Is endometrial integrin expression independent of estrogen or progestin treatment in vitro?
The cellular distribution of integrin expression was similar to that described in vivo. In contrast, a steroid regulated expression could not be detected in vitro. Rather, a derepression by a factor not included in our model could be responsible for the cyclic appearance of some integrins. In endometriosis, no fundamental difference of integrin expression was detected.
A diameter of the draining vein of PAVM of 2.5 mm or greater on unenhanced MDCT is a strong predictor of reperfusion.
