摘要: Integrins are ubiquitous cell adhesion molecules that undergo dynamic alterations during the normal menstrual cycle in human endometrium. The alpha v beta 3 vitronectin receptor integrin is expressed endometrium at time of implantation, but its presence delayed assessed to be out phase using classical histological features. To investigate expression this women with endometriosis, we 3-subunit throughout 268 "in-phase" endometrial biopsies, immunohistochemistry. was on epithelium after days 19-20 cycle.

This defect associated nulliparity, inversely stage disease, and occurred despite in-p...
