Abstract excerpt

An aberrant immunologic mechanism has been suggested to be involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Genetic alterations in the vitamin D receptor gene (VDR) may lead to important defects in gene activation that principally affect immune function. We have hypothesized a possible relationship between endometriosis and/or infertility and the VDR polymorphisms (ApaI, TaqI, FokI, and BmsI). The study was a...
