BACKGROUND: In mammals, precise regulation of primordial follicle activation is essential for maintaining the female reproductive lifespan. In this study, we demonstrated that the vitamin D receptor (VDR) is expressed in both pre-granulosa …
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is characterized by pain symptoms that seriously affect patients' quality of life. Gut microbiome-related metabolites (GMRM) play an important role in the process of EMS. However, the role of GMRM in endometr…
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a critical condition that poses a significant threat to patient safety. The production of lactate increases during the process of IRI, and lactate serves as a crucial indicator for assessing the severity…
MicroRNAs play crucial roles in regulating inflammatory responses and disease progression. Since its identification on chromosome 17q11.2 in 2005, miR-451 has emerged as a key regulator of multiple physiological and pathological processes. …
BACKGROUND: Vitamins, as essential trace organic compounds for the human body, are crucial substances in the maintenance of normal reproductive function. Nevertheless, the effects of vitamins on the activation of primordial follicles and th…
BACKGROUND: Primordial follicle activation is vital for the reproduction of women with advanced age and premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). But there is a lack of effective and safe therapeutic options to activate their primordial follic…
Accumulating oxidative damage is a primary driver of ovarian reserve decline along with aging. However, the mechanism behind the imbalance in reactive oxygen species (ROS) is not yet fully understood. Here we investigated changes in iron me…
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) for the treatment of an adenomyosis model of Bama pigs and the changes in the level …
OBJECTIVE: The clinical application of magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) surgery for treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids is often limited because of the bowel between the abdominal wall and uterus. If bowel…
