Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition contributes to the downregulation of progesterone receptor expression in endometriosis lesions
16 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
Endometriosis is a common, estrogen-dependent disease, in which endometrial tissue grows in the peritoneal cavity. These lesions often express low levels of progesterone receptors (PR), which potentially play an important role in the insufficient response to progestin treatment. Here, we uncover an interconnection between the downregulated PR expression and the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in...
