Genetically-predicted placental gene expression links to uterine fibroids and endometriosis
Placenta ·doi:10.1016/j.placenta.2026.03.023

INTRODUCTION: Mother-to-child disease transmission begins in utero, with the placenta playing a critical role in pregnancy and offspring health. Uterine leiomyomata (fibroids, UFs) and endometriosis (ENDO) are common gynecologic diseases th…

Expanding the genetic landscape of endometriosis: Integrative -omics analyses uncover key pathways from a multi-ancestry study of over 900,000 women
medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences ·doi:10.1101/2024.11.26.24316723

We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis consisting of a large portion (31%) of non-European samples across 14 biobanks worldwide as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative …
