Abnormal activity of human prolactin (PRL) and its membrane-associated receptor (PRLR) contributes to the progression of uterine carcinoma. However, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood, and current means of targeting the PRL/P…
BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer is a frequent, common cancer in women, and causes high cancer-related deaths among women in our world. Accumulating studies provided an important evidence for long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) polymorphisms in the susc…
Genetic polymorphisms of NEIL1 and NEIL2 maybe change protein function, and increased carcinogenesis. In this study, seven NEIL1 SNPs and three NEIL2 SNPs were selected. 400 CSCCs, 400 CIN III, and 1200 normal healthy controls were genotype…
OBJECTIVE: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a refractory disease that seriously affects female fertility. Growing body of evidence has indicated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as promising resources in regenerative medicine. In this …
Differences in the relative abundances of the progesterone receptor (PGR) isoforms PGRA and PGRB are often observed in women with reproductive tract cancers. To assess the importance of the PGR isoform ratio in the maintenance of the reprod…
HIF-1α is an important factor regulating oxygen balance in mammals, and its expression is closely related to various physiological and pathological conditions of the body. Because HIF-1α plays an important role in the occurrence and develop…
BACKGROUND: Human follicular fluid (HFF), which is composed by essential proteins required for the follicle development, provides an important microenvironment for oocyte maturation. Recently, overweight status has been considered as a detr…
BACKGROUND: Due to the high morbidity and poor clinical outcomes, early predictive and prognostic biomarker identification is desiderated in colorectal cancer (CRC). As a homologue of the Deleted in Colorectal Cancer (DCC) gene, the role of…
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), a serious inflammatory disease of the pancreas, can easily lead to systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndromes (MODS). Acute lung injury (ALI) is one of the most s…
BACKGROUND: Multiple pregnancies are associated with significant complications and health risks for both mothers and infants. Single blastocyst transfer (SBT) is a logical and effective measure to reduce the incidence of multiple pregnancy …
BACKGROUND: Women with irregular menstruation should be considered to benefit from the ovarian stimulation. However, most literature did not separate ovulatory disorders from normal menstrual cycles. Our purpose was to assess the superiorit…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine metabolic disorders characterized by hyperandrogenism, polycystic ovaries and ovulatory dysfunction. Several studies have suggested that the aberrant expression of microRN…
Study Objective To demonstrate a novel approach to transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy using robotic assistance Design Video presentation of the surgical procedure.…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To educate surgeons on the advantages of robotic techniques in hysteroscopic-assisted single-site resection of cesarean scar defect. DESIGN: A step-by-step video presentation detailing the complete surgical procedure. SET…
PURPOSE: Dysmenorrhea is a common disorder that substantially disrupts the lives of young women. To determine whether there is evidence of activation of the innate immune system in dysmenorrhea and whether the degree of activation may be us…
As a class of transcription regulators, numerous miRNAs have been verified to participate in regulating ovary follicular development in chickens (Gallus gallus). Previously we showed that gga-miR-135a-5p has significant differential express…
Previous lncRNA microarray screening found that the AC002454.1 gene was highly expressed in endometriosis (EMS), and these expression levels were highly correlated with cyclin-dependent kinase-6 (CDK6). This study investigated the expressio…
Background and Aims: This study was aim to investigate the relationship between the four intron SNPs (rs3087404, rs2029167, rs2029166 and rs7296239) of SMUG1 and the susceptibility of cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: Four SMUG1 in…
This study was performed to investigate the relationship between the MUTYH Gln324His (CAG/CAC) genotype and risk of cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) in a case-control setting. Mismatch amplification-polymerase chain reaction (MA-PCR)…
BACKGROUND: This clinical trial aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (HP-HMG) plus recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) versus rFSH alone on controlled ovarian stimulation …
BACKGROUND: Some of the non-criteria autoantibodies, especially non-conventional antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies, were present with high prevalence in sporadic miscarriages and recurrent pregnant loss. However, whether these autoantibodie…
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…
Yiqi Shexue formula (YQSX) is traditionally used to treat primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine. However, its mechanisms of action and molecular targets for treatment of ITP are not clear…
Deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase) is involved in the repair and prevention of uracil misincorporations into DNA. Maintenance of DNA integrity is critical for cancer prevention. Many studies have identified susceptib…
