The endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) plays a notable role in pathological vascular remodeling. Emerging evidence indicated that long non-coding RNA-regulator of reprogramming (linc-ROR) can p…
BackgroundAnti-angiogenic therapy has become one of the effective treatment methods for tumors. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as important regulators of tumorigenesis and angiogenesis in EC. However, the underlying mechanisms o…
BackgroundFemale fertility declines with increased maternal age, and this decline is even more rapid after the age of 35 years. Follicular fluid (FF) is a crucial microenvironment that plays a significant role in the development of oocytes,…
Tryptophan (Trp) metabolism involves three primary pathways: the kynurenine (Kyn) pathway (KP), the 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin, 5-HT) pathway, and the indole pathway. Under normal physiological conditions, Trp metabolism plays crucial r…
