I-43: Expression Profile of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) Signaling Pathway as A Potentional Biomarker in Pathophysiology of Endometriosis

Background MIF via its receptor, CD74, initiates a signaling cascade that leads to proliferation and survival of cells. Also, MIF binding to CD74 activates p38 signaling pathways that lead to positive effect on the expression of COX-2. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gene expression profile of MIF, CD74 and COX-2 in normal, ectopic and eutopic endometrium during menstrual cycle. The e...

P-219: The Role of E-Cadherin Coding Gene (CDH1) in Pathogenesis of Endometriosis

Background: Endometriosis, a gyncological disorder,benign and common cause of infertility, is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma at ectopic locations outside the uterine cavity. Clinical observations have led to the assessment that endometriosis is an invasive disease. Abnormal expression of adhesion molecules such as cadherins is likely to be an important determinant of l...

The Expression of The Autophagy Gene Beclin-1 mRNA and Protein in Ectopic and Eutopic Endometrium of Patients with Endometriosis

P-162: Pathophysiology of Endometriosis is Interacted by MIF, its Receptor and COX-2

Background: Endometriosis is a gynecological disease associated with severe pelvic pain and infertility. Immunological changes that occur in patients with endometriosis include reduced natural killer cell and T-lymphocyte cytotoxicity in the peritoneal fluid, and an elevated number of activated macrophages. MIF via its receptor, CD74, initiates a signaling cascade that leads to proliferation an...

Semi-Quantitative Analysis of HOXA11, Leukemia Inhibitory Factor and Basic Transcriptional Element Binding Protein 1 mRNA Expression in the Mid-Secretory Endometrium of patients with endometriosis

Background: HOXA11 and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and basic transcriptional element binding protein1 (BTEB1) are expressed in endometrium throughout the menstrual cycle and show a dramatic increase during the mid-luteal phase at the time of implantation. In this case-control study, the expression pattern of these mRNA was evaluated in patients with endometriosis at the time of implantatio...
