ABSTRACT
In order to evaluate the expression of HLA-DR antigen in glandular cells in eutopic and ectopic endometrium in patients with endometriosis, 19 infertile patients with endometriosis were analyzed immunohistochemically by labelled streptavidin biotin (LSAB) method. Nineteen infertile patients without endometriosis were studied as controls. The results showed that the expression of HLA-DR antigen in the glandular cells in both eutopic and ectopic endometrium was increased significantly as compared with that in the controls (P < 0.01). It is likely that aberrant expression of HLA-DR antigen in endometriotic tissue is involved in abnormal immunogenesis of endometriosis.

In order to evaluate the changes of lipid perioxides (LPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels in peritoneal fluid in patients with endometriosis, the levels of LPO and SOD in peritoneal fluids from infertile women with endometriosis and with normal pelvis were measured. The result showed that the levels of LPO but SOD was elevated significantly in peritoneal fluid from women with endometriosis than in women with normal pelvis (P<0.01). It is suggested that free oxygen radicals may be involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis associated infertility.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the correlation of endometriotic focus and peritoneal fluid as well as its effect on reproduction Methods Forty three women with surgical treatment or laproscope with infertility are divided into endometriosis group (24 cases) and normal pelvic group (control group 19 cases) The pathophysiology of patient′s peritoneal fluid, celiac macrophages and endometriotic cells are analyzed by chemotactic test on monocytes, dot blot hybridize, enzyme linked immunoadsorbent assay and the level of cytoplasmic [Ca 2+ ]i respectively Meanwhile, the influence of peritoneal fluid and endometriotic cells to sperm motivity as well as the effects to rat embryo cleavage are evaluated Results The monocyte moving distance induced by peritoneal fluid in endometriosis group Vs control is (87 2?9 4) ?m Vs (51 9?3 7) ?m ( P
