BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a systemic gynecological disorder affecting ~ 10% of reproductive-aged women and shares pathophysiological features with cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, its associations with cardiac remodeling and CVD ri…

Recent studies have highlighted the crucial role of mechanical properties in the ovarian microenvironment for ovarian function. However, the mechanisms that cause ovarian matrix stiffening during aging remain incompletely understood. Here w…

Abstract Background Endometriosis is a systemic gynecological disorder that affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and shares certain pathophysiological features with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Despite this, the connecti…

The ovary is a crucial gonadal organ that supports female reproductive and endocrine functions. Ovarian aging can result in decreased fertility and dysfunction across multiple organs. Research has demonstrated that cellular senescence in va…

Abnormal apoptosis both maintains endometrial cell growth and induces endometrial pathogenesis. The etiology of endometriosis is unclear and no treatment is curative. Therefore, the aim herein was to identify genes involved in the pathogene…

Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS) has changed gynecologic care over the past thirty years by introducing techniques like multiport laparoscopy, robotic-assisted laparoscopy, and single-site surgery. MIGS offers advantages like r…

Limited understanding exists regarding how aging impacts the cellular and molecular aspects of the human ovary. This study combines single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to systematically characterize human ovarian aging. S…

Endometriosis, often associated with chronic pelvic pain, can lead to anxiety and depression. This study investigates the role and mechanism of Glycine receptor alpha 3 (Glrα3) in the central sensitization of pain in endometriosis, aiming t…

Study questionDoes cancer itself, before any gonadotoxic treatment, affect ovarian function in reproductive-aged patients?Summary answerOur study revealed that women with cancer may have decreased ovarian reserve markers even before cancer …

Comprehensively understanding the female reproductive system is crucial for safeguarding fertility and preventing diseases concerning women's health. With the capacity to simulate the intricate physio- and patho-conditions, and provide diag…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the recurrence rate and risk factors between conservative surgery followed by medical treatments and conservative surgery-only in patients with focal adenomyosis. METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted in a s…

BACKGROUND: The preservation of fertility and integrity of the reproductive organs has increasingly been of concern to most women with adenomyosis. Adenomyomectomy is conservative surgery that is now widely applied; however, relapse is a se…

Abstract Background: To preserve fertility or integrity of organs was on the rise for the most women with adenomyosis. Adenomyomectomy is now a widely applied conservative surgery, however relapse is a serious problem after operation. Posto…

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a unique class of endogenous RNAs which could be used as potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of many diseases. Our study aimed to investigate circRNA profiles in human granulosa cells (GCs) during mat…

The recent characterization of stem/progenitor cells in the endometrium has shed new light for pathogenesis of endometriosis. The present study was undertaken to investigate the role of Notch1, known as a cell fate regulator, in the mechani…

Endometriosis, regarded as a complex disease, is influenced by multiple genetic factors. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in endometriosis have identified several susceptibility loci in Caucasian and Japanese populations. Howe…

Endometriosis is a complex disease that is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. In endometriosis, WNT4 plays a likely role owing to its biological functions. In this study, the TaqMan allelic discrimination technique was used to…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of forkhead box P3 gene (FOXP3) and endometriosis in Chinese Han women from central China. METHODS: MassARRAY IPLEX and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ion…

Endometriosis is a steroid-dependent complex disease. The oestrogen receptor plays an important role by mediating oestrogen action and eutopic or ectopic endometrium development. This study investigated whether single-nucleotide polymorphis…
