Results: Functional enrichment analysis of 173, 42 and 151 genes associated with endometriosis, adenomyosis and healthy women, respectively, revealed signalling by interleukins and interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signalling pathways, from which annotated LIF, JUNB, IL6, FOS, IL10 and SOCS3 were prioritised. This evidence concerns the gene IL6 and adenomyosis.
