PPM1A (magnesium-dependent phosphatase 1 A, also known as PP2Cα) is a member of the Ser/Thr protein phosphatase family. Protein phosphatases catalyze the removal of phosphate groups from proteins via hydrolysis, thus opposing the role of pr…
The metastasis of malignant tumors determines patient prognosis. This is the main reason for the poor prognosis of patients with cancer and the most challenging aspect of treating malignant tumors. Therefore, it is important to identify ear…
Numerous case reports of acute pancreatitis (AP) induced by olanzapine have been published. Little is, however, known about the clinical features of olanzapine-induced AP. The aim of the study was to explore the clinical characteristics of …
INTRODUCTION: This phase 3, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multicenter study investigated the efficacy of triptorelin pamoate prolonged-release (PR) 3-month in Chinese patients with endometriosis by demonstrating the noninferior…
AimTo identify the association between serum beta-2-microglobulin (B2M) or cystatin C (CysC) and asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA).MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, 265 subjects were enroll…
BackgroundAnembryonic pregnancy (AP) is the most severe dysmorphogenesis of human embryo development and a frequent presentation of early pregnancy loss (EPL). Studies have analyzed the association between assisted reproductive technologies…
Carnitine metabolism is thought to be negatively correlated with the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the specific molecular mechanism is yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we report that little characterized cysteine-rich p…
BACKGROUND: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a common complication following vaginal delivery and in severe cases can lead to maternal death. A straightforward predictive model is required to enable prenatal evaluations by obstetricians to pr…
ObjectiveElective single embryo transfer (eSET) has been increasingly advocated to achieve the goal of delivering a single healthy baby. A novel endometrial preparation approach down-regulation ovulation-induction (DROI) proposed by our tea…
BackgroundRecurrent implantation failure (RIF) in the majority of patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is caused by various factors such as maternal age, embryo quality, endometrial receptivity (ER), and i…
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic gynecological disease that affects women of childbearing age. However, the exact cause remains unclear. The uterus is a highly vascularized organ that continuously exposes endometrial cells to high oxygen co…
Emerging evidence suggests that excess iron accumulates in endometriotic and adenomyotic lesions. However, the role iron overload plays in the pathogenesis of endometriosis or adenomyosis remains unknown. Primary human eutopic endometrial s…
LncRNAs are involved in the pathophysiologic processes of multiple diseases, but little is known about their functions in hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI). As a novel lncRNA, the pathogenetic significance of hepatic nuclear factor…
PURPOSE: Catenin Beta 1 (CTNNB1) is a key regulator of cell proliferation and invasion in endometriosis; however, its upstream factor is not clear. Long noncoding RNAs may participate in endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investiga…
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a troublesome hygienic problem that afflicts the female population and is associated with extracellular matrix (ECM). Herein, we investigated the effects of microRNA (miR)-34a on ECM metabolism in fibrob…
Intraperitoneal (i.p.) experimental models in mice can recapitulate the process of i.p. dissemination in abdominal cancers and may help uncover critical information about future successful clinical treatments. i.p. cellular composition is s…
BackgroundA large number of our previous studies showed that endogenous glutamate and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) activation may be involved in various types of acute lung injury, airway inflammation, asthma, and pulmonary fibrosi…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine-related cause of infertility in women and has an unknown etiology. Studies have shown that rhamnocitrin (Rha) exhibits positive effects on the reproductive system. This study investigat…
A dysregulated immune microenvironment at the maternal-fetal interface in early pregnancy may lead to early pregnancy loss, fetal growth restriction, and preeclampsia. However, major questions about how epigenetic modifications regulate the…
Ischemic stroke (IS) is a severe disease with a high disability, recurrence, and mortality rates. Autophagy, a highly conserved process that degrades damaged or aging organelles and excess cellular components to maintain homeostasis, is act…
BackgroundGut microbes were closely related to women's health. Previous studies reported that the gut microbes of premenopausal women were different from those of postmenopausal women. However, little was known about the relationship betwee…
In a normal pregnancy, maternal circulatory system presents a hypercoagulable state due to the effect of hormone secretion. Even minor variations in fibrinolytic system could lead to hyper- or hypofibrinolysis, affecting placental formation…
MicroRNAs are noncoding small RNAs that regulate gene expression posttranscriptionally. They act as a key role not only in the body development but also in many human diseases, including malignant tumors. With evidence of the complex role o…
BackgroundTo determine differences in endometrial cavity anteroposterior diameter, thickness, volume, and diameter lines of uterine body and thickness, and volume of upper, middle, and lower regions of the endometrium in infertile women usi…
ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to systematically summarize and form an expert consensus on the theoretical experience of tongue and facial features for the identification of nine types of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) constitution.…
