BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is frequently associated with compromised embryo implantation. The leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway is crucial for endometrial recepti…

Blood-based liquid biopsies hold transformative potential for non-invasive cancer management, but current approaches relying on rare circulating tumor components limit their broad clinical utility. Platelets, abundant in blood and mediating…

Despite recent advancements in diagnostic techniques and infertility treatments, the precise underlying cause of infertility remains elusive in numerous cases. Elevated immune cell levels in the reproductive tract frequently result in decre…

The emergence of organoids has received widespread attention for faithful recapitulation of physiological and pathological conditions, together with overcoming the major bottleneck of extrapolating laboratory findings from model systems to …

BACKGROUND: Oocyte vitrification, a widely utilized assisted reproductive technology for fertility preservation, can address emergencies arising from the unavailability of sperm from the male partner on the day of oocyte retrieval. However,…

The unique physiological structure of women has led to a variety of diseases that have attracted the attention of many people in recent years. Disturbances in the reproductive system microenvironment lead to the progression of various femal…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects women of reproductive age. The current hormonal treatments are unsuitable for women who wish to conceive, highlighting the need for non-hormonal therapeutic alternatives…

OBJECTIVE: To address the relation among pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), genetic vulnerability and ovarian cancer (OC) risk, we assessed the association between PID and OC risk, alongside the interplay with germline homologous recombinat…

BACKGROUND: Cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common type of cervical carcinoma. Usually, the cancer metastasizes through lymphatic or hematogenous dissemination. However, it is uncommon for a superficial spreading of cervi…

OBJECTIVE: This review aims to conduct a comprehensive study of the diagnostic accuracy of interleukin-6 (IL-6) for multiple diseases by utilizing existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses. METHODS: We performed a thorough search of Em…

The oocytes of female mammals will undergo aging after ovulation, also known as postovulatory oocyte aging (POA). Until now, the mechanisms of POA have not been fully understood. Although studies have shown that cumulus cells accelerate POA…

Single-cell omics is the profiling of individual cells through sequencing and other technologies including high-throughput analysis for single-cell resolution, cell classification, and identification as well as time series analyses. Unlike …

Objective: To determine the cause and high-risk factors for the development of intestinal fistulas (IFs) after ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MA) of abdominopelvic lesions, and to identify effective prophylactic and therapeutic actio…

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine; MLT) has been shown to have a renal-protective effect against kidney injury. However, the mechanisms underlying the protective role of MLT in sepsis-induced renal injury are yet to be revealed. In th…

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to screen the leading compounds of natural origin with anti-angiogenic potential and to investigate their anti-angiogenic mechanism preliminarily. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An initial screening of 240 c…

Recently, evidences show that cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a type of cancer cell group with self-renewal and play a huge role in tumor recurrence, metastasis, and drug resistance. Finding new treatment directions and targets for cancer prog…

Abstract The authors have withdrawn this preprint from Research Square

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…
