Abstract:
Objective:To study the expression of CD44s and fibronectin in endometriosis.Methods:Expression of CD44s and fibronectin were evaluated by immunohistochemistry method in entopic from 22 patients and in ectopic from 45 patients with endometriosis and the endometrial tissues of 20 non-endometriosis.Results:CD44s is restricted to epithelial cells;fibronectin is restricted to stroma,their expression remained constants thoughout the menstrual cycle.Decreased expression of CD44s and fibronectin in epithelial and stroma in endometriosis was found in eutopic endometrium(P
