Stem Cell-Like Properties of the Endometrial Side Population: Implication in Endometrial Regeneration
Hirotaka Masuda,Yumi Matsuzaki,Emi Hiratsu,Masanori Ono,Takashi Nagashima,Takashi Kajitani,Toru Arase,Hideyuki Oda,Hiroshi Uchida,Hironori Asada,Mamoru Ito,Yasunori Yoshimura,Tetsuo Maruyama,Hideyuki Okano +13 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that putative endometrial stem cells are highly enriched in the ESP cells, which suggest that ESP cells might drive physiological endometrium regeneration and be involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.

Human uterine stem/progenitor cells: their possible role in uterine physiology and pathology
TL;DR: A novel hypothetical model in which stem cell activities explain the physiological remodelling and regeneration of the human uterus and the pathogenesis of gynaecological diseases such as endometriosis is proposed.
Zinc-fingers and homeoboxes (ZHX) 2, a novel member of the ZHX family, functions as a transcriptional repressor.
Hiroko Kawata,Kazuya Yamada,Zhangfei Shou,Tetsuya Mizutani,Takashi Yazawa,Miki Yoshino,Toshio Sekiguchi,Takashi Kajitani,Kaoru Miyamoto +8 more
TL;DR: The ZHX family of proteins may participate in the expression of a number of NF-Y-regulated genes via a more organized transcription network through the use of zinc-finger motifs and homeodomains.
Histone deacetylase inhibitor-induced glycodelin enhances the initial step of implantation
Hiroshi Uchida,Tetsuo Maruyama,Kuniaki Ohta,Masanori Ono,Toru Arase,Maki Kagami,Hideyuki Oda,Takashi Kajitani,Hironori Asada,Yasunori Yoshimura +9 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that glycodelin is a key regulatory protein of implantation and suggests that SAHA may have a capacity to supplant steroid derivatives in the treatment of infertility.
Histone deacetylase inhibitors stimulate cell migration in human endometrial adenocarcinoma cells through up-regulation of glycodelin.
Hiroshi Uchida,Tetsuo Maruyama,Masanori Ono,Kuniaki Ohta,Takashi Kajitani,Hirotaka Masuda,Takashi Nagashima,Toru Arase,Hironori Asada,Yasunori Yoshimura +9 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the use of HDACIs in the therapy for glycodelin-inducible endometrial and presumably other gynecological cancers may enhance invasion in cases in which the HDACs fail to exert differentiation-inducing and/or antiproliferative effects.
