Systems biology is primarily concerned with the dynamic study of biochemical metabolic processes in physical systems, the interplay of multiple signal transduction routes, gene regulatory networks, and disease causes, among other things. It…

Uterine infertility is a substantial global health challenge, imposing profound physical and emotional burdens on affected individuals, with endometrial injury being a key contributing factor. In this study, we report that platelet-derived …

Endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by pain and infertility, remains a clinical challenge. Current hormonal and surgical treatments are often limited by side effects and high recurrence rates. In search of more eff…

Polycystic ovary syndrome is the primary cause of female infertility. Growing evidence suggests that dysregulation of amino acid metabolism plays a significant role in the onset and progression. However, the underlying mechanism remains unc…

OBJECTIVE: To examine if endometriosis affected outcomes of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). METHODOLOGY: We searched for all study types on the databases of EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus. The search limits were 1st January…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to pain and infertility. Recent studies suggest that antioxidants may play a protective ro…

Ovarian cancer, particularly epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), is the most aggressive and lethal gynecologic malignancy, necessitating the development of innovative and potent therapies to improve its prognosis. Human polo-like kinase 1 (PLK…

Antibodies have been widely used globally over the past decade and play an increasingly important role in modern medicine. Notably, significant advancements have been achieved in the realm of gynecology, particularly in gynecological cancer…

BackgroundInfertility has become a global health concern, especially as the aging population continues to grow. Previous studies suggest that gut microbiota plays a crucial role in female reproductive health. This study aimed to investigate…

Background & objectiveThe added value of lymphadenectomy is a widely debated topic, especially in cases of early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We present robust evidence through an updated systematic review and meta-analysis regard…

BackgroundThe echo pattern constitutes an ultrasonic index that reflects the characteristics of the endometrium across various phases of the menstrual cycle. However, consensus of endometrial echo pattern and pregnancy outcomes is lacking i…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a prevalent, estrogen-dependent, inflammatory disease that impairs fertility via hormonal dysregulation, immune dysfunction, oxidative stress/ferroptosis, genetic and epigenetic alterations, and microbiome imb…

Neuropathic pain causes plasticity in the nervous system, which is often associated with altered protein synthesis. Proteins are the key executors of cellular functions, and their alteration is closely related to the occurrence of neuropath…

ObjectivesTo evaluate the association of GGN repeat polymorphism of androgen receptor (AR) with ovarian reserve and ovarian response in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS).MethodsThis genetic association study was conducted among a total o…

Endometriosis (EM) is a non-cancerous disease that exhibits certain tumor-like properties. While hormonal therapies and surgical excision are standard treatments with proven efficacy in alleviating EM symptoms, they are often accompanied by…

BackgroundMetabolic dysregulation plays a critical role in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), yet the involvement of energy metabolism-related genes (ERGs) remains incompletely understood. This study employs integrative bioinformatics and ex…

BackgroundOverweight and obesity can induce an inflammatory milieu in the oocyte microenvironment and are closely associated with reduced assisted reproductive outcomes.ObjectiveHow are immune cells, cytokines and lipid profiles altered in …

BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder characterized by ovulatory dysfunction, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovaries, significantly impacting reproductive health. Obesity, prevalent in 50-80% of PCOS pa…

Iron is an essential micronutrient element for human. It participates in energy metabolism, enzyme activation, immune system and other metabolic functions. In this review, the potential role of iron in female reproductive health were consid…

IntroductionOvarian cancer significantly contributes to cancer-related deaths among women. Resistance to anchorage-dependent cell death (anoikis) plays a vital role in facilitating metastasis and worsening patient prognosis. Recent developm…

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas accompanied with intestinal injury, and effective therapeutic modalities are still highly lacking. Herein, a facile and effective nanotherapeutics (pHA@IBNCs) is dev…

Gynecologic disorders, such as cervical and ovarian tumors, uterine fibroids, and endometriosis, present significant clinical challenges due to frequent recurrence, emerging chemoresistance, and undesirable effects associated with prolonged…
