Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β is a multifunctional cytokine expressed by almost every tissue and cell type. The signal transduction of TGF-β can stimulate diverse cellular responses and is particularly critical to embryonic development…

PurposeSince the unexplained in vitro fertilization failure occurs frequently, it is of great importance and clinical value to identify potential underlying predictors. This study aimed to explore whether the percentage of sperm with a smal…

Defective decidualization of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) in endometriosis (EM) patients leads to inadequate endometrial receptivity and EM-associated infertility. Hypoxia is an inevitable pathological process of EM and participates in …

We present a rare case of a female pelvic solitary fibrous tumor unsuccessfully resected using single-port laparoscopy, requiring conversion to laparotomy. Although the resection was successful, the surgical approach could have been improve…

PurposeTo analyze the clinical characteristics of abdominal pregnancy, and to explore the diagnosis and prognosis of different treatment methods.MethodsThe cases of patients with abdominal pregnancy admitted to Peking Union Medical College …

BackgroundAccurate preoperative assessment of the efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for uterine fibroids is essential for good treatment results. The aim of this study was to develop robust radiomics models for p…

Abstract Purpose Ovarian epithelial malignant tumor spreads directly and easily spreads to the serous surface of the uterus. However, whether invasion and metastasis occur in the uterine parenchyma is unknown. Its metastasis rate and its re…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. The immune-checkpoint molecules CD226 and TIGIT play an important role in regulating T cells' function. However, little is known about the proportion and function of CD226 and TIGIT on CD4+ T…

Adenomyosis is a benign gynaecological disease caused by the growth of endometrial tissue in the myometrium that affects approximately 30 % of child-bearing-age women. We evaluated the levels of soluble human leukocyte antigen G (sHLA-G) in…

Endometrial cancer (EC) is a major gynecological malignancy with rising morbidity and mortality worldwide. The aim of this study was to explore a safe and readily available sample and a sensitive and effective detection method and its bioma…

Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common complication, that can reduce patient satisfaction and may lead to serious consequences, such as wound dehiscence. Many strategies have been proposed to prevent PONV; however,…

Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is the fibrosis within the uterine cavity. It is the second most common cause of female infertility, significantly affecting women's physical and mental health. Current treatment strategies fail to provide a sati…

OBJECTIVES: The study investigated the stem cell expression profiles and differentiation capacities of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from different tissues, specifically human eutopic endometrium MSCs (eut-MSCs), ectopic endometrium MSCs (e…

AIMS: With an ambiguous anti-proliferative mechanism, the combination of ferulic acid, ligustrazine, and tetrahydropalmatine (FLT) shows good anti-endometriosis (EMS) activity. In EMS, the expression of Notch pathway and its role in prolife…

The fertility of females of childbearing age who are cured of cancer by chemotherapy is gradually declining globally. As a broad-spectrum chemotherapy drug in clinic, the damage of cisplatin (CDDP) to female reproductive function cannot be …

ObjectiveTo simulate hysteroscopic suturing in vitro and analyze the learning curve of gynecologists with different experience levels.MethodsThree gynecologists were trained on uterine models in a circulating water box. The posterior uterin…

Endometriosis (EMT) is a prevalent gynecological disorder characterized by pain and infertility associated with the menstrual cycle. Pyroptosis, an emerging cell death mechanism, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diverse diseases, …

Immune dysregulation has long been proposed to be associated with adenomyosis, but the underlying mediators and mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Here, we used flow cytometry to investigate the alterations in immune cell subsets in aden…

Benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) is a chemical softener and plasticizer commonly used in toys, food packaging, wallpaper, detergents and shampoos. The estrogenic actions of BBP have detrimental effects on humans and animals. In this study, the …

The eutopic endometrium provides novel insights into endometriotic pathophysiology and treatment. However, no in vivo models currently available are suitable for eutopic endometrium in endometriosis. In this study, we present new endometrio…

This study reports the outcomes of an innovative fertility-preserving surgery for the treatment of diffuse adenomyosis that is known as a surgery for protection of uterine structure for healing (PUSH Surgery). Developed at Peking University…

Macrophages are highly heterogeneous and plastic, and have two main polarized phenotypes that are determined by their microenvironment, namely pro- and anti-inflammatory macrophages. Activation of pro-inflammatory macrophages is closely ass…

Electrochemical immunosensors have attracted immense attention due to the ease of mass electrode production and the high compatibility of the miniature electric reader, which is beneficial for developing point-of-care diagnostic devices. El…
