BACKGROUND: Spermidine is involved in a wide range of cellular processes, including mammalian oocyte development. Wheat germ is a natural source of polyamines and contains high concentrations of spermidine. However, no studies have evaluate…
ImportanceTonsillectomy has long been scrutinized for its potential long-term impacts on health, with conflicting evidence linking it to increased risks of several diseases, such as cancer, psychiatric disorders, and immune dysfunctions.Obj…
Females with iron overload suffer from follicular dysplasia, and effective therapeutic strategies for preserving fertility remain lacking. As a natural aliphatic polyamine, spermidine exerts antioxidant activity and plays an anti-ferroptosi…
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is widely acknowledged as the prevailing reproductive endocrine disorder accompanied by numerous metabolic dysfunctions. However, there has been a lack of systematic examination regarding the ami…
In female mammals, the proliferation and apoptosis of granulosa cells (GCs) have been shown to determine the fate of follicles. DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and SLCO3A1 have been reported to be involved in the survival of GCs and follicul…
LncRNAs are highly implicated in oxidative stress (OS) during the growth of mammalian follicles. TAK1 binding protein 2 gene (TAB2) has been suggested to involve in the normal apoptosis and proliferation of granulosa cells (GCs), the main s…
BACKGROUND: This prospective randomized controlled study was designed to evaluate the effect of S-ketamine with sufentanil given intraoperatively and postoperatively on recovery of gastrointestinal (GI) function and postoperative pain in gy…
STUDY QUESTION: Can whole exome sequencing (WES) followed by trio bioinformatics analysis identify novel pathogenic genetic causes of first trimester euploid miscarriage? SUMMARY ANSWER: We identified genetic variants in six candidate gene…
