Endogenous Microbacteria Can Contribute to Ovarian Carcinogenesis by Reducing Iron Concentration in Cysts: A Pilot Study

Endogenous Microbacteria Can Contribute to Ovarian Carcinogenesis by Reducing Iron Concentration in Cysts: A Pilot Study

Among epithelial ovarian cancer, clear cell carcinoma is common for chemo-resistance and high mortality. This cancer arises from benign ovarian endometrioma (OE), which is a high oxidative stress environment due to the cystic retention of menstrual blood produced during menstruation and the “iron” l...
