Adenomyosis is a common benign uterine lesion that is associated with female infertility, reduced clinical pregnancy rate and high miscarriage risk. While it has been known that the impaired endometrial receptivity is implicated in infertil…
OBJECTIVE: The present study aimed to evaluate pregnancy and neonatal outcomes in women, with a previous history of wedge resection for interstitial pregnancy, in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles of IVF/ICSI. METHODS: The present…
This investigation probed endometriosis treatment using targeted nanoparticles (NPs) to modulate autophagic activity. To that end, a novel form of polymer-based NP gene delivery platform consisting of polyethyleneimine (PEI) conjugated to s…
BACKGROUND: Mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) is a recently characterized, rare, and aggressive neoplasm that mostly arises in the uterine corpus and ovary. MLA shows characteristic pathological features similar to mesonephric adenocarc…
INTRODUCTION: Magnetic resonance-high intensity focused ultrasound (MR-HIFU) has revolutionized the treatment of Uterine fibroids. Usually, they are associated with prolonged heavy bleeding during the menstrual period, sacral pain, and incr…
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder affecting reproductive age females and an important cause of infertility. Although the etiology is complex and its pathogenesis remains unclear, the patholog…
Combinations of direct-acting antivirals are needed to minimize drug resistance mutations and stably suppress replication of RNA viruses. Currently, there are limited therapeutic options against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronav…
KiSS-1, first identified as an anti-metastasis gene in melanoma, encodes C-terminally amidated peptide products, including kisspeptin-145, kisspeptin-54, kisspeptin-14, kisspeptin-13 and kisspeptin-10. These products are endogenous ligands …
BACKGROUND: Telocytes (TCs), a novel interstitial cell type in the reproductive tract, participating in pathophysiology of intrauterine adhesions (IUA). This study further investigates the hypothesis that TCs, a source of Wnt, promote the r…
AIMS: Most therapeutic drugs of endometriosis have been contraceptives but symptoms recur in up to 75% of cases, which makes it a presses need to try to find novel and safer therapeutic drugs. Imperatorin is a furanocoumarin existing in man…
BACKGROUND: Most prior studies investigating the risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm (ROMA) with cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) have involved Caucasian population or other populations. To date, there have b…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EMs) is associated with severe chronic pelvic pain and infertility and the development of improved EMs treatment options is an ongoing focus. In this study, we investigated the effects of resveratrol on EMs and …
Objective: Gynaecologic benign diseases such uterine fibroids share similar pathogeneses with endometrial and ovarian cancers. Whether a history of uterine fibroids increases the risk of developing endometrial or ovarian cancers is controve…
BACKGROUND: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic malignancy worldwide. Polymorphisms in MALAT1 have been demonstrated to play critical roles in cancer. However, the roles of MALAT1 polymorphisms in the etiology of endometrial c…
Endometriosis is an inflammatory gynecological disorder characterized by endometrial tissue growth located outside of the uterine cavity in addition to chronic pelvic pain and infertility. In this study, we aim to develop a potential therap…
BACKGROUND: Previous cesarean scar defect (PCSD) is a gynecological disease that can cause bleeding after intercourse, prolonging menstrual period, intermenstrual bleeding, dysmenorrhea, and even lead to infertility. Chinese herbal medicine…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of ginsenoside Rg3 on human ectopic endometriotic stromal cells in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ectopic endometrial tissue specimens were obtained from 6 female patients with ovarian endometriosis who…
BACKGROUND: Poor ovarian responders generally refer to patients who respond poorly to ovarian stimulation for assisted reproductive techniques (ART) such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and hence experience low live birth rate. Various cont…
H2 has shown anti-inflammatory and antioxidant ability in many clinical trials, and its application is recommended in the latest Chinese novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) treatment guidelines. Clinical experiments have revealed the surprisi…
Hydrogen exhibits therapeutic and preventive effects against various diseases. The present study investigated the potential protective effect and dose‑dependent manner of hydrogen inhalation on high fat and fructose diet (HFFD)‑induced nona…
OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is considered as a serious gynaecological disease in women at a reproductive age. Lower body mass index (BMI) is thought to be a risk factor. However, recent studies indicated that women with normal BMI were also mo…
Corneal neovascularization (CNV) is a sight-threatening disease usually associated with inflammatory, infectious, degenerative, and traumatic disorders of the ocular surface. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family members play an important r…
Endometriosis is a common estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, which causes infertility and pelvic pain. Polymorphisms in MALAT1 have been demonstrated …
Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that contain diverse components such as genetic materials, proteins, and lipids. Owing to their distinct derivation and tissue specificity, exosomes act as double-edged swords during the development of ne…
