[ 1 ] - Role of Oxidative Stress in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome is one of the most common causes of infertility. 6 to 8 percent of women of childbearing age have this endocrine disorder. Biochemical abnormalities in these patients lead to imbalance of female hormones and increased androgens, which can have consequences such as menstrual cycle disorder, hirsutism, acne vulgaris and androgenic alopecia. Despite the long...
[ 2 ] - The Effect of Imbalanced Progesterone Receptor-A/-B Ratio on Gelatinase Expressions in Endometriosis
Objective Objective: Gelatinases degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) components to make physiological remodeling and contribute to pathological tissue destruction in endometriosis. It is known that gelatinases’ function is resistant to suppression by progesterone in endometriosis. The ability of progesterone to impact gene expression depends on the progesterone receptor-A/-B (PR-A/PR-B) ratio. A...
[ 3 ] - P-136: Association of Matrix MetalloProteinase- 2,-9 Overexpression and Imbalance PR-A/PR-B Ratio in Endometriosis
Background: Matrix MetalloProteinases (MMPs) degrade extracellular matrix components to provide normal remodeling and contribute to pathological tissue destruction and cell migration in endometriosis. It is accepted that MMPs are resistant to suppression by progesterone in endometriotic tissues. The physiological effects of progesterone are mediated by its two progesterone receptor (PR) isoform...
