Dysregulation of Lysyl Oxidase Expression in Lesions and Endometrium of Women With Endometriosis

Conclusions:
This study documents that expression of LOX is differentially regulated in endometriotic lesions and endometrium. A role for LOX in mediating proliferation, migration, and invasion of endometrial and endometriotic cells was observed, which may be implicated in the establishment and progression of endometriotic lesions.
