GATA2 and endometriosis: Proteins involved in regulation and mediation of the P4-responsive IHH pathway including GATA2, SOX17, IHH, COUPTFII, and WNT4 are required for successful implantation in mice [29,30,34,65,67] but are reduced in the endometrium of women with endometriosis [68,131,132,136,155], revealing a potential large-scale molecular connection between P4 resistance and fertility problems in endometriosis.
