Endometriosis is a common estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease that leads to infertility in women of reproductive age. Perhaps infertility reflects the reduced expression of integrin αvβ3 and HOXA10 in endometriosis. Previous stu…
AIM: Study the effect of low-dose aspirin on the endometrial receptivity in endometriosis rat models. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study is to explore the expressions of progesterone receptor and LIF among three groups of endometriosis rat …
BACKGROUND: Many studies have demonstrated the positive clinical value of progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who underwent assisted reproductive technology. However, the underlying …
Abstract Our previous two-dimensional electrophoresis experiments showed that the expression of LASP1 in patients with endometriosis was significantly higher than that of control endometrium. However, the molecular mechanism by which LASP1 …
AIMS: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas that may affect local tissues or remote organ systems, while severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a life-threatening disorder associated with multiple organ failure. In …
Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is one of the most prevalent reproductive system diseases in females. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are reported to be master regulators in a variety of diseases, including IUA, but the role of microRNA-543 (miR-543) in IUA…
The role of PLAC8 in tumorigenesis has been gradually elucidated with the development of research. Although there are common molecular mechanisms that enforce cell growth, the impact of PLAC8 is varied and can, in some instances, have oppos…
In a healthy body, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants remain balanced. When the balance is broken toward an overabundance of ROS, oxidative stress appears and may lead to oocyte aging. Oocyte aging is mainly reflected as the gra…
Gynecological malignancies are tumors of the female reproductive system, mainly cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, and ovarian cancer. Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecological malignant tumor in developed countries. The ai…
BACKGROUND: Ewing's sarcoma is a common malignant bone tumor in children and young adults. Rarely, extra-skeletal soft tissues and visceral organs can also be the site of origin of Ewing's sarcoma. Primary pulmonary Ewing's sarcoma is an ex…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed at determining the predictive value of human chorionic gonadotropin and progesterone levels on pregnancy outcomes in patients receiving in vitro fertilization due to fallopian tube associated infertility. METHO…
Innate and adaptive immune factors play significant roles in the pathophysiology of endometriosis. T helper 17 (Th17) cells, a pro-inflammatory T cell subset, were considered to contribute to the progression of endometriosis lesions. Howeve…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs), an estrogen-dependent disease, refers to the appearance of mucosa-covered endometrial tissues (glandular and interstitial) growing in the uterine cavity outside the uterine myometrium. It is commonly seen in…
There is emerging evidence that environmental toxicants, in particular endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) such as cadmium and perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), induce Sertoli cell and testis injury, thereby perturbing spermatogenesis in h…
BACKGROUND: Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is a prodrug of a nucleotide analogue. As an antiviral drug, TDF has been proposed in the first-line treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Qingzhong, a brand name of TDF, commercialized by J…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to explore the effects of triptorelin and leuprolide on serum hormone levels and the clinical efficacy of girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP). METHODS: Retrospective analysis was performed o…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is one of the common diseases in women, which seriously affects the quality of life of women. Leuprorelin acetate can control the development of EMS, but long-term use can cause perimenopausal symptoms in wom…
Cardiac hypertrophy, characterized by the enlargement of cardiomyocytes, is initially an adaptive response to physiological and pathological stimuli. Decompensated cardiac hypertrophy is related to fibrosis, inflammatory cytokine, maladapti…
BACKGROUND: down-regulation has been widely used in IVF treatment; however, it lacks reports on the impact of down-regulation on obstetrics and perinatal outcomes. The purpose of this study was to compare the obstetrics and perinatal outcom…
The paper aims to understand the expression of nerve growth factor receptor (TrkA) in the ectopic and entopic endometrium of patients with adenomyosis and dysmenorrhea and, at the same time, explore and analyze the combination of hysterosco…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a debilitating gynecological condition that manifests many common malignant features, including migration and invasion. Hypoxia is a hallmark of endometriosis, characterized by endometrial cell metastasis via ep…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrine disease characterized by persistent anovulation and hyperandrogenism, affecting approximately 8-10% of women of childbearing age and occupying an important position in the …
The optimal protocol for endometrial preparation in patients with infertility remains unclear. Due to this, the current study retrospectively analyzed 1,589 patients with infertility and regular menstrual cycles to assess reproductive outco…
Aim: To investigate exosomal RNAs (long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and messenger RNAs (mRNAs)) profiling and their related networks in endometriosis (EMs). Materials & methods: RNA sequence was performed in exosomes from o…
