Glycosaminoglycan Adenogenesis Factors: Immunohistochemical Expression in Endometriosis Tissues Compared with the Endometrium.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory pathology estrogen-dependent. It is a condition affecting 5%-10% of women of reproductive age worldwide. Recent evidence indicating an embryological origin of endometriosis has provided new insights into its pathogenesis and potential therapeutic approaches.

Prototype Salivary Assay for Quantification of Two Biomarkers for In Vitro Diagnosis of Endometriosis.

Endometriosis, a very common disease in women, is characterized by endometrial structures outside the uterine cavity. The lack of a reliable noninvasive diagnostic test and the often nonspecific symptoms of this pathology are responsible for the delay in definitive diagnosis of this disease. Recently, through a proteomics approach, our research group has identified two potential diagnostic markers for endometriosis in serum (Zn-alpha2-glycoprotein and complement C3 precursor).

[Acute cholangitis due to Candida glabrata and Klebsiella pneumoniae].

Acute cholangitis is a bile duct infection associated with bile duct obstruction. Bile culture is positive in most cases, and the most frequent etiological agent is Escherichia coli. Candida sp acute cholangitis is a rare finding, which is more common in patients with immunosuppression, use of corticosteroids, prolonged antibiotic treatment or surgical procedures of the bile duct.

Pathogenesis of Endometriosis: Focus on Adenogenesis-related Factors.

Endometriosis can be defined as the presence of the endometrium outside the uterine cavity. It affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and causes infertility, chronic pain, and deterioration of the quality of life. Since the identification of the disease, various pathogenetic mechanisms have been proposed, such as retrograde menstruation, coelomic metaplasia, hormonal imbalance, stem cell involvement, and alterations in epigenetic regulation.

Adenogenesis Factors FGF7, FGF10, FGF23, IFN-τ and HGF in Endometriosis Tissue Respect to Eutopic Endometrium: An Immunohistochemical Study.

Endometriosis is a pathological condition defined by the occurrence of endometrial glandular and stromal structures in anatomical compartments different from the uterine cavity. Endometriosis is a genetic polymorphism, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease. This very common pathological entity causes a high level of morbidity in patients; it is also considered one of the most important causes of infertility.
