background and objectives: endometrial hyperplasia (eh) is an abnormal overgrowth of endometrium that may lead to endometrial cancer, especially when accompanied by atypia. the treatment of eh is challenging, and previous studies report conflicting results. metformin (dimethyl biguanide) is an anti-diabetic and insulin sensitizer agent, which is supposed to have antiproliferative and anticancer...

BACKGROUND The incidence and death rates of endometrial cancer are alarmingly increasing. The diagnosis and treatment of endometrial cancer is crucial to decreasing mortality. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) belongs to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette transporter family and plays an essential role in anion regulation and tissue homeostasis of various ...

Background: Endometrial hyperplasia (EH) represents a spectrum of irregular morphological alterations, whereby abnormal proliferation the endometrial gland results in increased thickness tissue with alterations glandular architecture (shape and size) an increase gland-to-stroma ratio when compared to endometrium from proliferative phase pf cycle. The aim this study was detect role measurement v...

The endometrium is a hormonally regulated organ that is non-adhesive to embryos throughout most of the menstrual cycle in humans. Endometrial receptivity refers to a hormone-limited period in which the endometrial tissue acquires a functional and transient ovarian steroid-dependent status allowing blastocyst adhesion. Functional genomic studies of human endometrium in natural cycles have demons...
