Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent a class of versatile molecules that exhibit the potential to regulate gene expression at various levels, namely transcriptional, post‑transcriptional and epigenetic, thereby influencing critical cell…
This meta-analysis aimed to determine the accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing urinary tract endometriosis (UTE). A comprehensive search of the Pubmed and Embase was conducted b…

BACKGROUND: Establishing a successful pregnancy depends on the endometrium and the embryo. It is estimated that suboptimal endometrial receptivity account for one-third of implantation failures. Despite the indepth understanding of the proc…
Well-orchestrated maternal-fetal cross talk occurs via secreted ligands, interacting receptors, and coupled intracellular pathways between the conceptus and endometrium and is essential for successful embryo implantation. However, previous …
Objectives: Endometrial peristalsis (EP) in non-pregnant uterine can be assessed by visual assessment of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS). However, visual assessment is subjective, and the outcome depends on the sonographers and video analyst…
BACKGROUND: Malignant transformation of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) invading the cervix and rectum is quite rare, especially in patients combined with Lynch syndrome (LS). We report a rare case of a 49-year-old perimenopausal woma…
BACKGROUND: In frozen embryo transfer (FET), there is limited consensus on the best means of endometrial preparation in terms of the reproductive outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The present study aimed to compare th…
Abstract Objectives Previous studies demonstrated that endometriosis and adenomyosis are closely linked to lots of adverse pregnancy outcomes while the role of endometriosis in pregnant women with adenomyosis has not been explored yet. The …
Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease. Accumulating evidence has revealed the participation of dysregulated miRNAs in the progression of endometriosis. Here, the function and molecular mechanism of miR-143-3p in endometriosis were…
BACKGROUND: The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis (EM) and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association between TOA a…
Abstract Background Ovary is the most common organ site involved by endometriosis. We previously found that fallopian tube may contribute to the histogenesis of ovarian endometriosis. The finding was novel and requires further studies. We …
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a member of the neurotrophin family, plays critical roles in the physiological process of oocyte mature and IVF outcomes of patients with infertility. However, the regulation of BDNF expression in t…
Studies suggest that the presence of endometriosis may lead to impaired ovarian reserve, while results evaluating the changes in antral follicle count (AFC) in endometriosis remain controversial. A systematic search returned 15 studies, of …
Abstract Background : The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association between …
Abstract Background : The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis (EM) and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association bet…

To investigate the expression and clinical significance of nucleoside diphosphate kinase A (nm23-H1), p53, and integrin β1 in endometriosis, normal and ectopic endometrial tissues were collected and the levels of nm23-H1, p53, and integrin …
Recent advances suggest the fallopian tube as the main anatomic site for high-grade ovarian or pelvic serous carcinoma (O/PSC). Many studies on the biologic role of tubal secretory cells in O/PSC development has been performed in the last d…
The role of leptin in the development of endometriosis has been investigated previously. However, researches on the change of leptin levels in endometriosis remains controversial. So, we aimed to clarify changes of leptin levels in patients…

OBJECTIVE: Uterine carcinosarcomas (UCSs) are aggressive rare tumors recognized as malignancies composed of metaplastic transformation of epithelial elements. Nay no comprehensive molecular classification has been applied to UCS to guide ta…
OBJECTIVE: Ovarian low-grade serous carcinomas are thought to evolve in a stepwise fashion from ovarian epithelial inclusions, serous cystadenomas, and serous borderline tumors. Our previous study with clinicopathological approach showed th…
The present study aimed to screen natural products with anti-angiogenic potential from the Natural Products Collection of MicroSource. The anti-angiogenic activity of 240 natural products was assessed using the zebrafish line Tg(fli1a: EGFP…
