Aberrant methylation at HOXA10 may be responsible for its aberrant expression in the endometrium of patients with endometriosis

There is aberrant methylation in the endometrium of women with endometriosis compared with those without endometriosis. The aberrant methylation at HOXA10 may be responsible for the aberrant gene expression in the endometrium of women with endometriosis. This finding suggests that endometriosis may also be an epigenetic disease.
