Spheroids as a model for endometriotic lesions
JCI Insight, 2023 The development and progression of endometriotic lesions are poorly understood, but immune cell dysfunction and inflammation are closely associated with the pathophysiology of endometriosis.

Reproductive biology of Bellucia (MELASTOMATACEAE) [PDF]
Acta Amazonica, 1986 The reproductive biology of five of the seven species of Bellucia (Melastomataceae), a genus of shrubs and small trees, was investigated in Amazonia. Sucessful fruit-set by Bellucia requires floral visitation by bees.

WNK1 regulates uterine homeostasis and its ability to support pregnancy
JCI Insight, 2020 WNK1 (with no lysine [K] kinase 1) is an atypical kinase protein ubiquitously expressed in humans and mice. A mutation in its encoding gene causes hypertension in humans, which is associated with abnormal ion homeostasis.
