Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) caused by various etiological factors remains a challenge for fertility clinicians using assisted reproductive technology (ART) worldwide. Dysregulation of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) in the endomet…

INTRODUCTION: Pancreatic cancer is a highly lethal malignancy with high invasion metastasis, which is difficult to diagnose and treat. MicroRNA-216b (miR-216b) plays an important role in many types of tumors. In this study, we explore how m…

BACKGROUND: A receptive endometrium is essential for maternal-embryonic molecular communication during implantation. However, the specific molecular regulatory mechanisms of the endometrial capacity remain poorly understood. Here, we examin…

The present study was designed to explore the interrelationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFSF) and its respective receptor superfamily (TNFRSF) genes and Behcet's disease (BD) …

A 48-year-old woman was admitted for pectoralgia and dyspnea. Tomography revealed a giant lung bulla with a mass arose from the bulla wall in the left lower lobes, and left lower lobes pulmonary wedge resection was performed through video-a…

HOXA10 has emerged as an important molecular marker of endometrial receptivity. Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) after in vitro fertilization-embryo transplantation (IVF-ET) treatment is associated with impaired endometrial receptivity,…

BACKGROUND: Decidualization is a prerequisite for successful implantation and the establishment of pregnancy. A critical role of impaired decidualization in subfertility has been established. In human endometrial stromal cells (hESCs), Krüp…

The present study aimed to investigate the role of miR-30c in endometriosis (EMs) and the underlying mechanism. The expression of miR-30c and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) mRNA in EMs tissues was detected by reverse transcr…

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the short-term and long-term outcomes after laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) compared with abdominal hysterectomy (AH) in case of benign gynecological disease. METHODS: A multi-center cohort retrospective comparative …

The progesterone receptor (PR) is a ligand-activated steroid receptor in the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of transcription factor. Besides gynecological and obstetrical indications, the involvement/mechanism of PR in many other disease…

STUDY QUESTION: How do NR4A receptors drive decidualization of human endometrial stromal cells (hESCs)? SUMMARY ANSWER: NR4A receptors modulate endometrial decidualization by transcriptional activation of FOXO1A, and in adenomyosis patient…

STUDY QUESTION: Are endometriotic mesenchymal stem cells (Ecto-MSCs) involved in the fibrosis of ovarian endometrioma? SUMMARY ANSWER: Ecto-MSCs enhanced the fibrotic behavior of stromal cells in ovarian endometrioma through the Wnt/β-cate…

Human endometrium decidualization, which involves endometrial stromal proliferation and differentiation, is a prerequisite for embryo implantation, thus successful pregnancy. The Forkhead Box M1 (FoxM1), previously known as HNF-3, HFH-11, M…

BACKGROUND: The Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (GBD 2013) aims to bring together all available epidemiological data using a coherent measurement framework, standardised estimation methods, and transparent data sources to enable compari…

BACKGROUND: Decidualization is a prerequisite for successful implantation and the establishment of pregnancy. Krüppel-like factor 12 (KLF12) is a negative regulator of endometrial decidualization in vitro. We investigated whether KLF12 was …

A 67-year-old woman who was presented to the gynecologist with a two-month history of heavy vaginal bleeding, after an excisional biopsy of vulvar mass, was diagnosed with the right colon adenocarcinoma metachronous metastasis to the vulva.…

BACKGROUND: The transformation of endometrium into decidua is essential for normal implantation of the blastocyst. However, the post-transcriptional regulation and the miRNAs involved in decidualization remain poorly understood. Here, we ex…

PURPOSE: The phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) pathway is frequently dysregulated in endometrial cancer (EC). Hormonal manipulation leads to response in some patients with EC, but resistance derived from PI3K pathway activation has been docum…

BACKGROUND: It is now recognized that Cimicifuga foetida (C. foetida) extract is effective in alleviating menopausal symptoms. But the durations reported were usually short. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of C. foetida…

p53 is a tumor suppressor gene and plays important roles in the etiology of breast cancer. Studies have produced conflicting results concerning the role of p53 codon 72 polymorphism (G>C) on the risk of breast cancer; therefore, a meta-anal…

BACKGROUND: Homeobox A10 (HOXA10), a key transcription factor, plays a critical role in endometrial receptivity by regulating the expression of downstream target genes, such as β3-integrin (ITGB3), but little is understood about the mechani…

BACKGROUND: China has undergone rapid demographic and epidemiological changes in the past few decades, including striking declines in fertility and child mortality and increases in life expectancy at birth. Popular discontent with the healt…

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the potential association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene with the risk of endometriosis by meta-analysis. METHODS: Published case-control studie…

PURPOSE: To investigate the role of epigenetic inactivation of hMLH1 during the malignant transformation of ovarian endometriosis (EMs), and to explore the relationship between the epigenetic inactivation of hMLH1 in eutopic endometria and …

OBJECTIVE: To study the optimal position and method for ovarian transposition and its benefits and indications. METHODS: We performed ovarian transposition in 34 patients from August 1989 to December 2000. Twelve patients were diagnosed wi…
