Identification of suitable reference genes for mesenchymal stem cells from menstrual blood of women with endometriosis
Abstract It has been suggested that menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MenMSCs) are associated with the etiopathogenesis of endometriosis and considerable effort has been invested in searching for target genes and deciphering associated molecular pathways. However, reference gen...
