Epigenetic Dynamics of HOXA10 Gene in Infertile Women With Endometriosis.

Endometriosis, which has been considered an epigenetic disease, is a prevalent gynecological disorder worldwide. With an emphasis on changes in the HOXA10 gene expression of the endometrium of women with endometriosis, the aim of this study was to investigate HOXA10 gene expression and its correlation with the epigenetic characteristics of the specific promoter region of the gene in the eutopic and ectopic endometrium of women with endometriosis. Thirty-six patients and 21 healthy fertile women were recruited as participants of this study.
