TERT and endometriosis: Lastly, in February 2020, Dera-Szymanowska et al. published another interesting article suggesting that immunomodulation (through alteration of the potentially pathogenic gene expression profiles of Bax, Tert, and Mki67 genes in the endometrial cells of the rats) seems to be able to inhibit the development of endometriosis at a substantially important level, thus moving one step forward from the implantation of the lesions, onto how these lesions could be reduced (in size and functionality) in vivo [32].
