Abstract
Endometriosis has several distinguishing features in the ectopic endometrium, including chronic inflammation and fibrosis. According to the retrograde menstruation theory, endometriotic cells are derived from eutopic endometrial cells, and adhesion of endometrial cells to the extracellular matrix can be the initial step in the development of endometriosis. Therefore, we hypothesized that cell adhesion, which mediates a sequence of events in the...
