Of special interest are the inherited forms of endometriosis and their correlation with relevant mutations or polymorphisms of the genes involved in the differentiation of the Mullerian duct and in the development of the urogenital tract, such as WNT, HOXA10, HOXA11, and their signaling pathways, as well as other genes regulating mesoderm differentiation and SC trafficking. Here, HOXA10 is linked to endometriosis.
