Although estrogen has crucial functions for endometrium growth, the specific dose and underlying molecular mechanism in intrauterine adhesion (IUA) remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of estrogen on epithelial…
Abstract BackgroundEndometriosis causes severe chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Chinese medicine plays an active role in the treatment of endometriosis. ELeng Capsule(ELC) is a Chinese medicine formula used for the treatment of endomet…
Currently, there are no studies reporting the efficacy of fisetin in premature ovarian failure (POF). In this study, using mouse and Caenorhabditis elegans models, we found that fisetin not only significantly reversed ovarian damage in POF …
PurposeTo analyze the potential prognostic factors of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in women aged under 35 compared to those aged 60-79.MethodsCases were retrospectively obtained from SEER database. Clinical characteristics, such as race,…
Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases that adversely effects the lives of women. Our previous studies showed that LINC01541 plays a key role in 17β-estradiol (17β-E2)-stimulated endometrial stromal cells (ESCs); how…
ObjectivesTo evaluate the effect of dyslipidemia on the incidence of moderate and severe Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in the duration of assisted reproduction technique (ART).MethodsThe study included 233 moderate and severe OHS…
The placenta plays a central role in the epigenetic programming of neurodevelopment by prenatal stress (PS), but this pathway is not fully understood. It difficult to study in humans because the conditions for intense, traumatic PS are almo…
Abstract Background: Endometriosis is a progressive and benign disease characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma tissue outside of the uterine cavity. Though endometriosis is a benign disease, it has the characteristics…
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the associations between previous TORCH infection (cytomegalovirus, toxoplasmosis, herpes simplex virus, and rubella) with pregnancy and neonatal outcomes in couples undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET. Materia…
BackgroundThe ovary is an important organ of the female reproductive system, which produces oocytes and secretes reproductive hormones. Ovaries have complex dual blood supplies with their blood supply being the core component to protect and…
It is important to improve the existing techniques and develop new strategies to prevent bacterial biofilm formation. In this in vitro study, biofilms were established by a clinically isolated strain of Staphylococcus aureus 17546 (t037). D…
To prospectively study the efficacy of different anti-adhesion agents for the prevention of tubal obstruction after recanalization, this trial was approved by our hospital ethics committee. Four hundred patients with fallopian tube obstruct…
The aim of current study was to apply the methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP)-Chip method to investigate dynamic changes in CpG island methylation in human sperm, oocytes and various developmental stages of preimplantation embryos. S…
Effect of laparoscopic myomectomy on the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and the ovarian function of patients with uterine fibroids was studied. Ninety patients with uterine fibroids admitted to Th…
Objective: To evaluate the effects of parthenolide on estradiol-synthesizing enzyme, steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR), and ER isoforms,VEGF in human endometriotic stromal cells. Methods: Primary endometriotic stromal cells were…
Abstract Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two of the most common causes of secondary dysmenorrhea and often lead to a deterioration in the quality of life. Traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture are widely used in the treatment of me…
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has prominent extracellular matrix (ECM) that compromises treatments yet cannot be nonselectively disrupted without adverse consequences. ECM of PDAC, despite the recognition of its importance, has no…
STUDY QUESTION: What is the expression level of T-cadherin in endometriosis, and does T-cadherin play a role in regulating invasion and migration of endometrial stromal cells? SUMMARY ANSWER: T-cadherin expression was reduced in ectopic end…
Overexpression of LIF and IL-6 may synergistically contribute to upregulation of VEGF in ESC and promote development of endometriosis.
PurposeTo investigate the diagnostic values of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) for ovarian tumors.MethodsThe participants were divide…
The serum protein markers of colorectal adenoma in patients with a family history of colorectal cancer have been rarely reported. Serum samples from colorectal adenoma patients with or without a family history of colorectal cancer and healt…
Inhibin B (INHBB), a heterodimer of a common α-subunit and a βB-subunit, is a glycoprotein belonging to the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family. In this study, we observed INHBB expression was reduced in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NP…
MicroRNA (miR)-423-5p is a potential target for the diagnosis and therapy of heart failure and cancer. The present study aimed to investigate the expression and role of miR-423-5p in ovarian cancer. miR-423-5p expression in ovarian tissues …
BackgroundCA125 is a prevalently used serum biomarker for detecting ovarian cancer over the last three decades. However, it has a significant deficiency in screening for early-stage cancer. With the purpose of exploring an effective approac…
Relationship between the methylation status of the RASSF2A gene promoter and endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) was explored. Between January 2013 and January 2016, tissue samples were collected from 30 patients diagnosed with o…
