MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF UTERINE LEIOMYOMA ACCORDINGTO EXPRESSION OF GENES OF STEROID RECEPTORS, STS, SULT AND PTEN

Leiomyoma is one of the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive system. As this pathology in most cases is hormone dependent, we determined the level of gene expression of steroid receptors ERs, PR, estrogen sulfotransferase SULT1E1, STS steroid s…
