Ferroptosis in the Ovarian Follicular Microenvironment: A Redox-Dependent Cell Death Pathway with Emerging Roles in PCOS, Oocyte Quality, and IVF Outcomes
International journal of molecular sciences ·doi:10.3390/ijms262110381

Ferroptosis is a novel kind of regulated cell death that occurs when redox equilibrium is disrupted, leading to iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis is defined by the buildup of deleterious lipid hydroperoxides, the inactivation o…

''Non-Invasive Extracellular Vesicle Biomarkers in Endometriosis, Molecular Signatures Linking Pelvic Inflammation, Oocyte Quality, and IVF Outcomes''
Current issues in molecular biology ·doi:10.3390/cimb47110956

Endometriosis impairs fertility by interfering with ovarian function, embryonic development, and endometrial receptivity. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are recognised as non-invasive biomarkers that may indicate biological processes based on…

Oxidative Stress-Telomere Axis in IVF: Molecular Mechanisms, Biomarkers, and Clinical Translation
International journal of molecular sciences ·doi:10.3390/ijms262311359

The reduction in oocyte competence and ovarian reserve coincides with reproductive ageing; nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Our testable mechanistic hypothesis is that the oxidative…
