Covering models ranging from rodents to baboons, it explores novel mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of endometriosis. Topics range from the role of miRNAs and environmental endocrine disrupters to pain and endometriosis-associated subfertility. Estimated to affect up to 10% of women, endometriosis is a widespread and in some cases debilitating disease. While studies on the pathophysiology of the disease and the development of treatments for endometriosis-associated subfertility are called for, acquiring appropriate tissues from women with and without endometriosis in combination with physiologically relevant in vitro and in vivo laboratory models is an essential aspect. However, control subjects with similar ages, living environments and medical histories, besides endometriosis, are hard to find and attaining suitable human reproductive tissues is linked to an ongoing ethical discussion, especially when studying embryos. Laboratory models like rodent and monkey models are therefore needed to fill the research gap and support hypothesis-driven, randomized, controlled experimental design studies. In this book we highlight the latest developments and findings in endometriosis research using animal models. The book was written for scientists, physicians and medical students working in the field of reproductive science, and for women with endometriosis. 410 0$aAdvances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology,$x2192-7065 ;$v232 606 $aBiology$xTechnique 606 $aGynecology 606 $aPhysiology 606 $aMedicine$xResearch 606 $aBiology$xResearch 606 $aReproductive health 606 $aBiological Techniques 606 $aGynecology 606 $aPhysiology 606 $aBiomedical Research 606 $aReproductive Medicine 615 0$aBiology$xTechnique. 615 0$aGynecology. 615 0$aPhysiology. 615 0$aMedicine$xResearch. 615 0$aBiology$xResearch. 615 0$aReproductive health. 615 14$aBiological Techniques. 615 24$aGynecology. 615 24$aPhysiology. 615 24$aBiomedical Research. 615 24$aReproductive Medicine. 676 $a574.028 702 $aSharpe-Timms$b Kathy L. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910431349303321 996 $aAnimal models for endometriosis$92034084 997 $aUNINA
