Female infertility, accounting for 40–50% of infertility cases globally, underscores the urgent need for non-invasive biomarkers to guide early intervention. Cell-free DNA (cfDNA)—released via apoptosis, necrosis, or active secretion—has em…
Metabolic determinants of oocyte quality and embryonic development remain incompletely understood. Here, we profiled metabolites in human cumulus cells (CCs) and follicular fluid (FF), validated in two mouse models, and integrated transcrip…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate oncological and reproductive outcomes in patients with mismatch repair-deficient (MMRd) endometrial endometrioid carcinoma (EEC) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) undergoing fertility-preserving treatment t…
The cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling pathway has been extensively documented since its discovery in 2013. The cGAS-STING signaling pathway is activated u…
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to assess the trade-off between cycle continuation and cancellation in slow ovarian response (SOR) patients, and to evaluate the impact of SOR on embryo developmental potential and clinical pregna…
BACKGROUND: Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common gynecological issue during reproductive years. Researches on how dietary diversity and patterns influence AUB in Chinese university students are limited, with some studies not clearly …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a systemic and chronic disease with cancer-like feature, namely, distant implantation, which caused heavy healthy burden of nearly 200 million females. LncRNAs have been proved as new modulators in epithelial-mesenchy…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometrioma is a common gynecologic disease among reproductive-aged women. Pregnancy-related hormonal status may lead to changes of decidualization, which may resemble ovarian malignancies in sonographic appearance. Her…
BACKGROUND: Nicotinamide (NAM) is an important antioxidant, which is closely related to female fertility, but its role has not been clearly elucidated. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of NAM on follicular dev…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of different levels of physician experience on the high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of uterine fibroids and to provide a reference for the use of non-perfused volume ratio (NPVR) standards …
BACKGROUND: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is an uncommon subtype of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) that is often diagnosed at an earlier stage in younger women. It remains uncertain whether adjuvant chemotherapy improves the progn…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Endometriosis is a common and complicated gynaecologic disease. Long non-coding RNA CDKN2B-AS1 plays a crucial role in the development and progression of several cancers. Whether CDKN2B-AS1 contributes to endometriosis, h…
Abstract Background:Endometriosis can cause various social burdens. Abnormal circular RNAs level lead to changes of related gene expression, thereby mediating the occurrence and development of a series of diseases. The research of circRNA i…
Endometriosis can cause severe social burdens. Abnormal circular RNA levels have been found to lead to changes of related gene expression, thereby mediating the occurrence and development of a series of diseases, including endometriosis. Th…
Dysfunction of granulosa cells (GCs) leading to follicle atresia has been extensively studied as a major cause of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), but the regulatory role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in this process is still poor…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the experience of the physician of the technical success in high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of uterine fibroids with a nonperfused volume ratio (NPVR) of at least 80%. METHODS: Patients from a 20-ce…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder, usually causing infertility, pelvic pain, and ovarian masses. This study intended to investigate the implication of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) regulators in endometriosis. We acqui…
BACKGROUND: To investigate the metabolic profiles in the follicular fluid (FF) samples from patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) and to analyze the correlations with follicular development. METHODS: The FF samples were obtained…
The genetic etiology of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) has been well established to date, however, the role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in POI is largely unknown. In this study, we identified a down-expressed lncRNA HCP5 in gran…
OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is a common chronic, gynecological disease. Despite many studies on the role of N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) in endometriosis, its clinical significance is unclear. In this study, associations between NAT2 phenotype…
