OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether Angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) ameliorates endometriosis (EMT) by suppressing oxidative stress and restoring autophagy via the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)/nuclear factor erythroid 2…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is characterized by pain symptoms that seriously affect patients' quality of life. Gut microbiome-related metabolites (GMRM) play an important role in the process of EMS. However, the role of GMRM in endometr…

Currently, hormonal therapy for endometriosis faces challenges in achieving a balance between treatment and preserving the chance of pregnancy. Therefore, the development of non-hormonal therapy holds significant clinical importance. Angiog…

Multifunctional small-molecule theranostic agents hold significant clinical potential for non-invasive endometriosis (EMS) management. Current EMS treatment faces challenges due to imprecise lesion localization and therapy-associated side e…

Background: Endometriosis (EMS), which affects >10% of women, is characterized by painful symptoms, such as dysmenorrhea. Meanwhile, the gut microbiota is linked to EMS; however, the relationship between the gut microbiota and EMS-related p…

An increasing number of research have suggested that ferroptosis plays an important role in endometriosis (EMS). This study was to identify a ferroptosis-related diagnosis gene in EMS by using bioinformatics. R Bioconductor package limma wa…

This study aimed to identify risk and protective factors for postoperative recurrence of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). We analyzed 320 patients undergoing laparoscopic excision with ≥ 6 years follow-up at the First Affiliated Hospi…

Objective: This report summarizes the characteristics of a series of 8 recent (2020-2022) patients with abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) who underwent laparoscopic surgery. The feasibility and advantages of laparoscopy in the treatment of…

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to comprehensively investigate the potential genetic link between periodontitis and adverse pregnancy outcomes using a two-sample Mendelian Randomization approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We employed robust genet…

BACKGROUND: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a known regulator of the development and maintenance of chronic pain in various chronic disorders. Together with its high-affinity tyrosine kinase type B (TrKB) receptor, BDNF is exten…

Background: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and exosomes are implicated in endometriosis development. We measured the expression of an exosomal lncRNA, homeobox transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR), and explored its molecular mechanism in endomet…

Abstract Background: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been recognized as a regulator in the formation and maintenance of chronic pain in various chronic disorders. BDNF together with its high-affinity tyrosine kinase type B (Trk…
