  • Title: Expression of E- and N-cadherin and CD44 in endometrium and hydrosalpinges from infertile women.
    Author: Poncelet C, Cornelis F, Tepper M, Sauce E, Magan N, Wolf JP, Ziol M.
    Journal: Fertil Steril; 2010 Dec; 94(7):2909-12. PubMed ID: 20605145.
    Abstract:
    In this prospective comparative study, compared with fertile control subjects (n = 12), infertile patients with hydrosalpinx (n = 18) had lower E-cadherin and a trend toward decreased N-cadherin H-scores in the endometrium (3.6 ± 0.6 vs. 2.4 ± 0.8 and 0.57 ± 1.0 vs. 0.52 ± 0.5, respectively). In hydrosalpinx, epithelial N-cadherin expression was discontinuous and disappeared in atrophic patches.
