  1. 21. Growth factor regulation of the urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) system in human endometrium, and the significance of uPA receptor activation in endometrial angiogenesis

    Författare :Tove Sandberg; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Obstetrics; endothelial cell migration; angiogenesis; uPA:PAI-1 complex; uPAR; TGF-beta; PAI-1; EGF; uPA; Growth factor; gynaecology; andrology; reproduction; sexuality; Obstetrik; gynekologi; andrologi; reproduktion; sexualitet;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis was to examine the role of growth factors and the urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) system in human endometrial angiogenesis. Growth factors as well as progesterone increased expression of the main inhibitor of uPA (PAI-1) in primary cultures of endometrial stromal cells. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Idiopathic menorrhagia : studies of angiogenesis and surgical therapy

    Författare :Miriam Mints; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Menorrhagia; TCRE; endometrium; angiogenesis; VEGF; VEGFR1; -2; -3; gaps.;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Excessive menstrual bleeding, menorrhagia (i.e. > 80 nil loss of blood) is a com-mon gynecological problem in women of reproductive age, accounting for over 20% of visits to gynecology outpatient clinics. The disorder may not only cause iron deficiency anemia but also considerable social discomfort and reduction in the quality of life. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Regulation and function of the human fallopian tube

    Författare :Kjell Wånggren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Fallopian tube; endometrium; embryo; transport; prostaglandin; receptors; progesterone; mifepristone; LIF; LIFR; gp130;

    Sammanfattning : The Fallopian tube is essential for human reproduction. Transport of the spermatozoa, the egg, and later the pre-embryo is believed to be aided by muscular contractions in the wall of the Fallopian tube and cilia in the mucosa. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Invasion promoting factors in endometriotic and endometrial tissue

    Författare :Christina Bruse; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Endometriosis; endometrium; PF; tPA; uPA; uPAR; PAI-1; PAI-2; IL-1beta; IL-6; TNFalpha.;

    Sammanfattning : Endometriosis is a common gynaecologic disorder, affecting women of fertile age with pelvic pain and infertility, and is characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. Retrograde shed endometrial fragments are presumed to adhere to pelvic structures and grow invasively, thereby creating endometriotic tissue. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Factors of importance for the outcome of IVF-treatment in women with tubal infertility

    Författare :György Csemiczky; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :In vitro fertilization; grade of tubal damage; extent of reconsructive surgery; E2; P4; prognostic factors; ovarian failure; endometrium; implantation.;

    Sammanfattning : In vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is a well-established infertility treatment caused by damage of the fallopian tube, which is one of the largest diagnostic categories in most IVF programs. This study evaluates factors of importance for the outcome of IVF-treatment: age, tubal damage grade, extent of reconstructive surgery, endocrine ovarian function and endometrial development. LÄS MER
