Macrophages are vital sentinels in innate immunity, and their functions cannot be performed without internal metabolic reprogramming. Mitochondrial dynamics, especially mitochondrial fusion and fission, contributes to the maintenance of mit…

INTRODUCTION: This study investigated whether probiotics alleviate Endometriosis (EMs)-related inflammation by modulating the gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). METHODS: An endometriosis model was established in SD rats, w…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects reproductive and cardiometabolic health, yet its pathogenesis remains unclear. Emerging evidence links hemoglobin levels to metabolic disorders, suggesting a potential role in PCOS development. Here,…

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection-associated intestinal manifestations including diarrhea and proctitis have been frequently reported during mpox outbreaks. The clade IIb MPXV strain has caused the 2022-2023 global outbreak, whereas the Ia a…

BACKGROUND: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an agnogenic chronic intestinal inflammatory disease. Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell (UMSC) is a potential therapeutic approach against UC; however, the mechanisms underlying their effica…

BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease. An increasing body of evidence indicates that hormones, particularly estrogen, play a significant role in RA. To date, no bibliometric studies have been conducted specif…

Endometriosis-associated ovarian carcinoma (EAOC) predominantly arises from the malignant transformation of endometriomas, yet the mechanism is incompletely defined. Spatial transcriptomic analysis of human specimens of normal endometrium, …

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) is an important factor affecting therapeutic effect and prognosis of acute myocardial infarction. Here, the effects of up-frameshift 1 (UPF1) on cardiomyocyte apoptosi…

BACKGROUND: The process of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) induces a maternal supraphysiological estradiol environment during embryo implantation and early development. Estrogen is crucial in modulating the colonization of m…

BACKGROUND: This study leveraged whole-genome resequencing to investigate the genetic architecture, population structure, and kinship dynamics of the Hetian sheep population. By integrating genomic data with reproductive trait analysis, we …

BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer (OC) is a heterogeneous malignancy with multiple histological subtypes, showing global variability in incidence. Temporal changes in diagnostic criteria and risk factors might influence the incidence and distribut…

INTRODUCTION: Perioperative urinary tract infections (PUTIs) are common in the United States and are a significant contributor to high healthcare costs. There is a lack of large studies on the risk factors for PUTIs after total hysterectomy…

Ceria nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) have become popular materials in biomedical and industrial fields due to their potential applications in anti-oxidation, cancer therapy, photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, sensors, etc. Many methods, in…

OBJECTIVE: A single-center observational study to determine the clinical characteristics and therapeutic dose adjustments in women of reproductive age with infertility and non-classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency (NC-21OHD). DESIGN: A retro…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the pregnancy outcome of the fresh cycle or freeze-thaw cycle embryo transfer of patients treated with a long follicular phase regimen and antagonist regimen, and explore the clinical therapeutic effect of the two regi…

Abnormal granulosa cell (GC) death contributes to cyclophosphamide (CTX) induced primary ovarian insufficiency (POI). To investigate the contribution of GCs to POI, gene profiles of GCs exposed to CTX were assessed using RNA-Seq and bioinfo…

PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning (DL) model for differentiating between benign and malignant ovarian tumors of Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System Ultrasound (O-RADS US) Category 4 lesions, and validate its diagnostic performance. …

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported inconsistent results regarding blastocyst selection with a high day 3 (D3) cell number and the eventual pregnancy outcomes. Thus, in this study, the relationship between the D3 cell number and clin…

BACKGROUND: Placental anomalies, including placenta previa (PP), placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS), and vase previa (VP), are associated with several adverse foetal-neonatal and maternal complications. However, there is still a lack…

BACKGROUND: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a common reproductive disease that is associated with chronic inflammation in ovaries. Interleukin 33 (IL-33) is a pro-inflammatory IL-1 family cytokine, and functions as an alarmin refle…

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a diverse form of female infertility characterized by a decline in ovarian function before the age of 40. Melatonin (MT) is a potential clinical treatment for restoring or safeguarding ovarian functi…

Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), is a long non-coding RNA localized in the cell nucleus, known for its multifunctional roles, including potential involvement in spermatogenesis. This study investigates the me…

Accumulating researches have reported that miR-17-92 cluster expression has strong association with tumorigenesis. In this study, we investigated the effects of 2 genetic polymorphisms in the promoter region of the miR-17-92 cluster and the…

Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is characterized by endometrial fibrosis. S100A8/A9 plays an important role in inflammation and fibroblast activation. However, the role of S100A8/A9 in IUA remains unclear. In this study, we collect normal and I…

The vaginal microbiome plays an essential role in the reproductive health of human females. As infertility increases worldwide, understanding the roles that the vaginal microbiome may have in infertility and in vitro fertilization (IVF) tre…
