Wangjia. Expression and significance of survivin in endometriosis[J]. Journal of Chongqing Medical University, 2005,(6):843-845. DOI: 10.13406/j.cnki.cyxb.2005.06.017.
Objective: To study the expression of apoptosis related gene survivin in endometriosis. Methods; Expressions of survivin protein were detected by immunohistochemical method (SP) in 40 cases of endometriosis
and compared with those in 25 cases of normal eutopic endometrium. The correlation between them was analyzed. Results; The expression rate of survivin protein in endometriotic ec-topic cells was much higher than that in normal eutopic cells(P <0. 01 )
and was not correlated with menstrual cycle phase ( P > 0. 05). Conclusion: Survivin may play an important role in pathogenesis of endometriosis.
