Bushen Tiaoxue Granules (BTG) is an empirical Chinese herbal formula that has been used for the treatment of subfertility. The protective effect of BTG on controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH)-induced impaired endometrial receptivity ha…

BACKGROUND: Chronic endometritis (CE), frequently asymptomatic, is associated with female infertility. Fallopian tube obstruction (FTO) is also one of the factors contributing to female infertility. More than 90% of cases of proximal FTO ca…

Endometriosis diagnosis is usually delayed. The gold standard for diagnosing endometriosis is laparoscopy, which is invasive and accompanied by several risks. Currently, there are no effective non-invasive biomarkers for diagnosing endometr…

Endometriosis is a debilitating, chronic inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-age women worldwide with no cure. While macrophages have been intrinsically linked to the pathophysiology of endometriosis, targeting …

Zinc finger protein 384 (ZNF384) is a highly conserved transcribed gene associated with the development of multiple tumors, however, its role and mechanism in serous ovarian cancer (SOC) are unknown. We first confirmed that ZNF384 was abnor…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate whether the base of the tongue harbours a transformation zone (TZ), i.e., an initiation site for papillomavirus infection, analogous to that in the uterine cervix by examining the histolog…

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a clinical syndrome of ovarian dysfunction characterized by the abnormal alteration of hormone levels such as FSH and E2. POI causes infertility, severe daily life disturbances, and long-term health …

BACKGROUND: tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are an emerging class of small noncoding RNAs derived from tRNA cleavage. SUMMARY: With the development of high-throughput sequencing, various biological roles of tsRNAs have been gradually reve…

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…

BACKGROUND: There was inconsistency in optimal endometrial preparation protocol for frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) in patients with endometriosis. We conducted this study to investigate the effect of different endometrial preparation p…

Endometriosis is a common inflammatory illness in which endometrial tissue grows outside the uterine cavity. Immune dysfunction is now widely acknowledged as the primary cause of endometriosis. The immune cell population represented by neut…

Inflammation is an organism's biological defense mechanism. Acute and chronic inflammation of the body triggers the production of pro- and anti-inflammatory pathways that can affect the content of cytokines in the brain and thus cause brain…

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a highly expressed tumor marker in epithelial ovarian cancer, and its overexpression is considered to be a potential factor of poor prognosis. Therefore, monitoring the expression of HER2 r…
