Mammalian STE20-like kinase 1 (Mst1) is well recognized as a major tumor suppressor in cancer development, growth, metabolic reprogramming, metastasis, cell death and recurrence. However, the roles of Mst1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSC…
The effect of endometriosis on fecundity is unclear. Although surgery plays a vital role in the treatment of related infertility, pregnancy outcomes after laparoscopy are poorly correlated with the currently used staging system. To address …
Among the variety of treatment options to improve reproductive outcomes for infertile women with adenomyosis (AD), uterine-conserving surgery has shown varying success. Hence, we conducted a systematic review around the topic of fertility-s…
