The role of selected cytokines from the interleukin-1 family in the peritoneal fluid of women with endometriosis
Disturbances of the immune system involving the network of cytokines belonging to the IL-1 family occurring in the peritoneal fluid environment testify to the involvement of these molecules in the development of the disease and are one of many factors involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The use of some of them in the treatment of endometriosis may be a hope for effective causal treatment of this disease, but this requires further, more advanced research.
