BACKGROUND: Endometriosis cause decreases in life quality and pelvic pain in reproductive-age women. Methylation abnormalities played a functional role in the progression of endometriosis, this study aimed to explore the mechanisms mediated…

Abstract Wnt/β-catenin signalling contributes to the metastasis and invasion in the etiology and pathogenesis of endometriosis (EMS), but why the WNT pathway is dysregulated in EMS remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects o…

Abstract Background Tuberculosis (TB), a multi-systemic disease with protean presentation, remains a major global health problem. Although concurrent pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) cases are commonly ob…

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for living organisms and plays diverse biological roles. Endometritis is a common reproductive disorder in dairy cows, causing huge economic losses. In this study, we explored the effects of Se on…

The endocannabinoid system regulates neurite outgrowth and neurogenesis during development of the central nervous system. Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R) is expressed in neurons, including the somata and fibers, that innervate the endometrial…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, which shares certain characteristics with cancers, may cause abnormal expression of proteins involved in cell migration. Endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) are believed to play an important role in endometriotic …

Objective To identify functional SNPs in the COX-2 promoter and evaluate its effects on risk of endometriosis.Methods The genomic DNA of each subject was extracted by proteinase K digestion followed by saturated hydroxybenzene/ chloroform p…

[Objective] To investigate the relationship between polymorphism of the cyclooxygenase(COX)-2 gene and endometriosis(EMs),adenomyosis(Ad).[Methods] The genomic DNA of 240 women without gynecologic diseases control group,70 patients with EMs…
