Anti-inflammatory and proliferative responses in human and ovine ovarian surface epithelial cells (2004)
Journal Article
Gubbay, O., Guo, W., Rae, M. T., Niven, D., Howie, A. F., McNeilly, A. S., Xu, L., & Hillier, S. G. (2004). Anti-inflammatory and proliferative responses in human and ovine ovarian surface epithelial cells. Reproduction, 128, 607-614. https://doi.org/10.1530/rep.1.00272

The majority of ovarian cancers (>90%) are believed to derive from the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE); a single layer covering the entire surface of the ovary. At ovulation, the OSE cell layer undergoes an inflammatory response, involving cell deat...

Steroid signalling in human ovarian surface epithelial cells: the response to interleukin-1alpha determined by microarray analysis. (2004)
Journal Article
Rae, M. T., Niven, D., Ross, A., Forster, T., Lathe, R., Critchley, H. O. D., Ghazal, P., & Hillier, S. G. (2004). Steroid signalling in human ovarian surface epithelial cells: the response to interleukin-1alpha determined by microarray analysis. Journal of Endocrinology, 183, 19-28. https://doi.org/10.1677/joe.1.05754

The human ovarian surface epithelium (HOSE) is a common site of gynaecological disease including endometriosis and ovarian cancer, probably due to serial injury-repair events associated with successive ovulations. To comprehend the importance of ster... Read More about Steroid signalling in human ovarian surface epithelial cells: the response to interleukin-1alpha determined by microarray analysis..

The role of perceived authority on the clinical behaviour and decision-making of midwives has received little research attention, largely due to the unavailability of a midwifery-specific measure of conformity. The current study investigated the fact... Read More about The social influence scale for midwifery: factor structure and clinical research applications.
