Carnitine metabolism is thought to be negatively correlated with the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the specific molecular mechanism is yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we report that little characterized cysteine-rich p…

BackgroundAcademic research is one of the main avenues through which humans can fight the threat of infectious diseases. However, there have been concerns regarding whether the academic system has provided sufficient efforts to fight infect…

Abnormal gene expression caused by epigenetic changes, including DNA methylation, is associated with the development and progression of endometriosis. Grainyhead-like 2 gene (GRHL2), a suppressor of epithelial-mesenchymal transition, has be…

ObjectiveTo explore the functional and molecular mechanism of long noncoding RNA LINC01279 in gastric cancer (GC).MethodsThe LINC01279 expression in GC and tissues of para-carcinoma was detected by qPCR (real-time fluorescent quantitative P…

The vaginal microbiota dysbiosis is closely associated with the development of reproductive diseases. However, the contribution of mycobiome to intrauterine adhesion (IUA) disease remains unknown. Harnessing 16S and ITS2 rDNA sequencing ana…

BackgroundTwo or more embryo transfers have been used to increase the success rate of live birth in traditional in vitro fertilization (IVF) strategy at the expense of increased risks of multiple pregnancy and adverse perinatal outcomes. Th…

BACKGROUND Endometriosis is a disease characterized by endometrial tissue appearing outside the uterus, mainly involving the peritoneum and pelvic organs. Ureteral endometriosis (UE) is rare, typified by deep infiltrating endometriosis invo…

BackgroundThe gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) has been used in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles for a long time. This paper evaluates the efficacy and safety of two commonly used prot…

Abstract Background WNT4 gene polymorphism are common in endometriosis and may functionally link estrogen and estrogen receptor signaling. Previous study confirmed estrogen and estrogen receptor signaling recruit macrophage to promote the p…

Activin A receptor type 1C (ALK7) and its ligand nodal growth differentiation factor (NODAL) serve numerous roles in cancer cells, including regulating cancer invasion, migration and apoptosis. NODAL promotes breast cancer cell apoptosis by…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a special pathological type of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). We conducted this research to investigate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of OCCC and to provide additional supp…

Because the incidence of endometrial cancer is notably increasing worldwide, it has become the leading gynecologic cancer in the United States. Standard treatment results in the loss of reproductive function in women of childbearing age. Fu…

Background To investigate the combined enhancing effects of microbubble-contrast SonoVue and oxytocin on high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of adenomyosis.Methods 330 patients with adenomyosis were randomly assigned to SonoVu…

BackgroundTenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is a prodrug of a nucleotide analogue. As an antiviral drug, TDF has been proposed in the first-line treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Qingzhong, a brand name of TDF, commercialized by Jia…

The paper aims to understand the expression of nerve growth factor receptor (TrkA) in the ectopic and entopic endometrium of patients with adenomyosis and dysmenorrhea and, at the same time, explore and analyze the combination of hysterosco…

Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, which is characterized by a rapid depletion of glutathione (GSH). Cysthionine-β-synthase (CBS) is a key coenzyme in GSH synt…

Abstract Background Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a special pathological type of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC), we conducted this research in order to investigate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of OCCC and to prov…

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the associations between previous TORCH infection (cytomegalovirus, toxoplasmosis, herpes simplex virus, and rubella) with pregnancy and neonatal outcomes in couples undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET. Materia…

Studies have shown that aberrant expression of IL-12p40, which is encoded by the interleukin-12B (IL-12B) gene, may be involved in the development of endometriosis. In this study, we investigated the role of aberrant methylation of the IL-1…

BackgroundThe ovary is an important organ of the female reproductive system, which produces oocytes and secretes reproductive hormones. Ovaries have complex dual blood supplies with their blood supply being the core component to protect and…

The purpose of this experiment is to establish a rat model of thin endometrium and to explore the effect of ligustrazine on the thin endometrium of rats. The thin endometrium model was made by using infusing absolute ethyl alcohol into the …

BACKGROUND: Malignant transformation of endometriosis in the rectovaginal septum is rare and usually misdiagnosed as a colorectal or gynecological tumor. We report a rare case of primary endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the rectovaginal septu…

Huaier, as known as Trametes robiniophila Murr, is a traditional Chinese medicine. Various studies have demonstrated that Huaier could inhibit cancer progression and improve the prognosis of patients. In the present study, we comprehensivel…

STUDY QUESTION: Is the methylation status of the glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) promoter region altered in patients with ovarian endometriosis, and does this affect the expression of GSTM1 in their endometrial tissues? SUMMARY ANSWER:…

PURPOSE: The risks of gynecologic cancer have not been well established in women with endometriosis. The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of endometriosis on the risk for three gynecologic cancer (ovarian canc…
