BACKGROUND The microbiome is the collection of all micro-organisms and their genes, which naturally live in and on the body. The cervical and endometrial bacterial microbiome has previously been reported to affect fertility and influence th…

Abstract Study question The endometrial microbiome, in addition to other parameters of inflammation (CD138 presence, NK bright fraction presence), may be a complementary marker of ongoing local inflammation. Summary answer Presented results…

PurposeTumor necrosis factor exerts many adverse biological effects, from cell proliferation to cell death. Accurate diagnosis and treatment are therefore difficult due to many factors influencing tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) signali…

One promising research trend involves evaluating the influence of microbiota in the reproductive system of women on becoming pregnant and maintaining pregnancy. The goal of this study was to define the microflora profile of the endometrium …

Biogenic amines, such as adrenaline, noradrenaline, histamine, dopamine, and serotonin are important neurotransmitters that also regulate cell viability. Their detection and analysis are helpful in the diagnosis of many diseases, including …

Disruption of the dopaminergic system leads to many diseases, including cancer. Dopamine and its receptors are involved in the regulation of proliferation, cell death, invasion, and migration. Better understanding of the mechanisms involved…

Research has indicated higher concentrations of histamine and polyamine in endometrioid tissue in comparison with healthy tissue. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in the expression patterns of messenger RNA (mRNAs) and microRNA…

BackgroundOxidative stress appears to be involved in oocyte growth and maturation that when impaired results in poor embryo quality and lower potential to implant. The biochemical microenvironment of the oocyte (follicular fluid (FF)) consi…

BackgroundAnti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is considered to be one of the most significant indicators of women's fertility. Many studies have shown that vitamin D may modify human reproductive functions; however, the results are conflicting. Th…
