melanoma case-control sample was typed for the EGF+61A>G tran...
متن کاملP-182: The Role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Gene Expression in Patients with the History of Endometriosis
Background: Endometriosis is the presence of endometrium- like tissue in sites outside the uterine cavity, primarily on the pelvic peritoneum and ovaries. Ectopic endometrium for replacement and growth require to blood supply. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most important intermediate of locality angiogenesis that product by monocytes and macrophages. This study evaluat...
متن کاملAssociation between the epidermal growth factor gene polymorphism and endometriosis in women from Brazil.
The aim of this study was to verify the association between the epidermal growth factor (EGF) +61 G/A polymorphism and the susceptibility to endometriosis using a case-control design study. The control group included fertile women without endometriosis and the case group included endometriosis patients. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis was used to geno...
