BACKGROUND: Luteinizing hormone (LH) can stimulate mural granulosa cells to produce Amphiregulin (AREG), which can induce the resumption of meiosis in oocytes. Theca cells are present in the outer layer of follicles, providing communication…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the molecular mechanism of the Cinnamomi ramulus and Paris polyphylla Sm. (C-P) drug pair in the treatment of adenomyosis (AM) based on network pharmacology and animal experiments. METHODS: Via a network pharmacology …

Abstract Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory disease, affecting 10% of women and girls of reproductive ages around the globe. Pyroptosis ,a type of pro-inflammatory programmed cell death (PCD), has been associated with EM in recent…

BACKGROUND: Visceral pain is a complex and heterogeneous disorder that is considered more prominent compared to somatic pain, due to its multiple and complex causes and accompanying emotional and mood disorders. Research has become increasi…

Despite the potent effect of intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH) treatment on promoting new bone formation, bone mineral density (BMD) rapidly decreases upon discontinuation of PTH administration. To uncover the mechanisms behind this ad…

Objective: To investigate the subsequent fertility in women with a history of caesarean scar pregnancy Design: Observational study Setting: Tertiary hospital in China Sample: 149 women treated for caesarean scar pregnancy were followed up …

Some of the key steps in adenomyosis (AM) are the migration and invasion of adenomyosis derived cells (AMDC); these processes require rearrangement of the cytoskeleton which Rho/ROCK signaling pathway is involved. The aim of the current stu…

Decidualization is a complex process involving cellular proliferation and differentiation of the endometrial stroma and is required to establish and support pregnancy. Dysregulated decidualization has been reported to be a critical cause of…

MicroRNAs are a class of evolutionary conserved non-coding small RNAs that play key regulatory roles at the post-transcriptional level. In recent years, studies have shown that miR-214 plays an important role in regulating several biologica…

Melanoma has gradually entered the public view because of its high morbidity and rising prevalence rate, which is a serious threat to human life and health. Recently, N6-methyladenine (m6A) modification has been increasingly confirmed as a …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease that shares some characteristics with malignant tumors and affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. Endometrioma refers to endometriosis that appears in the ovary. M…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the specific vaginal microbiome in the differential diagnosis of endometriosis/adenomyosis (EM/AM)-associated chronic pelvic pain (CPP) from other types of CPP, and to explore the role of the vagi…

BACKGROUND: Among recurrent implantation failure (RIF) patients, the rate of successful implantation remains relatively low due to the complex etiology of the condition, including maternal, embryo and immune factors. Effective treatments ar…

Objective: Gynaecologic benign diseases such uterine fibroids share similar pathogeneses with endometrial and ovarian cancers. Whether a history of uterine fibroids increases the risk of developing endometrial or ovarian cancers is controve…

OBJECTIVES: Adenomyosis is a common and refractory disease in gynecology. Preserving the uterus during treatment for adenomyosis remains a problem. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is widely used in treatment of solid tumors. This s…

The purpose of this study was to integrate the existing expression profile data on endometriosis (EM)-related tissues in order to identify the differentially expressed genes. In this study, three series of raw expression data were downloade…

Many gene products exhibit great structural heterogeneity because of an array of modifications. These modifications are not directly encoded in the genomic template but often affect the functionality of proteins. Protein glycosylation plays…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a benign gynaecological disease with malignant characteristics that severely affects women's quality of life. Long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 (LncRNA MEG3) is a tumour suppressor that is downregul…

Pelvic mass onset following a hysterectomy due to benign disease is not rarely seen. Appropriate diagnosis and treatment are of great importance.This study aims to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients who have received surge…

Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a histone methyltransferase that suppresses gene expression. Previously, we developed a conditional null model where EZH2 is knocked out in uterus. Deletion of uterine EZH2 increased proliferation of lu…

Medicinal plants are a vital source of natural products (NPs) that can cure cancer through modulation of different pathways, including oxidative stress, extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis, cell cycle, inflammation, NF-kB, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, AMPK…

OBJECTIVE: The transcription factor Specificity protein 1 (Sp1) plays important roles in many critical biological functions; however, its expression and underlying functions in endometriosis remain undefined. Bioinformatics has suggested th…

BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) remains a critical and challenging problem in assisted reproductive technology mainly due to impaired decidualization. The endocytic and transcytotic activity in the endometrium are crucial f…

Background: Findings by epidemiologic studies on menopausal hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and the risk of ovarian cancer are inconsistent. This study aimed to assess the association of menopausal HRT with the risk of ovarian cancer by h…

Impaired decidualization has been considered a major cause of infertility in adenomyosis. However, the mechanism remains poorly understood. Recent studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNA) play a crucial role in embryo implantation. The aim of…
