The cannabinoid receptor CB1 affects the proliferation and apoptosis of adenomyotic human uterine smooth muscle cells of the junctional zone: a mechanism study. [PDF]
Reprod Biol Endocrinol, 2021 Background The denomyotic junctional zone (JZ) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is an important nuclear marker of cell proliferation.

Uterine junctional zone thickness in infertile women evaluated by MRI [PDF]
Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2017 PurposeTo prospectively evaluate and compare the junctional zone (JZ) and outer myometrial thickness in infertile and healthy nulliparous women at different locations in the uterine wall during the menstrual cycle by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).Materials and MethodsWe performed pelvic 1.5T MRI (T2‐weighted turbo spin echo sequences) on 28 ...

Upregulated microRNA let-7a accelerates apoptosis and inhibits proliferation in uterine junctional zone smooth muscle cells in adenomyosis under conditions of a normal activated hippo-YAP1 axis. [PDF]
Reprod Biol Endocrinol, 2021 Background Let-7a is a small non-coding RNA that has been found to take part in cell proliferation and apoptosis. The hippo-YAP1 axis, known as a tumour suppressor pathway, also plays an important role in cell proliferation and apoptosis.
