Abstract
Our results indicate that VEGF SNPs â2578CÂ >Â A and â1154GÂ >Â A increase endometriosis risk, whereas VEGF +405GÂ >Â C and VEGFR2 1192CÂ >Â T are protective against disease development, with VEGFR2 1192CÂ >Â T also reducing cyclical urinary symptoms. The combined analysis of VEGF-VEGFR2 genotypes suggests a gene-gene interaction in endometriosis susceptibility.
