The fundamental morphology of the endometrial glands is not sufficiently understood by 2D observation because these glands have complicated winding and branching patterns. To construct a large picture of the endometrial gland structure, we …

IN BRIEF: By tissue-selective next-generation sequencing, we showed that adenomyotic epithelium harbored genomic alterations thought to be relevant to the development and progression of adenomyosis, including somatic mutations in several ca…

BACKGROUND Juxtaglomerular (JG) cells are sensors that control blood pressure (BP) and fluid-electrolyte homeostasis. They are arranged as clusters at the tip of each afferent arteriole. In response to a decrease in BP or extracellular flu…

It has become evident that somatic mutations in cancer-associated genes accumulate in the normal endometrium, but spatiotemporal understanding of the evolution and expansion of mutant clones is limited. To elucidate the timing and mechanism…

KRAS is the most frequently mutated in ovarian endometriosis. However, it is unclear whether the KRAS mutant allele's mRNA is expressed and plays a biological role in ovarian endometriosis. Here, we performed mutation-specific RNA in situ h…

Numerous epidemiological and histopathological studies support the notion that clear cell and endometrioid carcinomas derive from ovarian endometriosis. Accordingly, these histologic types are referred to as “endometriosis-associated ovaria…

The histology of the endometrium has traditionally been established by observation of two-dimensional (2D) pathological sections. However, because human endometrial glands exhibit coiling and branching morphology, it is extremely difficult …

The fundamental morphology of the endometrial glands is not sufficiently understood by 2D observation because these glands have complicated winding and branching patterns. To construct a large picture of the endometrial gland structure, we …

ARID1A loss-of-function mutation accompanied by a loss of ARID1A protein expression is considered one of the most important driver events in endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. Although our recent genomic study clarified that ARID1A lo…

Summary The histological basis of the human uterine endometrium has been established by 2D observation. However, the fundamental morphology of endometrial glands is not sufficiently understood because these glands have complicated winding a…
