Although Xu [19] did not find any statistically significant differences in ligand mRNA expression, changes at a translational level were observed, namely, a significant decrease in ULBP-2 protein expression in the eutopic endometrium of endometriosis samples (relative to the eutopic endometrium of control samples and ectopic lesions (p < 0.05)), and a decrease in ULBP-3 protein expression in the ectopic endometrium samples compared with the eutopic endometrium (control and endometriosis) (p < 0.05). The gene discussed is ULBP3; the disease is endometriosis.
