Genetic factors Familial clustering of endometriosis is a common clinical observation In families with endometriosis the disease is often confined to the maternal line, and is 7 times more common in first-degree relatives than in the general population In future studies, evaluation of dNa polymorphism may identify specific genes involved in the development of endometriosis 2003-11-3 6

Immunologic Theory: Lose control of immunologic balance Both cellular immunity and humoral immunity change 1) Macrophage↑- release l-1、IL6、TNF、EGF、 FGF etc.- stimulate t b lymphocyte proliferation and activation 2) Activity of killer cell (nK cell and T cell) 3)Produce anti-endometrium antibody 4) Abnormal expression of CAMs(cell adhesion molecules 2003-11-3
